In the real world it is not uncommon to find love through social media, the internet, and especially through our cellphones. "I 'met' my fiancé on April 24, 2014, through friends and mainly online." For Sarah Fields, she met the love of her life online and communicating though texts or a social media platform allowed them to be better acquainted before actually meeting.  'Former flames are just a click away. Appropriate relationship boundaries can become blurry. For example, when does casual messaging cross the line into an emotional affair?'

Mark Bauerlein an author of a book on technology's part in the "dumbest generation" says, "Kids say I'm unpleasant and that I don't understand them, but what I want is a dialogue with them, and they're too busy e-mailing each other,". This statement is very relatable considering the fact that much of the older population has to sit by and watch as the world evolves and revolves around new technology. Grandmothers, even mothers will tell their children how different the world was when they were a kid. Instead of going out to play, kids in the modern age are playing video games with people they've never met, and will never meet. "Texting has replaced face-to-face conversation for many people, and some experts worry that teens, who are the heaviest texters, are losing social skills, including the ability to empathize with others." Susan Henneburg says this while stating her argument that cell phones have become a part of the human body. I agree with this though due to my own personal experiences as a teen in this modern age. Many teens have become so attached to their cell phones and feel tempted to check it even when taken away. Once people become so confortable communicating over text or a social media platform, their ability to communicate face to face is hindered.

In Fahrenheit 451 one of the centralized themes is how people have become brainwashed by new technology. "Will you turn the parlour off?" he asked.
"That's my family."(Bradbury 46). Bradbury uses Mildred's character to express this theme since she is so immersed in this modernized form of brainwash. Mildred feels that the actors in her show are more of her family than her husband is.
"Mildred watched the toast delivered to her plate. She had both ears plugged with electronic bees that were humming the hour away. She looked up suddenly, saw him and nodded. “You all right?” he asked. She was an expert at lip reading from ten years of apprenticeship at Seashell ear-thimbles. She nodded again." (Bradbury 16). Unlike Montag, Mildred needs constant noise to drown out her own thoughts. She keeps the seashells in to sleep and during the day. At night in bed is typically when people would think about their day or speak to their spouse but instead this new technology has driven Mildred away from her husband.
