RE: Social media doesn’t break social connections, rather, exposes their fragility
True what you said. Although, don't you think social media distances people appart from one another? couples especially?
Compare the connection everyone had in the 1980's with our present. People were much more connected then than now. Connecting through social media progressively becomes less satisfying . You always remain sort of empty..
Let's say all your initial hook up was totally on social media. When you come face to face with that person, you literally don't know what to say or how to behave...
virtual reality and physical reality are quite different in terms of interaction.
If a couple is completely satisfied with one another social media can't distance them.
In 1980's life had been less demanding. It has been easy to appreciate others for who they are. And if not they are not happy but they didn't have options which is completely not the case right now.
Connecting through social media is not satisfying itself but it gives the opportunity when taking the connection to the next level. and when you don't know what to say you can give yourself the opportunity to connect with other people until you find yourself completely satisfied. in all cases the first connection before social media had been weak so you had chosen it.
true. great reply. thank you :)
