Why Real-Life Friends Are Important
there are levels of friendship, and social media friends offer the least depth. it's better to have a few close friends who will stick with you rather than hundreds of social media friends who could disappear.

A recent survey says people are happier and laugh 50% more when talking to a friend face-to-face. So, it’s safe to conclude that virtual friendships don’t count any more
It’s the same scenario with most of us. We have hundreds of — some even have 1,000-plus — friends on social networking sites, but only a handful of ‘real’ ones. Real friends whom we hang out with, share personal details and spend quality time with. And yet, we keep chatting with our virtual friends on social networking sites almost on a daily basis, instead of nurturing real friendships.
A recent survey concluded that virtual friends don’t count. People are happier and laugh 50% more when talking to a friend face-to-face. Also, people find that the most satisfying relationships are with a handful of close friends, with an ‘outer ring’ of 10 significant others.
Nicole Cyrus, 26, banker, has more than 800 friends on a social networking website. “I have way too many friends on my list, but since I don’t open up easily, I have few friends who really understand me. So, it is important for me to interact with those friends and I make it a point to do so. Even if it wouldn’t be aface-to-face interaction, I make sure I keep in touch,” says she.
For instance, Nicole videochats with her best friend who stays in Australia, at least once every week, if not more. She also keeps in touch with other close friends, via phone. “But yes, I guess face-to-face interaction is way more important than just virtual friendship and relationship,” she concludes.
