Starr Struck Radio, Episode 44: When Technology Negatively Impacts Your Relationship...

4/26/2016

Surprise, surprise, we're talking about technology again! And relationships! Two of our favorite subjects...

This week we talk about how we've seen our devices (specifically our phones) negatively impacting our relationship as of late. We share some examples from our day-to-day life that demonstrate how technology can cause issues for a couple, we discuss how technology can both help and hurt relationships over the long-haul, and then close by sharing some ideas for ways that couples can get better at using their technology mindfully so that their relationship doesn’t suffer because of it.

As Ben proclaims at the end of the show, "good episode!" And while he obviously thinks so, I hope you agree ;) You can listen below OR by downloading and/or subscribing in iTunes or Stitcher (be sure you search "Starr Struck Radio").

I laughed so hard at the Olive Garden discussion. My husband and I are frequent Cape visitors and have had similar comical experiences at that Olive Garden. Most recently I got my wine AFTER I got my meal... REALLY? I think we are done going there too, but we actually don't mind other Olive Gardens. The one in Plymouth we've never had a problem at. We are not big chain people either, but we really like those breadsticks and the soup. My parents once mentioned they were going to an Olive Garden because we like it and we were like OH NO, don't go! We don't want to actually recommend that place to people, lol. Anyway, thanks for totally cracking me up on my way to work this morning!
