Summary | Our relationships suffer because of smartphones. We live under the false impression that we are more productive when we are constantly connected with everyone via our smartphones when really the presence of a smartphone keeps us from actually listening to the person standing in front of us. We do hear them and acknowledge their speaking with minimal responses but we tend to get impatient and ask them to "get to the point". That person might however need someone to really listen to them and engage with their problem to find the point of the story themselves... Romantic relationships can also only profit from both partners being in the moment rather than multi-tasking with their smartphone. While we may think it is weird if someone turns off their phone for a date, it is really very respectful. The conversations that ensue in a smartphone-free environment run very deep and are critical for bonding.
