The use of communication technologies is important for our current life but it's not always necessary. It depends on your situation.
I’m going to tell a true story, the story of my
current relationship. Right now, my girlfriend is doing a master in France. She
studied bioengineering at Universidad de Antioquia in Medellin – Colombia. She
traveled to Blois – France one year ago and she is studing there for two years.
Since that moment, our relationship changed a lot. Of
course, the way we communicate is totally different now. We use mainly the
internet and cellphone. For example, an international call is really cheap in
this city (Medellin). I mean, I can make a phone call to France from a public
phone and it costs $300/min.
On the other hand, we use the internet more often
because we both have internet in our cellphones. We make a lot of video-calls
and we chat using Skype, Gtalk, Whatsapp or Viber, among others.
Because of those things, I think technology is
important depending on the situation. In a long distance relationship is so
important but in a closer relationship you don’t need to use it a lot.
