It is so important getting everyone to like you facebook or twitter so you get a golden star. No one want’s to talk to each other private behind closed doors now everyone knows your business everyday about your relationships. If a person has dirty secrets look at the internet because I can bet my dollar that someone on this planet has expressed whatever on their mind. I wonder do relationships really exist or does technology ruin your relationship. Communication was the key in a relationship you remember those days when two people get together and talk about good days or their bad days. If two people got into arguments they would talk it out together even when they had cell phones or pager. Now it is like two people come together not for love, holding hands, helping each other, but both people have their cell phone so close to their heart it is crazy. You might as well married your cell phone then your spouse then if it is so important to you anyway. Technology, the cause of relationships downfall it is so sad a lot of people do not see that.
