The touch of technology in Love

It says that love is beautiful if you are with the right person. In case you are with the wrong person, then it will give the feeling of hell, and it ends up giving endless pain. So, the right person is important because it matters only. In the past, we heard a few love stories, most of which were beautiful stories, although the communication was not so good then.

We are living in a technological world, and it has made a significant impact in every case, and in the case of relationships, it is not different either. Now communication has become very smooth, and it's just a matter of a few touches on a smartphone. If we want to talk with anyone, we can easily call and text them. Now we have Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter (currently X), and so many social applications for smooth communications. Technology made an impact on every kind of relationship, but today I will limit myself to love as well as romantic relationships.

When it comes to expressing love, people used to be shy and face a lot of difficulties in confessing it face to face. It was the same in the past also, and many people chose to express it through love letters. In that case, both of them needed to know each other and needed to meet face-to-face. Because of the lack of a good communication system, the meeting was not so frequent. The gap between meetings was very helpful to confirm their feelings towards each other. When something is hard to get, it makes humans more desperate. So the feeling was very pure, and in case of betrayal, the chance was rare. Arranging a date at that time was hard but in case of feeling that it was genuine and confirmed.

Let's come back to the present time. Communication is no longer an issue. Talking with a favorite person is a matter of a few seconds. The people who can't confess their love face-to-face can choose the text/messaging options. It's very simple and easy. Because of social media, now we can communicate with various kinds of people from different locations. Falling in love without meeting face to face is a very normal thing now. Starting a relationship online seems magical to many of us. Because of the easy communication, the relationship became simple, and it seems like most people are in love. But in my opinion, most relationships are not sincere online. Most people fall in love with judging based on their appearance on social media and as far as I know the world of social media is filled with fake people and those people are different in the real world. What's the meaning of the relationship that started with a lie? It means a profile filled with fake information.

Moreover, one person can continue multiple relationships through social media easily, which was hard in the past time. In social media, betraying partners is a very common thing. In fact, many people go for a relationship just for fun or for having some specific intentions. So in the case of online relationships, I think most people are in relationships because it's easy to be in a relationship in the current time. We can say it has become a trend now. So the feelings are not genuine. I think we can be in a relationship easily, and maybe that's the reason we forget how to value a relationship.

Till now I shared my thoughts about average relationships. But online is very good and helpful for those who have genuine feelings towards each other to maintain long-distance relationships, as technology makes communication easier for them. Again, meeting with a good person to fall in love is not impossible. But such kinds of people ensure their feelings by meeting face to face, as they don't want to be online friends or couples only. They want to be together in real life, so in that case, online media acts as a connection between them. As long as the feelings between both sides are genuine, social media is a very good thing. But still, I recommend not going on a relationship judging by the online activities and online profile. Before ensuring the feeling, the face-to-face meeting is necessary.
