I am a person who likes to live in the moment. For example if I am at a concert, I don’t record the whole thing, I have a good time and experience the moment as it is happening. Being on your phone while being with your significant other means you aren’t spending time with each other. By being on the phone you and your partner won’t have actual conversations, to get to know each other. When I am with my partner I am never on my phone, I want to give them my full attention, with a phone in my hand that isn’t possible. Smart phone don’t only affect your relationships with your partner but also with your friends and family. If I were to go to dinner with my friends or my family and I was on my phone that would start to think that my phone is more important then them.I personally believe that smart phones negatively affect relationships with everyone. Although phones are a good source of information they are a distraction from reality.
