 Introduction
 In the 21st century social media tools for example facebook, twitter, messenger, Instagram etc. has
become an inevitable part of our life.

 People of all ages use social media, including children, teenagers, adults, and even the elderly.

 Social media is affecting our interpersonal relationships both positively and negatively.

 Our interpersonal relationships with our family, peers, and society are deteriorating.

 Our society has been significantly impacted by social media.

 "Research has shown that excessive social media use can harm the quality of interpersonal
interactions," (Charoensukmongkol). Relationships are becoming more complicated as
social media technology advances.
 Literature Review

 Social media has both positive and negative effects on our

interpersonal relationships. Relationships between siblings,
partners, or parents and children are frequently strained or
nonexistent as a result of technology. Social media may make us
feel connected, but it takes away our ability to hear and
understand.
 Literature Review
 According to a study that looked at how the use of social media affects the user's
emotional well-being and offline interpersonal relationships. However, as this study
has demonstrated, social media is not without its drawbacks. Data provided
compelling evidence that social media use has more negative consequences than
benefits. The data suggest that unless we take appropriate steps to become more
aware of how our social media use affects us and what we can do to resolve those
issues, we will likely develop negative habits and plunge ourselves into a state of
deeper emotional distress by passively allowing our health and relationships to
deteriorate (Spencer,2018).
 Literature Review
 According to a journal named “The Influence of Social Media on Social
Relationships among the Middle Class Youths in the United States of America” in
general, the study's findings revealed that The majority of youths agree that social
media has a positive impact on their daily lives. Use of social media can lead to
misunderstanding and the destruction of relationships. This may necessitate taking a
break from social media for a short time in order to better see what needs social
media sites have met (Mary & Linden,2020).
 Literature Review

 In another study they looked at the use of social media and its effects on interpersonal

relationship satisfaction in a specific population. Social media users are not dissatisfied with

their interpersonal relationships, but rather believe that social media can be used to improve

relationship satisfaction through more frequent intereaction. The data gathered in this study can

help us gain a better understanding of how members of society prefer to communicate and their

intentions when using social media(Kathryn & Jessica & Meghan & Shawna & Valerie,2012).

 Findings of the Research

• As per our research, we find out a lot of information about the impact of social media
on human relationships. In our research, both males and females participate equally.

• The most common social media apps are Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and
Whatsapp. 60% of respondents use social media for 3-5 hours, which is very
alarming. 20% of respondents say they are addicted to social media, which has
discouraged them from doing other work.
 Findings of the Research

• Social media may have so many good impacts on our lives, but it has mostly a
negative impact on human relationships with our family. As we choose the 19–25
age group as our responders, we see that most of them are addicted to social media.
For this reason, young people lose their bond with their parents.

• But through our research, we find out that social media has a very bad impression in
terms of maintaining a good relationship with family members.
 Discussion and Conclusion
 This study looked at the effects that social media use has on users' emotional health and their
offline interpersonal connections. The data suggest that if appropriate steps are not taken to
increase awareness of how our use of social media affects us, we will likely develop unhealthy
habits.

 Social media does have its drawbacks, as this study has demonstrated. The study's conclusive conclusions,
which are supported by quantitative data, show that using social media has more drawbacks e than
advantages.

 The information gathered, however, was still useful in a variety of ways.One final observation for this
research study is that social media are still very new to the world, and as this issue develops, only more
research and time will be able to discern what is truly happening to mankind in the coming years.
