How Does Social Media Make Us Apart

In discussions of technology, one controversial issue has been whether social media brings people together or tears them apart. On one hand, social media argues that it has brought people together because it lets you talk to whoever you want whenever you want all around the world. On the other hand, social media brings us apart because it is not letting you talk to someone face to face, therefore they might be lying about who they are. Also, it makes common day relationships more stressful than they have to be. Others even maintain that social media is unnecessary . My own view is that social media is nothing but bad news.
Teens are using social media for non educational reasons. They are on Facebook posting inappropriate things, sending inappropriate
It is tearing people apart. It is ruining people’s relationships. It also increases our stress levels. It takes away our privacy. Lasty, it is also making us less safe. Overall, social media has a detrimental impact on society. I state this out of personal experience. Multiply people have messaged me and requested me on Facebook that I do not even know. It made me feel extremely uncomfortable. Also, I had a relationship for three months and Facebook ruined it because we did not trust one another with social media. It is horrible to say that maybe if neither of us had social media we would still be together. A, in his article, “The Impact Of Social Media On Relationships." states that over two hundred people declared that social media and technology destroyed their relationship. In A’s view, “social media causes more insecurities between couples. Social media and technology combined are slowly becoming the number one cause of problems and arguments in relationships.” Also, Brian Jung exclaims that “Social media sites can make it more difficult for us to distinguish between the meaningful relationships we foster in the real world, and the numerous causal relationships formed through social media.” This implies that people are creating meaningless relationships that do not last so both of the spouse ends up getting hurt. Over all, social media and
Although, there is quite a bit of contradiction over this topic. As for some people believe that social media is bringing us together by allowing us to interact with each other from all over the world, I personally believe that social media brings nothing but bad news. In fact, Josh Rose, writer of an article called “How Social Media Is Having a Positive Impact On Our Culture." argues that social media allows for people to interact with their families out of the area. Josh uses social media to interact with his 10 year old son when they are not together. Though I concede that having a way to interact with family that is far from us is a good thing, I still insist that this is taking away from our social lives. Nothing is better than a face to face conversation and social media is coming up with ways to take that away from us. Dave Parrack, another article writer, contributes that “writing an update for Twitter (a form of social media) takes all of 20 seconds, and with cross-posting over other social networks switched on, that update reaches everyone you want it to reach (and probably more besides) in an instant.” This states that it is really easy to get whatever you want out to whoever you want. That is exactly my point! Although some people might find this a useful aspect, I think it is horrible! People can post whatever they want, even things to hurt other people, and
