When I get together with people, I have all these stories saved up to tell them. The only problem is, they already read all about it on my blog or Facebook! (Somehow, I forget people are reading that stuff.)
They’ve read all my stories, saw all the pictures, and are like…so, what else is new? Uh…nothing. That stuff you’re reading is my life lived out loud. You really don’t want to hear about the headaches, the dirty laundry piling up and that annoying person on the road who flipped me off, do you? Yes? Okay, I’ll blog about that then! Oh wait, then we’re back where we started.
Makes for less interesting conversations in person to be sure.

I used to share everything on social media. It came to the point when I started to edit what i shared so I had stories or things to talk about when I meet with my friends.

Wow, that’s interesting you had the same experience and that you decided to save things for conversations with friends! I have to think about how to do that.
