Blog #4 Texting

Texting has its negatives and positives in several ways. I think texting is bad because the relationships have changed over time. If we look back in time how it used to be 5 years ago and now, it has completely changed girls and guys lives in a good and bad way. Texting has also changed our verbal communication. We don’t even write to each other like in the old times and we don’t communicate like how when we would be in love, or when you would write to your friends. Now all you have to say you say it all through a simple text. Texting gets addicting because you forget that you can call people and you can get to communicate, and it can also ruin a relationship. Texting also has its positives in several ways. I think texting could be used for an emergency like, for example, when you can’t answer a phone call. Texting can also help you express yourself; like in other words feelings, say things you can’t say in person and say everything in a text. You can also say things that you would never be able to say in person. Although I text with my loved one, sometimes I wish I can get that special call from him just to hear his voice and get a smile on my face because texting is ruining the society in relationships because there’s no communication.
