I want you to know my feelings in detail, so I type them into a single message that may be long, but at least I have provided good communication of my wants and needs.
Texting:
I return your communication sometimes with a similarly long winded message and sometimes with an 'ok'.
Emoji's:
:(
Aww. hugs

Snapchat:

I'm not saying you can't make meaningful connections, but the quick chats aren't doing it for me.

Honestly, they don't do it for anyone. I think that's why people these days always feel so alone.

AMEN! These are great and can be fun but they're not supposed to replace actual human interaction and conversation! I think people have simply forgotten that.

There's no doubt that social media has actually had a negative impact on socialization in today's culture. It's counterintuitive as hell, but there's been quite a few studies done and not a little discussion conducted on the subject.
