Most first dates are now achieved through text, regular chat through the relationship is maintained through Facebook and breaking up is mostly done through a text.
You are far more likely to email a work colleague than turn around and talk to them and your kids will text you rather than talk to you face to face.
We have lost the art of conversation and it is mostly due to electronics in the form of phones and computers. Conversations now have to be a conscious effort. Sadly relationship issues are increasing and some psychologists put it down to the new technology.
Go for a walk with your family and pet at the park and leave your phone behind. I bet you find that almost unbearably stressful being without your phone. That’s how bad it has become. Without your phone, you will be forced to talk. Is that a bad thing?
Maria Thackwell The Mortgage Manager Who Understands Your Situation
After 26 years in banking and four years as one of NZ’s top performing mobile mortgage managers, Maria Thackwell started Maria Thackwell Mortgage Company in 2012 to help people build bright futures. Her goal in becoming a mortgage broker was to use her expertise in finance to help her clients get the very best lending deals and make mortgages fun.
Like many Cantabrians, Maria lost her home in the earthquakes. It made her realise that life is short and that the time had come to follow her true passion; giving people the best possible mortgage advice so they can build bright and positive futures. She also understands what it’s like to have her world turned upside down and wants to help families rebuild their lives.
Maria is here to simplify all your lending, whether it’s refinancing, getting a construction loan, a first home loan or investment finance.
One appointment with us is like meeting with lots of financial institutions. We listen carefully to your requirements then match you with the very best lender for your needs. And while we’re 100% Canterbury owned and proud of it, we can help you no matter where you live in New Zealand and overseas. It’s so easy to get started.
