Not tonight dear, I've got a laptop

Are you more interested in your laptop than the lap ?


Couples are spending more time looking at their laptops in the bedroom than they do looking at each other.


More and more people are putting their relationships at risk by using laptops in bed, it was reported yesterday.


  'Technology is a major distraction and can lead others to think you’re avoiding them.’

 


'We need to make time for talking face to face. When you’re in bed it’s the perfect time to turn off the tech and tune into your relationship.'


 

 Another study, at Tel Aviv University, concluded that overuse of the internet should be regarded as a disorder on a par with gambling, sex addiction and kleptomania.

When sleeping together becomes a mere ritual, a time comes when the lap next to you will cease to excite you more than someone else's thoughts....

Vastu and Feng Shui says no electronic equipment which emit electromagnetic waves should be in the bedroom as that disturbs a good sleep ...now they must include breakup of/strained relationship associated risks with it....:)

I've got friends who meet up for coffee and spend most of the time on thier smart phone / blackberry. However, Laptop in bed should be a no-no!

with u Brit, this is absolutely correct, due to lot of social websites like Facebook, twitter and so on, couples are more happy spending with virtual friends rather than making relationship between them strong by spending more time together discussing face to face,
