Technology’s Negative Impact on Romantic Relationships

With social networks and other social technologies, friends and family can interact regardless of location. While people remain sociable through constant communication, the essential part of the face-to-face interaction is affected. In a romantic relationship, open communication with colleagues is important for the trust and development of the relationship. Young people maintain daily relationships using social technologies such as the Internet and mobile phones.

The purpose of this research was to study the influence of technology use on the relationship between husband and wife. It is assumed that the use of technology without interaction with or interaction with a partner may adversely affect the satisfaction of the relationship. The results of this study found that the use of laptops in front of partners who did not participate / did not interact was associated with a negative perception of this relationship. There is no adverse effect on the use of computers, televisions, mobile phones. From a neuropsychological point of view, when partners use laptops without interaction, their dominance decreases. Decline of control is upregulated by the limbic system (brain's emotional area) that detects potential compromise or violates the need for personal safety and attachment and control.

However, using social media also encourages passive attacks such as conflict, embarrassment, partner surveillance. In addition to the direct impact of development, maintenance, and recognition of romantic relationships, the use of excessive social networks is associated with embarrassment and dissatisfaction in the relationship.
