High Tech Relationships!!

Gone are the days of sweet talk. Gone are the papers of sweet words. Gone are the days of fishball dates. Welcome to the time of techno relationships! Where you can break up with just changing the status of your facebook page to "single".

I'm single. I don't want to be double anyway. What am I? Pregnant?  Anyway, we are in the transition from letters to emails, telegrams to texts, and simple time spent together to: webcam chats. Even shopping has gone online. The povertyphone has awarded Kristen Dalton (miss USA 2009) as an online junkie by shopping online. a lot.

Okay so, when most goes online, everything follows. Yes, including relationships. A lot, if not many, young guys and young gals do not know how to express feelings verbally any longer. I mean, they prefer looking for mates using text messaging and adding them to their friendster or myspace or facebook or whatever. Boys, being the presumed dominant figure, do not feel comfortable around who they like, since they are accustomed to saying "I LOVE YOU"  or 'I like you' over the phone, in SMS form, or over the internet. Girls on the same hand, do not know how to react or respond to the revelations, if there are any.

love the way you put it. in this tech savvy world, we have become less tactful in situations in reality. everything's virtual. including our brains.
