Technology

I know we have a paper on technology. But I couldn't help but blogging about it. How it is so prevalent in our every day's lives! How it is a great tool, and have any types of devices to makes our lives a little bit easy. We can communicate with any one across the globe, shopping, banking or just surfing on the web for any kind of reasons.
As revolutionary it can be, it brought us any types of inconvenient. Particularly how humans handle relationships. I regularly watch that show called "cat fish" on M TV, and I'm so amazed to see people being so naive. Every body could be who they want behind that screen. Most of the time they are never who they said they were. People on that show had relationships for years and were really committed! Even sending money to their supposed partner. The more technology evolves the more the other person takes some steps back when they realize they can't Skype with their victims. It's only at this time that they realize that something is odd!
I don't know if I can be that much involved with any one over the internet!! I need more than  a virtual relationship to call some one my boyfriend. How could I feel closed to someone without ever touching them? Smelling them? Without any physical interaction? Nor even seeing them? Regardless the awareness on the matter, no matter how often we see stuffs on TV, some people are still so vulnerable to find that one person who will love them unconditionally that they are disconnected from reality and the world that surrounds them.
It's really sad and unfortunate to know that there are still people who take advantage of others thought the internet. We have to aware our kids on that matter because they are still really innocent and naive. With social media, they meet any kinds of people every day and they have no way to know the real intentions of  the other person.
