According to a survey conducted by China Youth Daily, nearly 60% of the respondents feel that there are many "ineffective social activities" in their circle of friends. Setting the message not to disturb and the number of days that the circle of friends can be seen is the main way for respondents to "reduce the burden" on their circle of friends. To establish high-quality social relationships, 68.3% of the respondents suggested setting a sense of boundaries for social interaction in leisure time, and dare to refuse certain social occasions. 53.6% of the respondents suggested distinguishing social accounts of work and life and dividing boundaries for different social interactions.

Man is a social animal. Efficient and deep social communication and the division of labor and cooperation arising from it are second nature of human beings. However, the history of technological progress has always been accompanied by the process of opposing technological alienation. People invented the circle of friends, and suddenly found that it has increasingly become a performance social show. Returning to common sense and looking back at the initial heart may be more important than measuring the effectiveness of social interaction.
Youth theory
Low-quality social interaction is far less than high-quality solitude.
In the information age, it is difficult to avoid the "invalid" part in social interaction, because there is no guarantee that everyone you meet will not come and go in the future, and there will be no place to ask for help in the future. Therefore, it is the best way to maintain the circle of friends with painstaking efforts. Low-cost courtesy, praise from friends and mass holiday blessings have become the best way.
The development of the Internet has brought convenience to social interaction, but the pervasive network has made social interaction lose its sense of boundary and brought invisible pressure. The circle of friends visible to everyone can no longer share their lives as they please; Most of the group chat messages that keep popping up have nothing to do with themselves, but they are afraid of missing important notices; I can’t get rid of the dinner and meaningless greetings, and I’m afraid of saying the wrong thing, which takes my brain and trouble. Modifying the visible range of friends circle, folding group chat, setting grouping and other functions came into being. These are silent resistance to ineffective social interaction and awakening of self-awareness. Instead of creating people to please others, they set aside boundaries for their own lives and pay attention to their own feelings.
Rejecting ineffective social interaction and focusing on your heart is the most important thing. Low-quality social interaction is far less than high-quality solitude. In fact, taking interests and hobbies as social orientation rather than benefits is not only relaxing and enjoyable, but also can actively learn and accept more things, so that social interaction can return to its own meaning. High-quality social interaction requires first determining one’s social goals and goals, choosing social scope, conducting social activities in a directional way, and focusing time and energy on important people and things in order to establish a deep social relationship with them. In addition, spending time in high-quality solitude is also a way to communicate with yourself. You are the one who knows your own advantages and disadvantages best. Examining and refining yourself is also an important way to improve yourself. (Liang Shuang Guangxi University for Nationalities Xiangsihu College, 2020 undergraduate)
