Kitek, We all use our computers for work. I deal with 50 to 100 emails daily. I also work from home on my computer. My position requires a tremendous amount of my time be spent on the computer.
I of course like so many have a life, and it does not include the use of electronics. I have always had a rule since the phones came around, there will be NO electronics at the dinner table. or while we are having family time.
I simply can not understand why, when your spending quality time for instance, like tonight with the four of them playing a board game, he was constantly fooling with computer and not really playing the game. Then when gets up in the morning and before he pee's he turns in his computer, and the last thing he does before he goes to bed and to sleep is turn off his computer.
The other three checked their phones from time to time but interacted, and played the game socially all while he fiddles with his photo's on his laptop.
I know work and careers are important, but one must also pay a great deal of attention to one you love..... above all else. .....You never get one second of one day of one year back to do it over, when that time is gone, it is gone forever and just a memory. You really never miss what you have lost until it's gone and they you have the regret of taking advantage of that person, and that is damned hard to live with.
I have never said that Dima is not a nice guy, because when he wants to be he is of course. He just seems to be very preoccupied and neglectful at times. to the love of his life. that he wishes to spend the rest of his life with.
