Were people in the past friendlier than they are today?~

Were people in the past friendlier than they are today? When you think about it, you realize that this prompt is indeed true; most people from the past usually change, and sometimes these changes aren't that great. Most of their innocence has been stripped away due to the fact that they befriend people they shouldn't and experience things they shouldn't at their age.  Some other times, these sudden changes are caused by the use of the internet, where they usually subject themselves to social networking where they decrease the time spent physically talking to someone.
I believe that this prompt is indeed true; most of the people I had once known grew less friendly toward me. Usually the people that I lost touch with turned out to be “Jerks;” they have less respect towards someone they once knew, because they don’t feel obligated to be friendly anymore. The people that are still in touch with me are much friendlier than the people I once knew; maybe because these people took time to know who I was. People usually have a friendlier attitude towards someone they really know; this is because there is nothing to hide and each gained complete trust towards each other.
The people in the past were indeed friendlier than they are today because they weren’t “stripped of their innocence;” usually this is caused by bad decisions and the internet. I don’t mean that the internet is bad, I am totally in love with the internet but this is one of the causes. By bad decisions I mean that the people usually encounter people that aren’t all that great to be with; usually people that are involved with matters that no one should be doing. For example they befriend people that love to inflict pain to other people, which indeed does change the friendly attitude the people in the past had. Another bad decision that the people in the past might encounter is betrayal by a friend or loved one; once this had happened, their whole personality changes. The friendly attitude changes into a more secured mean attitude, so they won’t be subjected to another betrayal.
The internet is indeed another reason why people have become much more “crabby” towards people today. The internet or social networks isolate individual people, keeping them from physically communicating with other people. People usually have a change in attitude as they go through long periods of times without physical communication; they grow a sort of “awkwardness” toward other people. Usually this ends up with them not talking to their friends like they did before and become distant, which is not a great feeling at all. They soon realize that they actually do not like the people they befriend and shun that person, usually acting it out by acting immature and mean.

People in the past were sooooooo much nicer than they are today; I really miss those times that they actually had the courtesy to be nice. I myself have witness people I once new change into some “Jerk” that thinks they know everything; it’s not really something that I enjoy at all. I realized that the only way I can try and make them stay nice forever is to keep in contact with them so that they know me really well; not too well though because they might late hate me and blackmail me. The number one thing though is that you should never ever ever never ever do is betray someone’s trust because this will either get you dead, hurt or missing. So…I agree 99.9% that people in the past were much friendlier than today.
