I am interested in how many people feel that computers and cell phones, improperly used, are destroying marriages and relationships. When hubby and I were married, we had our home phone with our phone book, and all the numbers of family and friends that we needed for our whole family right there in view of everyone in the household. Now, everyone is running around with their cell phones with all their private numbers in them, constantly texting and talking to anyone and everyone. At meals, in restaurants, mothers are texting or talking and not paying atttention to their children or husband and vice versa. My husband had some vacation days last week and we had something planned for my birthday, and we were enjoying the long weekend. Lo and behold, on Friday, a woman from his work place called him on her break to ask him if he wanted to work on Saturday as they were working overtime. Not on our home phone, but on his cell phone, and she is not a boss, and these were VACATION days that he had taken. People are just so rude and so gutsy any more. I am putting up my cell phone , and will only have it with me from now on when I go out of town for emergencies. I am sick to death of all this. Does anyone else feel like this?
