FRIENDSHIP:
ResponderEliminarpast,present and future
1.Fifty years ago,interacting with friends was simpler.There were no group chats or social media.You couldn't message anyone;you could only meet them face-to-face or speak to them on the phone.In the past,most people had a small number of friends:
Perhaps only 15,on average.And of those,only five were really close friends.
2.In 2000, everything changed when social media sites appeared.Suddenly you could make friends without leaving your home.
Today, it's even easier:you can use apps like Huggle to find people whit similar interests.Other apps help you manage your friendships.For example,UpHabit tracks your interactions with friends and tells you when you ought to contact them again.These PRM (Personal Relationship Management) apps are getting "smarter"all the time.Maybe in the future,they will be able to tell you what you should say to your friends!
3.Thanks to social media and other
Technology,people today often have hundreds of "friends". However, these are online contacts.The scientist Robin Dunbar argues that humans have a natural limit:they can't have more than 150 friends at one time.His research shows that we can only have five really close friends,plus ten others who are good friends.Then there is a larger group (about 50)who spend time with us but are not close friends.
4.Some experts believe that we shouldn't rely on technology for friendships because it has a negative effect on our communication skills.
Online,we communicate with short messages and simple "likes";we hardly ever have deep discussions.Maybe one day,we won't be able to have them at all.Also, communication is not just words :we use body language anda facial expressions to communicate our emotions.But you can only learn this skill when you speak face-to-face.
