When used properly, social media can strengthen old relationships and cultivate new connections, but if relied on too heavily, our virtual friendships can consume us. this could leave many without the necessary social skills to survive in the real world. many people are in danger of becoming so accustomed to impersonal interaction online that they could soon lose sight of the importance of face-to-face communication. many of us sit in classrooms, coffee shops, or offices, ignoring the world around us to focus on the virtual world. as a result, many people have thousands of acquaintances but very few true friends.

b)
provides strangers with personal information.

c)
makes everyday life more hectic.

d)
harm professional reputations.
