We know that Ashton Kutcher is a passionate Tweeter and a Tweeter who is passionate about Tweeting his Demi. But, he does see the digital age as one that is “not so Gr8 for Romance.
In fact, in his article for Harper’s Bazaar, one of his suggestions also happened to be one of my suggestions in Love Daily: 13 Romantic Tips – a hand written letter, which I love to send and love to receive.
This is what Your Tango says: Aaaah, Ashton – aka @aplusk, as he’s known in the Twittersphere. Despite his own highly publicized love affair with Twitter . . . . he’s not such a fan of social networking when it comes to wooing a woman. In writing for Harper Bazaar he wonders if the digital age has taken away some of the excitement of romance. Ashton Kutcher: Texting Not So ‘GR8‘ For Romance | YourTango
Here is what he says in Harper’s Bazaar:
“With all this texting, e-mailing, and social networking, I started wondering, are we all becoming so in touch with one another that we are in danger of losing touch? . . .
“When someone needs us, he or she needs all of us. There’s no text that can replace a loving touch when someone we love is hurting.
[But he adds:] “We haven’t lost romance in the digital age, but we may be neglecting it. In doing so, antiquated art forms are taking on new importance. The power of a handwritten letter is greater than ever. It’s personal and deliberate and means more than an e-mail or text ever will. It has a unique scent.” Harper’s Bazaar
I won’t spoil the rest of what he says by telling you how romantic he sounds. Read for yourself. As one of his 6 million Twitter followers – I think I’ve fallen in love with him.
