Face-to-face communication and enough time to get to know each other well are prerequisites for a real relationship. People all like to feel wanted, even if it’s a false sense, despite what other people may believe. The perception that one can be whoever one wants to be online has been shaped by the digital age. But I think that relationships people form virtually and the way people get to know each other online have changed, mostly negatively.

Most are becoming more inward-focused and have forgotten what it means to be a true friend to those around them, rather than being genuine friends. People are emotional creatures who occasionally feel sad and aren’t always happy, but the Internet only shares positive experiences, preventing people from knowing each other completely. Nowadays, people tend to form fast and transient friendships. In real life friendships, individuals support one another through each other’s highs and lows. This is not at all like a friendship on social media. Because the Internet cannot take the place of in-person interactions and shared experiences, getting to know someone requires spending time together.

It is only fitting that life be experienced fully, forming bonds with the physical presence of others. Rather than truly being friends with those in their immediate vicinity, they are utilizing social media to establish connections. I consider this to be a drawback of the digital age.

In conclusion, the digital age may have brought about benefits like reaching out to old friends and forming new ones, but it has also had unfavorable effects on our moral, social, and personal lives due to our growing reliance on technology and the ways we pretend to keep up our online friendships.
