Some people believe that society is becoming less friendly these days. Why do you think this might be? Suggest some ways in which this can be reversed.

Nowadays, the majority of people prefer to live alone and reserved in their lives which made some people think that society has become less friendly now.

This

essay will discuss why

this

is happening and suggest some solutions to reverse

this

undesirable trend. The

first

and foremost reason behind

this

unfriendly behaviour is that these days, people have no time for socializing.

This

is because they spend maximum daytime hours in their jobs due to which after coming home, they opt to take rest rather than interacting with others. To illustrate, a study conducted by the US based NGO showed that an average person spends one-

third

of his lifetime at work which reduces the time for other activities.

Besides

this

, the increased cases of robbery results in a feeling of distrust in individuals and,

therefore

, people are becoming unsympathetic even towards their neighbours.

However

, today's detached society is a reality;

this

trend could be undone in several ways.

First

of all, one should spare a little time from their busy schedules for the people living around them and spend it with them.

For example

, they could organise parties and family functions and invite their friends and neighbours and make good relations with them.

Moreover

, business houses can organize picnics and get-together so that the work colleagues come close to each other.

Secondly

, people should get acquainted with each other by having friendly conversations which could help in building their trust.

This

might

also

help them knowing others better and

thus

making stronger connections with those they find trustworthy. In conclusion,

although

today's competitive world and trust issues are responsible for the unfriendliness of the society,

this

trend could be reversed if we would keep some moments for socializing and begin trusting each other.
