The Last Post is a song that has been around for hundreds of years, its sound one of the most distinctive in existence. Citizens and members of militaries worldwide are able to recognize its somewhat haunting, poignant notes, played by a single bugler. It is a tune that bonds people together, going past the country, city, and religious lines that divide us all.

Online relationships VS Real Life relationships

Online relationships aren't as important as real life 

In health, we discussed the statement " online relationships aren't as important as real-life relationships,  some people might think that online relationships are important but that's why I'll be talking about the Pros and Cons about this issue. I will also be covering the topic about real-life relationships.

Pros 

1)You're more likely to talk with each other and get to know each other more than before 

2)Online dating provided individuals with access to many more potential partners than they could often find in their daily lives.

3)Online dating offers a number of ways to get to know a potential date before meeting in person. Such computer-mediated communication allows for safe and convenient interaction

4)Many online dating sites offer various types of personality testing and matching. Such matching can help guide individuals toward dating partners who may be more compatible.

Cons

1)Matching is a difficult process and testing may not be accurate for everyone. In addition, people may present differently in person or change over time.

2)The choices of partners can become confusing and overwhelming. Without a clear plan

3)Communication through computers is lacking some of the information provided in face-to-face interaction. As a result, it is harder to evaluate a potential match online. Also, some of the cues and features that build attraction (like touching) cannot be accomplished through a computer. 

4)online daters can get stuck endlessly "shopping" for the perfect partner, rather than actually starting a satisfying relationship.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Real-life relationship

Pros

1) Having someone to go to social events with 

2) You always have someone to do stuff with

3) They listen to you 

4) Truly enjoyable moments 

Cons

1)Fights it bound to happen eventually

2)Their attitude 

3)When they don't listen to you

4)When they hurt you 

Conclusion

Overall, it is important to remember that online dating is best used as a resource to meet individuals for face-to-face dating. Keeping that goal in your mind will prevent you from getting stuck on the drawbacks and limitations of online dating. So, if you get confused, the best next step is always to move an interaction towards a date. If you get overwhelmed with all the access to too many choices, then you need to find a way to narrow them down and find better matches. If you don't know what to do with a potential match, send them a quick text. If you get frustrated with talking online, then suggest a meeting in person or suggest a face to face call. Follow that process and you will more easily find a satisfying connection online and face-to-face too.

" you really are a Wonder" whispered his mother to Auggie.
