    Social networks are negatively impacting sincere relationships in several ways: 1. Declaring a relationship status on social media is becoming like an engagement ring, even though the person has access to your account, and a social media relationship is different than an actual one. 2. The distraction of social media means people are spending less time with loved ones even when together. 3. People are stalking each other's social media instead of having conversations, learning details of someone's life without interacting with them. 4. People are becoming addicted to the attention received from likes on posts and notifications, which activates the brain's reward system.

    Social networks are killing sincere relationships

    Absolutely right.Today, mobile phones have become the third hand of every
    individual. Though the major aim of technological advancements is to make life
    easier and more comfortable, people have gone a step too far and the delicate balance
    between comfort and luxury has been breached.
    To be honest.. I never think "social media relationship" is important until several
    people made me think twice about it. Here is what I have discussed so far. Feel free to
    add if you have any.
    1.Declaring a "relationship status" in social media is almost like "engagement ring"
    nowadays, even though that person has access to your account. It is not enough.
    Social media relationship is different from the actual relationship.

    2.It Changes Things:The distraction of social media is meaning that we’re


    spending less time with our loved ones even when we’re in the same room
    as them.

    3.We're stalking each other.Why bother having a conversation with someone


    when you've already crept their Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn,
    Snapchat story, and blog?

    4.We're becoming addicted to attention .You're lying to yourself if you don't


    get pumped when you reach a new all time high on likes on your latest Instagram
    post.All the notifications, comments, likes, and follows are making our brains
    addicted to attention. 

     And now, my next question - should we blame the technology or ourselves


    for this condition? Feel free to share with me.thankyou
