Do you feel closer to your friends and family because of social media, or do you think it keeps you apart?

The amazing invention of the present time is technology. Due to technology, everything has changed, starting from our lifestyle. Along with this, our family bond system has also changed. Now the emotions towards each other do not work like before, technology has indeed brought us closer to each other but that relationship has become a lifeless relationship.
Today, due to social media, direct relationships with friends are very rare, so the unbreakable bond of friendship is no longer found.
And even though family members are together, everyone has become separated. Some are so busy with technology that the strong bond between parents, brothers, and sisters is no longer there. We survive with the relationship of the responsible group.
Even though we are all so close, the relationship seems to be far away. Such a relationship has been created where there is a great lack of life. Which is called a lifeless relationship.

How often do you use your phone or computer to talk to people compared to meeting them in person?

No matter how much I depend on technology, I believe that I prefer meeting my in-laws in person rather than using technology to maintain and build family relationships. I think that using technology reduces emotion and love in communication. Can a mother's affection and love be obtained using technology? I believe that is not possible. To get your mother's love, you have to go to your mother and enjoy the sweet smile of your mother's face from the front. This builds family bonding beautifully. However, if there is an emergency, I use technology temporarily.

Can technology help us make new friends, or does it mainly connect us with people we already know?

I must admit that technology helps me a lot in making new friends, which is not possible without technology. For example, I can talk about Steemit. Before joining Steemit, I had not met so many friends from my country and abroad. Steemit, which is based on technology, has shown me that way. After joining here, I have made many friends. I have learned about the cultures of many countries. This is a new world. This would not have been possible without the use of technology.

Have you ever felt lonely while using social media? Why do you think that happens?

It is good to use social media at first. But sitting on social media for a long time is a boring issue. No matter how many friends you have on social media, there is not so much life touch there, the warm touch that you find when you spend time with your family. The loving behavior of the family can forget a hundred sorrows. Their wonderful behavior gives you the strength to live anew.
This love, emotion, and good advice is quite difficult to get through social media. Social media is basically an entertainment platform where entertainment is given priority, but there is also a lot to learn here. This social media is always entertainment-based. That is why we often feel lonely while using social media.

How has technology changed the way we communicate with each other?

We use technology in many ways. This use of technology has brought many changes in the way we communicate with each other.
For example:-
We can exchange information with each other very quickly through messages or video calls on the Internet.
By using social media, we can learn about different cultures in our country and abroad. We can increase the scope of our knowledge.
Many of our people's employment has increased due to technology. Their family transparency has returned, and they are now all able to exchange information using technology.
Technology has enabled people from one end of the world to connect with people from the other end.
