When couples over-optimize their relationship with technology

My partner and I both work in tech and we're excellent at optimizing everything in our lives but we've lost the ability to just be inefficient together and it's making our relationship feel like a productivity system. We track our habits, schedule our intimacy, and analyze our communication patterns but something essential about spontaneity and mystery is disappearing.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people have applied their professional skills to their personal connection so thoroughly that they've eliminated the beautiful inefficiency that love requires.
