I have, since I joined Facebook, utilized it to share my thoughts but that has become less and less satisfying. I think the reasons are two fold. Most of my ‘friends’ on Facebook are fine people but they represent the types of relationships which normally happen for a while such as school, work and so forth. On Facebook they become unnaturally extended into long term relationships. I have changed over time. I started out very religious and politically far right I was in this phase when I met most of my ‘friends’ on FB. Over the years I have ditched religion as dead weight and now tend to lean left without falling over. I have noticed that most people do not change so radically over time. Anyway I don’t agree with 90% of what my Facebook friends post in fact, dirty little secret, I used a Facebook filtering function to hide most of them a long time ago. I have a hard time unfriending people because it makes me feel like a bad person and also now and then something comes up which really is interesting to some or all of us.
I think most of them have hidden me also. Its fine.
