Do you think Intimancy and commitment between couples is becoming increasingly confused or difficult?

Is this in any part due to the way technology is becoming more imbedded in our everyday lives. We desire it, depend on it and even relate to it on a (psuedo) intimate level. When bio and nanotechnology become more of a reality will this get worse?Do you think Intimancy and commitment between couples is becoming increasingly confused or difficult?
It is, but it's not technology's fault. The same thing has happened in countless societies. Societies tend to go through cycles of more complicated openly, then driving those with more complicated relationships into hiding when unsafe things become prevelant, then back again once things start to get safer. I think there has to be a happy medium somewhre, I'm just not sure what it would be.Do you think Intimancy and commitment between couples is becoming increasingly confused or difficult?
people think divorce is always an option, so no one tries very hard anymore. they split at the first sign of trouble istead of working it out.
for me it is lately being single again after 22 years it seems slightly more complicated %26amp; a total free for all.
No, I just think people are more open about it now, and divorce is easy to get. That's all.
I think the media is feeding crap into every body's heads and teaching us to value meaningless, shallow traits. It can only get worse unless there is a profound change in the popular culture.
Yes I think it is getting harder.
I think people have stopped seeing marriage as something sacred and started seeing it as a stepping stone in life. It's no longer a lifelong commitment you make to that one special person you find in life, but something that fits in somewhere between college and children..
