Third Blog: Social Interaction

I do feel that people have more social interaction. I think the problem with it is that it is not real social interaction. By this I mean I can log onto Facebook and make any profile that I want to with any other person's picture that I want. When I do this it is a Facebook page and there is someone behind it and if you talked to me you would be talking to someone but they more than likely aren't real. I say this because it is so easy to lie online. Now, I do have to say that it is amazing being married to a soldier and when he is deployed I can log on to see him and he doesn't miss out on all those little moments that they used to. I feel that this is a positive type of social interaction. There is a difference in my mind of positive and negative social interaction and I feel that online interaction can be both. I don't think that anything can truly replace human contact but it is easier for some people to talk to someone online then in person. I think it is really a matter of opinion. In my opinion it depends on the situation and the context.
