Well, you may be right that if we're so absorbed in the virtual life, we may forget about how to live in this "flesh-and-blood" kind of life. But I cannot say that this "flesh-and-blood" kind of life is more real than the virtual one, especially if we look at OBR, which is actually a "virtual way of interaction and living." The virtual life is as real as the physical one. Some of us depend on the virtual life for our income.hsimone wrote:Yes, I also agree.gali wrote:I agree with the poster above. They were aware of the reality, but they wanted to impress others with their "happy life". Sadly, some people become so absorbed in the virtual life, they forget to live.
Some people also tend to use social media a place to show just the best part of their lives, because who wants to see or read something sad? Unfortunately, like you said gali, people sometimes forget to live due to this or they tend to not attempt to solve problems because they are become engrossed in making their lives seem perfect.

Interesting. I'm curious to what were the conducted researches on this topic.EWinters wrote:This has been researched by social psychologists, and yes, people typically do post only happy moments.
