OVERVIEW

Problem

Since the pandemic, almost all kinds of relationships have been reshaped. The only way for people to contact others is through the Internet. Some people can quickly accept this new way of socializing, but others still feel uncomfortable and no confidence to manage their relationships in a virtual world. Even more, they usually don’t realize the importance of managing a long-distance relationship until the relationships become unhealthy whatever family affection, friendship, or love.
