Exploring the Impact of Technology on Modern Relationships

In our tech-driven world, I've been reflecting on how technology influences our relationships. From social media to constant connectivity, it's fascinating to observe the dynamics between modern couples.

The Role of Social Media:
Social platforms have transformed the way we share our lives. While it brings us closer in some ways, does it also create a curated version of our relationships? Are we sacrificing genuine moments for the sake of online appearances?

Texting in the Digital Age:
Texting has become a staple in our communication. It's convenient, but does it sometimes lack the depth of face-to-face conversations? Are our relationships becoming more transactional, with the absence of tone and nuance in written messages?

Constant Connectivity:
Smartphones have made us constantly available. While it fosters a sense of security, does it also set unrealistic expectations? How do we navigate the balance between personal space and the desire for continuous connection?

The Evolution of Dating:
Dating apps have changed the game in meeting potential partners. The ease of swiping has its benefits, but does it risk turning love into a numbers game? Are we losing the magic of organic connections for the convenience of a digital match?

I'm pretty done with all of it. Back when I had IG I had a friend tell me she was done with me because I wouldn't look at the things she sent to me on there. She wouldn't answer when I called, wouldn't hang out with me, but couldn't be friends because I wouldn't respond on social media. Online dating is nightmare. I hate the texting rules. I don't even understand. I think it's turned us into tiny islands.
