Today, many couples are involved in long distance relationships in which they use the computer to reach one another. These relationships are usually caused as a result of people moving to another area as a result of a job oppurtunity. Many people like the Harvey family have to learn to adapt to this situation. Specifically, Mr. Harvey needed to move to New Orleans to take a job as an assistant professor at New Orleans. However, the family stayed in their previous home in Chicago. Harvey says that “It is not a great time to buy a house in New Orleans, nor is it a good time to sell one in Chicago.” Miles harvey and his family use the program Skype to reach one another and speak via the computer.
In my opinion, computer relationships seem as if they could only last for brief amounts of time and that they would not be very effective for for many years. It is logical for people to use skype and similar programs with their friends to communicate, but to use it as the foundation for a relationship is ridiculous in my opinion.
