How many of you believe this computer technology is ruining many relationships?

Pornography, single's sites, facebook, etc.....These are becoming top reasons for separations and divorces today per surveys, not me. How many of you agree and if any of these have been a reason for arguments in your relationship.How many of you believe this computer technology is ruining many relationships?
This is one of the best questions I've ever seen here! I wish I could give it more than one star.





I personally haven't had problems with it, but I've noticed a lot of teens can't communicate unless it's with their thumbs (not exactly what you mentioned, but very close) I saw a question on here once where several 13 year old girls were at a slumber party and.....didn't know what to talk about. Huh!?!? At that age, they should be yapping their fools heads off. I bet if they were texting on their LGs there'd be no problem.





And the same with facebook, etc. It's a great tool for finding people, but in relationships that already have some issues, it becomes yet one more thing for the distrustful spouse to check.





We're turning into a society where each individual has to be ';available'; 24/7 and if they're not, they need to state why. It's ugly.





On the porn, though, I see that in a somewhat different category. People can get porn in lots of different ways and, while the internet makes it easier, if someone wants to escape their marriage with it they can just do it with pay-per-views.How many of you believe this computer technology is ruining many relationships?
I believe this site is one of the worst. It seems many people on this site are young with little of life experience, but they are the ones giving advice. I have read some very ridiculous answers, and the wrong answers can make someone believe something wrong about their spouse or their marriage, and believe me, that will cause trouble between two people. The marjory of the answers seem to be just divorce your spouse, and then we wonder why the divorce rate is so high here in the states. You are correct, the higher the technology, the higher the divorce rate.
Computers are only used to amplify patterns of human behaviour, they do not initiate it.


';relationships'; are made from an emotional connections between people.





If separations and divorces are increasing with social networking online, they are caused by problems in the actual relationshp. It can certainly be argued that it makes cheating easier, but that again depends on the original relationship.
I think we live in a world that is so advance, that a new gemeration is used to having answers at the their finger tips in a matter of moments.


We are a generation that doesnt have to work hard for what we have and sort of feels we are owed this.


that being said, not being that thaught the value of hard work with everything you do is often overlooked, marriage included.





I dont think that its just these things you bring but a combination of lower self standards, lower moral values in many homes, and technology.


People forget to communicate, or in fact dont even really have the right tools to even know how.
It's a 50 50 trade off. It has helped many people connect who wouldn't be able to otherwise. If your having trouble in your relationship it's not going to matter whether a computer is involved or not. Goes back to the american way of blaming your faults on somebody or something else.
I am not worried about anything like that. What really worries me, is my young sons and daughters getting on the internet when there is so much filth. 8b,11b,14g.


edit: I knew this guy who had a 18 y/o daughter that went into strip dancing and he lost his mind and went into a major depression and was hospitalize because of that. Can believe all these years you raise up your daughter, just to graduate high school and find her first job as a stripper lady and then later on getting into drugs.
No. A happily married man has sex and interest from other women thrown at him over %26amp; over and he turns them away.





Something *must* be terribly wrong in the marriage for Facebook to become his (or her) Hot Date Night.





The co-ed workplace is a far, far bigger ';problem'; than the internet.
I get mad over my partners blackberry...I swear that thing goes off 24/7.


However, I just turn it off when its our days off and I get 2 days beep free. People are addicted to technology I am so lucky that my partner listens and is willing to disconnect with the outside world.
Never misuse anything even computer can ruin a relationship , be careful.
Don't blame the technology. Blame the dummies who abuse it.
I don't. If people have the right mindset, they wouldn't let things like this interfere with their relationship to begin with.
i agree. but facebook is not inteded to be a dating website.. i think its just to meet new people or kepe in contact wit friends but who knows*
i believe it is. people need to learn not to put internet over their spouses.
i completely agree with you
