Technology has no doubt made it easier to connect with other individuals who are longing for a partner as well, but it has also made us soooooo immensely lazy. Romance was thriving in prior generations, and the way people maintain their relationships today, it makes you wonder, does romance still even exist?
However, being in a long term relationship before, I admit that I loved the luxury of being able to talk to my significant other 24/7 through text messages and calls, but technology could also be dangerous in a relationship too.
The factor that technology has made it so easy to find a partner or someone looking for a good time, has also made it that much easier for partners to cheat or talk to other partners behind their own partners back. In relationships decades ago, in order to cheat you would actually have to make the effort to go out in public and actually meet another person...
Technology is something that will not go away ANYTIME soon, in fact, it has only been advancing.
Technology can also be sneaky, so watch out for it and its many many features.
I do not even know how someone could be attracted to the idea of dating online or seeking something out of the internet. How is one supposed to emulate or recreate love through technology? It's absolutely impossible, and I am in fear that it will only get worse. I also feel that a lot of our generation does not even realize. "Love" is becoming something of the past.
ReplyDeleteI 100% agree with your statement that our generation does not realize that the idea of "love" is dying and becoming a thing of the past. People don't even look for love anymore anyway...they just look for hookups and basically just sex. I feel as if no one seeks genuine companionship anymore. It's sad.
