I dislike the way that so many couples have no trust in their relationships.
I realize how difficult it is in this day and age, although I feel like there’s no use in being with someone if you can’t turn around separate from expecting the worst.
That’s why my bestie and I try our best to give each other the benefit of the doubt and stay out of each other’s business. We don’t go through each other’s phones, we never question who the other person is going out with, and we don’t dig through one another’s social media accounts. That being said, there is one check that I have on my bestie, thanks to our smart temperature control. You see, my bestie has an interesting habit whenever he gets home. He loves to go over and check the temperature control immediately upon entering the house. For one thing, he wants to set the temperature control to the ideal temperature based on his current temperature needs and the air condition outside. Secondly, he is a bit paranoid and prefers to make sure the whole Heating and Air Conditioning system has been working respectfully during his absence… Both of these factors, coupled with his anxiety, mean he will typically adjust the indoor temperature control equipment within 2 minutes of getting to the house. How does this help me, you ask? Well, we have a smart temperature control installed at condo for the heating and cooling system, but unbeknownst to him, I have programmed the temperature control to send me push notifications every time the temperature settings are adjusted. Thanks to the smart temperature control, I typically know exactly when he’s getting condo and how distracted he is, even if I’m hundreds of miles away.
