We all know how smartphones have revolutionised our lives.All my friends are connected to me via various social networking sites like Facebook,Google plus, Twitter.We have access to instant messaging services like WhatsApp ,Hike,Telegram and many more .Most popular of them is undoubtedly WhatsApp .Few months back WhatsApp introduced an option of "Blue Tick" in WhatsApp which meant that the person has seen the message after it has been delivered to that person.It was a centre of controversy and lead to the fall of many relationships .The reason behind it was that if the sender did not get a reply even after there is a "blue tick" which meant that the message was "seen" the sender would interpret it as a "sign of betrayal" against him or her.Strange! Even before the advent of smartphones technology there was an emotion called "Love" which only required "trust" between two people.Nowadays it has become "love tech" /"tech love".Last evening I had a bit of situation closed to being a "conflict" (No we did not have a direct conflict) .The central point of this situation was that I couldn't recognize that it was her friend on WhatsApp chat and I had presumed that I was chatting to the owner of the smartphone.Strange! While I told the smartphone owner if she is serious about me,then she should decide who should have her phone in her hand.I mistrusted her just because of a stupid smartphone. Strange! After she started sobbing ,I realized I have hurt her.The guilt is still there in my heart even though I have said Sorry multitude number of times and she has forgiven me .I don't know whether I will be able to forgive myself ever simply because I had mistrusted "my dearest one" just because of a stupid smartphone technology.
