Impact of Technology on Relationships
Technology has a negative effect on human relationships in a few ways. Due to our phones being constant distractions, we allow ourselves to block out everyone and everything, including a possible romantic partner. When we are on our phones and the couple is texting, there are often times where one of the partners do not understand the tone or feeling of the text being sent. This leads to the biggest issue, which is having relationships, but not seeing or touching each other nearly as much as they should. Humans require some communication and touch, but these phones serve as such huge distractions and necessities, which is a problem that causes break ups or divorce. As weird as it may sound, humans need touch, and a hug is more significant than an emoji sent. Unfortunately, this has been an ongoing thing for years now, and there doesn't seem to be a clear solution in finding ways to use less technology when involved in a serious relationship.

Our biggest problem is that we don't focus enough on our significant other. We are more interested in what someone posted than what our partner has to say or their well being. I definitely agree that the feeling of touch in a relationship is extremely important. The only thing us humans have that are different from machines are our emotions. And the rate we are going, I'm not sure were going to be able to keep them for much longer.
