Social Media Isn't All Bad

Social Media has effected intimacy in many different ways.  Today we can look up almost anybody at any time online.   So everyone can basically get a background check on you whenever they want.  But on the other end of the spectrum, people also use social media to meet new people.  There are apps on phones that find other people near you with the same app.  Then you swipe to decide if you want to talk or not.  If both parties select yes then it allows them to have a conversation.  That is one way were it doesn’t deter intimacy but provokes it. 

               Another app allows people to write and post statuses anonymously and it uses their location to show other people what they posted.  This however becomes a distraction when everybody in your class is posting about class and the professor hilariously.  Because then one tends to become distracted.  Social networks also broaden do to social media.  More people know more people in general now.  And as more people start to meet more people then they continue to grow. 

               All in all social media allows us to connect with our friends and family, gives us a laugh here and there and helps us to kill time when we are bored.  There are great social media sites to follow that are dedicated toward humor and they are a great way to relieve some stress which we all have.
