How Does Social Media Influence Relationships?

I believe social media has good and bad things about it. for example, one of the good things is it helps people who are far away from each other stay in contact. My parents and I are 10 hours away and I sometimes feel very lonely when so having skype really helps me. I usually talk to them once a day and we recently got into using skype which is even better because now I can see them, my pets and even my home. I know it might seem weird that I get happy about seeing my home but it really does put me in a good mood to see the place I grew up in.my parents and I also text, so when I'm busy and cant skype or talk on the phone we can text, theres always a way to stay connected. Another good thing is you can stay in contact through social media. For example, my parents have a lot of friends in mexico and because of facebook now they can message them and catch up on all those years they missed out. I have also ntied how the immigration community gains good things through social media. We receive a lot of good information like on our rights and where to find local resources. We also get a lot of support which I appreciate. After the whole issue with DACA its nice to see so many people stand up fpr DACA and state their support towards the immigrant community. It is honestly so heartwarming and it restores my faith which I really need right now.
Now to talk about the bad things, one of the bad things about social media that affects relationships is it creates trust issues. For some relationships "liking" the opposite sex picture can create a problem which arrises from trust issues. Then you have single people messaging one of the partners which can also create problems.
Social media really does help with building your strength in the field youre pursuing. For this I think its best to use LinkedIn. On linkedIn you can find a lot of professional people who are working in your same career choice and maybe you don't need those connections right now but it will come in handy later on. For the scholarship I won, I had to create a linkenIn account and through that I started to get a lot of recommendations from people who work in organizations from back home I used to be interested in. the reason I say "used" to be it was because those were the organizations I wanted to be in while I was in high school but I couldn't. Now that I am about to graduate maybe one day one of those connection will come in handy.
