'protection' Contained Stories
The varied relationships that a person has with others, such as family, friends, community members, and strangers, make up a person's social life. It may be assessed by the frequency and quality of their frequent social contacts, both in person and online. People take social life seriously. When they start a conversation, they try to talk to impress the others. At the beginning of a conversation beating someone in a conversation does not show that you are superior. Making someone feel sorry about it is not a proper behaviour. The protection of our social life depends on how we behave to other people. Depending on how we behave, external forces may also be a factor. A person may be in the role of protector and he/she tries to protect the person who is insulted. Accordingly, the person who is insulted feels the maltreatment more and more.
