social networking mirrors real life

Using the social networking sites can be a double-edged. You could either get to know a cool person or you will know one who is on the nightmarish sides. So this does not mean that you should steer clear of it. It is just like real life. You never know who you meet the next day or in a new place. In social networking, the other person could put a a pic which could be anything but the real face. You could even get to chat on messenger or email, which could be a fake since all these accounts are easily avaliable to anyone who needs a new account. Now, even mobile numbers could be easily obtain and in the next few week the number will be unusable. So it means, never to take the person seriously because the only way to know is to meet up the person. Rather if you encounter persons who drags about sending you the real pic or plays out on a meeting, you know you have been the fool. Just dump the character and move on. Experience points gained and intellgence dropped. Now you are wiser.
