I think Facebook and many other forms of social media are annoying and a waste of my time. When I see people I haven’t seen in a while I’m surprised how they often don’t look much like their Facebook pictures. I feel frustrated when people vent to me about something and then post all over Facebook like their life is a perfect storybook fairy tale. It feels as though I have wasted my time even bothering to listen to them and now I don’t want to listen to people vent anymore. My relationships with people seem to be more distant and superficial than ever.

I do like and follow some of the private groups I’m in on Facebook but even some of those have been full of people just looking for attention lately. I have started coming here to PC more than Facebook because I am looking for more meaningful connections with people and I won’t find it on Facebook. I’m disappointed that I haven’t been finding it in real life lately either.
