#technology #lives
Due to the advancement of
technology
 the methods of interaction among people have changed dramatically. These changes have undeniable merits and disadvantages. In
this
 essay, I shall discuss the effects of
technology
 in our
relationship
 with one another. The
way
 that
technology
 affected the
relationship
 of people is that it brings us closer together even though we are geographically far from each other. Before we use snail mail to communicate to our love ones who are far from us, but nowadays we are using cell phones and the internet to reach other people.

 able to see each other through video call over the phone or internet. It can be seen that
technology
 has brought us closer together and
further
 strengthens our
relationship
. In
this
 perspective,
technology
 has a positive impact on the
way
 we interact.
On the other hand

technology
 to communicate with each other means that our relationships will be on line not face to face. Talking to each other and making business will not be done personally. We will be missing important details in building

technology
 have harmful effects on our
relationship
. To sum it up,
technology
 has improved our

 of interacting with people who are far from us by providing an easier

 to communicate remotely.
However
