Emotions v/s Emojis

15-20 years ago, it was really nothing less than a reality show adventure task to get a girl to fall in love with a man. He had to woo her with all his wits and stunts without getting her father to notice. He would have to loaf around her house 20 times on his bike to just get a glimpse of her. And hence, they would have a story to tell their grand children about how they met and how much of a romantic grand-pa was!

Gone are those days!

Now, two people who swipe right can just go on a date and decide if they want to pursue each other. Well, it has made people save time. But, people have forgotten the essence of true love and romance with all this technological intervention. It’s just easy to get into a relationship as well as get out of it. Because both happens over a text and people don’t have to confront each other. That hassle of confrontation, talking and arguing is what people resent or are just lazy to have a decent conversation.

Yes, we don’t have time for all this. But, we have all the time to stalk our neighbours and friends on social media for hours!

Once in a while get out of your little digital world. Experience emotions in reality and not emojis. Relationships should not be limited to texts or pictures or videos. Keep it real, talk to each other, send each other gifts not GIFs.
