RE: YOU NEED TO GET OFF FACEBOOK - Who's the enemy, here?
A good message, but then I don't want to let my 872 friends down and simply disappear. No really... I don't have nearly that many. The only friends I have on fb are those that I have actually met in person... for real, except for one, and I do like him so he stays. I have deleted many fb "friends" over the years because I agree with your message. The remaining friends I have are the real people in my life. They are my family and true friends. No wanabees. Facebook is how I stay connected living half-way around the world. My relationship with fb is love/hate, but until I find a better way to communicate and stay informed, it will have to do. Steemit is wonderful, but not fb... yet.
"The remaining friends I have are the real people in my life." -like we've never heard this one before! ;) All I hear if is fears and addictions in disguise again, cant you feel it in there. Afraid to "let them down". :) Bless. You never know till you try. What will happen if you try one month deactivated? Do you know?
Oh, no.... you've never tried. :P
It was a tongue-in-cheek comment. Ha. Real people are those that I know personally and choose to stay in contact with them... as opposed to people I have never met and, for all practical purposes, may not even exist! Facebook is MY personal phonebook so to speak and is how I keep up with my friends and family. No fears, no addictions. As far as experiencing any type of deactivation, I care not to. I can choose non-participation at any time of my choosing. To deactivate would be to become just another lonely mountain man in solitude.
You've never met me. I may not exist. Maybe you're addicted to reply-ing....................
