The other day I was invited by friends to go to Chilli's. I haven't seen them in a while and it was nice to get out and do what adults do. We got to catch up on things and got to joke around and reminisce about things, It felt so good. Until later, while sitting there trying to have a conversation, they were both on their phone having a text fight with another person. So I'm sitting here trying to figure out what's going on and they are showing me their screenshots and I'm just like what the hell like I really don't get out all that much anyways but I really wanted to try to get out and fellowship with other people.Try to have some friends to go out and do things that young professionals do and I guess I don't know. Maybe I'm not used to it, maybe this whole text culture name has gotten to be a little bit too much so .I feel kind of out of place and really bored I had a good time yes but for a whole two and a half- 3 hours of seeing these texts go back and forth and I'm sitting here with my phone-on my side in my hand I'm trying to connect like as human beings we are supposed to do face to face it kind of made me feel out of the loop. The so called fight was petty and was very unnecessary.
Have we as a society forgotten etiquette and human interaction. Its very sad. Face to face contact seems to be coming less common. Its a scary feeling.
Another day in the life of me.
