I will meet a knew person and we have a good conversation and things are really comfortable and go really well. Then they look me up on social media and it's like it opens them up to a bunch more about me that I didn't yet.
I will admit.. I posted some pretty ignorant things back in the day, but even just day to day. The things I "liked" and the memes I share..
It seems like this awkward thing can happen where they know all of your family, who you hang out with, random bits of how you feel and what you think. It gives them SUCH insight as to who you are as a person. They learned everything there is to know by sniffing around facebook for 5 minutes.
With all the selfies we take, a person could recognize the unique features of your face without ever actually looking at you (in person) and to me that is so weird!
What makes it awkward is they didn't grow and have that experience with me.. they looked it up on a website.
Anyone else get what I'm saying? I've been trying to be less active on facebook for this purpose. I'll post pictures of a special event or good memory, but keep my thoughts off it. Keep my opinions to the people in person. Keep my selfies to a low (I am a selfie queen in hiding).
NEW PERSON***
(I will often make spelling and grammar mistakes. This is consistent. I do have a bachelors degree! So much good that did me ;D )
