Don't Talk About Love Through Your Phone Screen
Will you fall in love with someone while staring at the screen?
A beautiful mood for a day, starting with a morning greeting.
A sweet goodnight, with a slight smile on your lips, you fall asleep peacefully.
Then the sweetness repeats the next day.
It's getting cold, someone will remind you to wear more clothes;
When you have troubles, someone will quietly listen to you vent;
When you're unhappy, someone will use all means to make you happy.
Do you think this is love? Do you think you are the only one for them?
In reality, you are just one of the countless ambiguous objects they have.

A friend met a boy on social media, and at first they were shy, but eventually they opened up to each other, and the more they talked, the more they found common ground.
They could talk about anything: from poetry to movies, from movies to literature, from favorite singers to future dreams, sharing their little secrets and small worries on their growth journey.
She would always hold her phone, anxiously waiting for the boy’s reply.
The moment she received a reply, the whole world seemed to turn pink.
When dependence becomes a habit, when chatting becomes companionship, she happily thought she was in love.
But later, because the boy announced his relationship with another girl on his, she realized that all her self-deceived emotions and joy were so ironic and ridiculous.
I regard you as my only one with all my heart, and you regard me as a dispensable amusement.
Love through the screen, let's give up.
When the beauty fades, only the biting reality remains.
People who play happily quickly withdraw.
Only those who genuinely care remain in place, leaving only sadness.

We decided to be together through the screen.
But later, the breakup was also ended in a rush on two phones.
I once read a passage that felt very appropriate:
“Two loving people met after having crossed vast distances – encountering each other before a meeting, crossing mountains, traversing oceans, and experiencing vicissitudes of life.”
I love you, there are a thousand ways to express it, why did some people choose the most insecure one?
Sending a message, and the other person doesn’t reply for a long time, she can’t help but guess;
It's because of what happened last time, or because of the small incident last time, he's still angry.
I’ve thought about so many possibilities, what’s the use?
Through the screen, I can’t see the expressions of the other person, I can’t feel their joy and sorrow.
Everything is just a one-person show that I self-created.
I’ve also heard many sweet couples chatting online, but when they come to reality, they find that the promises are not fulfilled.
You knock, I answer, we say goodbye.
What we remember is just a fun game of hide-and-seek with our phones.
Through the screen, the love words you receive may have been said to countless other people.
What you call tenderness might just be his mass greetings.
When I open my phone, I think I have the whole world.

But when I put down my phone, I realize I’m still a lonely person.
A person who loves you won’t let you live in a small screen forever.
If I love you, I will go to you without hesitation.
Let’s go hand in hand to that cafe you’ve always wanted to visit;
On anniversaries, I will cook your favorite dishes for you;
On windy and rainy days, I happen to stand under your office building with an umbrella.
Love is like this:
Beautiful vows and promises are no match for the daily companionship.
Compared to the warmth through the screen, I want a big embrace when we meet.
