We snap hundreds of cute selfies, we gab away on speakerphone, regardless of who might be within earshot, and we text until our fingers practically evolve into vestigial organs from sheer overuse. It’s freedom, baby, and as proud cell phone owners, we make the most of it.
But what about those intimate moments that warrant genuine, thoughtful, one-on-one communication (and, yes, I’m referring to dating, my friends). While you are chatting with your bestie on the phone, your date is solitarily slurping spaghetti noodles, and you are essentially letting your date know of his/her place in your life.
