ENThe article examines how the use of social networks affects various interpersonal relationships. The consideration of the topic is relevant, because nowadays we meet less people who do not use social networks at all. Social networks have become part of everyday life. They watch the news, learn about important events, and observe world events.

Introduction.Global Reporting Portal DataReportal 2023 Digital Space statistics show that 59.4% of the total world population is an active social media user. That is more than half of the population. Face-to-face connections are quickly lost on social media platforms as people prefer to communicate digitally rather than face-to-face. Managing content on the vastness of the Internet is much easier than communicating in person, so by nature a person chooses a path that is easier for him and does not cause much dissatisfaction. The invention of social networks led to the exchange of live communication and socialisation for digital relationships with the world, leading to a significant increase in the use of social networks and a rapid decline in communication with each other (Influence of Social Media on the Interpersonal Communication, 2022). According to official statistics, as many as 98.9 per cent of people aged 16 to 29 used the Internet every day in Lithuanian in 2022, and 93.3 per cent used the Internet several times a day. Less than once a week accounts for only 0.2 per cent of young people. The most common use of the Internet is to browse social networks (Digital Economy and Society in Lithuania, 2022).
