BE CONNECTED:
o Friendships: Strong friendships are formed by finding common interests. Shared interests like sports, school, associations, holidays, or religion connect us.
o Social Media: On social media, discovering commonalities facilitates a sense of connection
o Beyond commonalities: True friendship goes beyond social networks. What do we share in person that can't be found online?
What can I tell my friend in person that social media cannot?
o Outside: On social media, I share superficial info like photos and emotions. I receive a lot of data in return, but it's often impersonal."
o Inside: "I can share intimate information without knowing if it'll be received responsibly and receive intimate information without feeling obliged to respond kindly."
