When I update something on FB..I assume each and everyone on my list reads/sees it..irrespective of their acknowledgment. #NOoooo. I am lying. It just feels weird ....and totally weird...when someone acknowledges about it in person to me, rather than at the time they have read/seen it. (<----I must confess, I do the same).
Facbeook is just stupid. I have always known this...but the only reason I have let myself get addicted to it over the past one year is for the simple reason of
--------> Getting over him. And what better way than to do something he forbid me to do...right?!
But I guess I was wrong..Facebook is just stupid.He was right. o__O
It just makes people feel lonelier and depressed if anything else.
Face book was never my favorite medium of commuincation though it surely has been the most easiest way of communication.
Hey wait!!! What is the definition of Communication??
Communication is the exchange and flow of information and ideas from one person to another; it involves a sender transmitting an idea, information, or feeling to a receiver (U.S. Army, 1983)
And what exactly am I doing in Face book??
--> Sharing my thoughts? if so, with whom?? I can never figure out the privacy settings of facebook and really have no freaking idea of who and who more can see something I post. But one thing that I am sure of is this, that it is visible to more people than I would want to be....just like the many-many random updates of strangers (or friends of friends) I get, in my news feed.
-->Sending or receiving the right thoughts/feelings?? Misunderstandings between two individuals happen even when they are talking with one another directly, looking in the eyes...how can FB communication not be prone to high risk of misunderstandings?
-->Friends?? 10% of the people in my friends list are the people who I would really care to call my friends, whom I could call at any hour of the day/night. Why does the other 90% exist in the list...I have no clue and I am sure they don't either and even they would be asking the same question as to why I exist in their list at some point of time or the other.
-->Get stalked?? By a random stranger whom I add out of courtesy and who feels offended that I decided to deactivate my account and hence sends my sister a message saying..."She doesn't have to give a justification and blah blah blah"...as if I cheated on him??? What The HECK.....I am just a narcissist..talking about myself all the time on my FB and not for entertaining friends/family/strangers..but just for reasons of utter selfishness.
It's really funny that I am complaining about all this when I can just deactivate it and be happy & peaceful & most importantly do things I NEED TO AND LOVE TO.
Getting rid of FB addiction ain't easy...becuase I have tried it numerous times already and FAILED....but guess now is the right time for me to do something more productive...or atleast something that doesn't make me feel like being stalked by my very own people.
I am not going to get over FB in a day or a two...it's going to take time but some day soon, it shall not be a part of my everyday routine, anymore. I say, "I GOT THIS", As Robin in HIMYM would say and end this post here. But, if you are a FB addict like me or you once were..share your experiences..make me feel not so stupid and foolish to be going through this.
