A lot of people became upset when a spouse interrupted them while they happened to be using this device.
Some positivity was also present in the study, thank God for that!
Spouses claim they would much rather prefer to spend time with their partners than stay glued to the screens of their phones. It just ended up making them feel so calm after it all.
And then there were around 90% of people who claim they would much rather put time into things that were super meaningful like chats instead of a phone’s screen.
This is a clear demonstration of how so many people are clearly aware of how their relationships are getting affected and perhaps even replaced thanks to this modern-day invention of the tech world.
