I have Digital drama

The recent reality television show I watched was True Life: I have digital drama. It wasn’t like last episode last week, where it was touching and an emotional episode. This episode was just had insane behavior. There were two couples who are about my age, which 22. The thing these couples had in common was that both of them had problems with one of them constantly being on their computer or cell phone. One girl we met was Nicole; she was dating a boy who had a lot of facebook girlfriends. He also kept his cell phone locked at all times so she couldn’t read anything on his phone. I personally think that is a bit weird, because first of all if you are in a relationship you shouldn’t have all of these other “girlfriends” that you meet via internet. On the flip side, she had a problem with constantly being on her cell phone, whether it was for texting or just talking on her phone. Eventually they broke up, it is pretty pathetic that you can’t make a relationship work because you are obsessed with texting and facebook. The next girl we met was Jasmine. She had a boyfriend who was always on the computer or his blackberry making sure his clients were satisfied. He cared more about work and his clients than he did his own girlfriend (who found out she was pregnant). Sure we all like money and money makes things easier sometimes, but in this case it didn’t. He didn’t have any balance in life when it came to work and a social life. Thankfully they went to counseling and it worked, he learned how to prioritize things in his life, which made Jasmine happy.
