 social
media
 a lot during the
last
 few decades. And there is a big probability that it could have a bad impact on the ability to form relationships with social
media
 users. It is agreed that
people
 can get a negative influence from social
media
. Facebook, Instagram and so on have influenced not anyone in a good way on bloggers,
due to
 bullying. As I mentioned before bullying makes up an essential part of social
media
, and for
this
 ,reason the majority of
people
 prefer to lie about their lifestyle, habits, and generally about their life. ,
Also
 I would like to mention that, there have been lots of
people
 on the social
media
 platform who imitated that they have various kinds of diseases for the subscribes and money.
Although
 the minority of
people
 prefer to show their true face of themselves, I mean they are not lying about their life (but usually they receive a big amount of bullying, for showing that they are not perfect). For
this
 ,reason the majority of
people
 have problems with the acceptance of their lifestyle or body (they think that that they are not good enough, because they compare themselves with those bloggers).
Also
, young
people
 prefer spending all their leisure time on social
media
, rather than with real-life
people
 (with their family, relatives or friends). And
this
 leads to problems with forming relationships with other
people
. Because they have become more introverted. Those
people
 are used to social
media
, talking with
people
 through those platforms, but not in real life. That means they will probably have difficulties communicating with other
people
 and making friends. In conclusion, I concur
to think

 leads to communication problems, not accepting themselves
