After food and shelter, our need to belong and feel positively connected to others is arguably the number one predictor of well-being, happiness, health, and even longevity. Trying to connect in this way, though, is actually counterproductive. Here are three ways virtual connection is ruining your real-life relationships.

"His colleague gently explained that his "active-listening face" looked a lot like his angry face." I feel like technology not only manipulated our language use but also how we present ourselves, because when we look at our phones we don't really need to worry about our facial expressions. Comparing to talking to an actual person, like when someone is talking about something happy and the other person has a blank face, the speaker might misunderstand that hes actually interested but not showing it through his expression.

In the 21st century, social media has completely transformed our face-to-face (verbal) communication experience. Not only does social media create too many distractions between couples, time is generally wasted, which could be better spent towards the relationship.

Instead of deriving pleasure from your experience and the people around you, you seek it from your phone. Your brain's pleasure centers also respond positively to novelty, which social media offers in a constant stream of new interactions, new posts, and new pictures every second.
