I love photographing sunsets and nature in general; this is generally satisfactory only for me. However, with my phone, I can take a photo of a sunset and immediately post it to social media for feedback. When people see my photo they can like it and I get notifications. In moderation, such a device would be a fantastic outlet for my amateur photography skills; it's an instant process that requires little to no effort on my part. While this seems like a beneficial aspect, it actually only sets me up for disappointment in future endeavors. In the real world, there is no such thing as instant gratification, and relying on my phone as a source of false pride in my work will only disappoint me later. This effect also influences how I initiate and continue romantic relationships. Instead of asking a girl for her home number and awkwardly asking her parents if she's home and available, I can ask her for her cell phone number or Snapchat username and, once again, she can respond immediately. This instant gratification takes all the work out of a relationship and diminishes the quality of the relationship. It can create a relationship without real feelings and allows these relationships to become detached from the people involved. Both aspects of this effect have long-term harmful consequences that are directly related to the increase in cell phone numbers
