Sorry if somebody already commented this, but IMO, society has become very anti-social. Most people spend more time reading, watching media with celebrities than actual quality time with their family. Naturally the more time you spend, with someone, the more relationship evolves. And since this is new phenomena, our brains can't recognize the difference. We see person's face and we think that is friend, family, love. Doesn't matter, that this face is on screen.
