What leads to ultimate

happinessReal Vs. Virtual Relationship ?

By: Shubham Kabadwal

Real RelationshipO A real relationship has fights, trust,

faith, tears, pain, arguments, patience, secrets, jealousy and love.

O People in real relationship are true and always present for each other at tough times.

O A real relationship has face to face talks.

O People in real relationship share real emotions and feelings.

Virtual RelationshipO It’s a relationship on internet where

one can hide his identity and form any avatar one wants to.

O People in virtual relationship don’t speak to each other in real life.

O They are connected through technology

O There is no face to face interactionO There are no real emotions

Real Vs. Virtual friendsO According to Times of India, a recent

survey says people are happier and laugh 50% more when talking to a friend face-to-face and Virtual friends don’t count.

O We have 1000 plus friends on social media but only a handful of real ones.

O Virtual friends are no substitute for real ones. Emotional touch cannot be easily replaced by internet chats, comments and posts.

We must disconnect in order to connect

Texting makes you closer to the person who is far away from

you but makes you far from the people sitting next to you

Face to Face interactions are more satisfying

O People talking face to face in real relationship are happier and understand each other more as individual can read gestures, facial expressions and words.

O Virtual relationship hides expression, feelings, emotion and makes it hard for people to understand each other. It can even hide one’s identity.

We can connect on social media but let’s not forget that our real friends know us in the deepest, most intimate and real way, we feel understood, known and visible.

Technology has made relationships virtual

Virtual Relationship disadvantage

O Loneliness is increasing because face to face interactions are occurring less often.

O Social skills are turning weakO Online interaction is addictiveO Virtual relationship gives stressO People are loosing close onesO People can cheat one another with fake

identityO People are forgetting real relationship.

Real relationship advantage

O People share real friendship, real emotions and feelings

O People are always there to help each other

O People understand each other betterO Real relationship makes you happierO It doesn’t makes you feel alone and

sadO It makes you more confident and

increase your social skills
