But it can also be healthier to develop natural confidence within yourself rather than having to seek someone else’s validation for it, as this can be temporary and if bound tothe wrong person, may even be disappointing.

In many ways, the issue isn’t that fake news exists; it’s that it’s becoming more and more difficult to determine what’s real and what’s not.
