C Correct answer
Explanation

This is the correct option. S1 introduces the topic of the passage (definition of a relationship). S1 connects with S (‘for a relationship’ which tells us more about relationships). This is followed by R (the pronoun ‘they’ refers to relationships in S). This connects with Q (‘wrong in relationships’ in R connects to ‘advice on all kinds of problems that you may face’ in Q). This is followed by P (‘it is easier to manage contacts through internet’ connects directly to S6 ‘social networking sites’).
