A lonely person never feels complete and happy. Everyone has a need for communication, although it is at a different level. National Internet Friends Day is dedicated to friendship on social networks. Sometimes communicating with people via the Internet is much easier than in real life.
History
Currently, there are a huge number of ways to find friends. On the Internet there are dating sites where people from all over the world are trying to find real friends and future romantic partners. Most people tend to devalue communication on social networks. In fact, it’s no worse than talking live.
Online relationships are just as important. You can share with your friends the most personal experiences and not worry about your safety. It is enough to get to know the interlocutor on the other side well. Such friendship is considered the most honest. Circumstances do not force people to communicate. They do their best to get closer. They are helped by common interests or views.
Fears appeared with the increase in the number of scammers on the Internet. For security reasons, it is better not to share personal data with everyone you meet. There may be deception everywhere, but some relationships with pen pals go on for years. One correspondence sometimes becomes not enough. People regularly call and try to get closer by being at a distance.
Fun facts
- In 1997, social networks began to gain popularity. People were looking for a way to share the latest news, show themselves to the world and find new acquaintances.
- Multiplayer games unite. Users who work in a team turn into a cohesive team. Sometimes they are more comfortable to be in the virtual world than in the real one, because in the first case they manage to be the way they always wanted.
- When starting a new relationship on the Internet, you should be more careful. It’s not about scammers. There is a great risk of becoming attached to a person whose meeting may never take place.
How to celebrate
It’s worth throwing an internet party. You will have to gather all your friends from social networks and set a time for a video call. Don’t forget the time zone difference. Time should be perfect for everyone. In another case, try to remember friends with whom you have not communicated for a long time. Today is the perfect day to remind yourself of yourself and ask about recent events.
