In modern life, technology has transformed the way that we make and keep relationships. For some, these changes have been positive but others believe that they have made us more separate than before. I think that both of these views are valid but that there are more positive consequences.
Due to technology, we are now able to communicate instantly with people all over the world. This communication is possible in many different ways for example, through phone calls, video calls, email messages and share photos. We can also meet new people on dating sites and chatrooms.
These changes are mostly positive for many people. They argue that they allow us to stay in touch with people all over the world and that our location is not as important for our relationships as in the past. The fact that we can also share information quickly and easily means that we can know a lot more about the people that we communicate with.
However, there are also some disadvantages. For example, some people spend much less time meeting people in real life than they did before. As a result, people are said that the relationships that we make are not as strong because we can create a false, online person rather than get to know someone on a more personal level. It is certainly true that young people today tend to spend their time glued to their screens rather than meeting people outside.
In conclusion, modern communication is largely different than it used to be. I would argue that these impacts are generally positive but that we still need to ensure that we spend time nurturing relationships with people that we know in person
