I have realized recently, how much my online life took over my real life.
Everyday, I NEED to check my updates, my friend’s updates, status’, horoscopes, ads (yes, even ads!), mail etc.
Yes, indeed, nothing will beat face-to-face communication but not everyone can get that access especially if, geographically speaking, it is impossible to face each other.
And yet, I have to be thankful that these social networks actually exist. I can be the ultimate homebody and not everyone is accessible to be in constant communication with. Facebook has become a number one source of updates or ‘gossip’ to my friend’s lives. I love it, I cherish it, I adore it.
So I beseech some of my FB friends to please do make an effort to update.
My point is…
If we are close, then knowing what is happening to you every moment is part of my responsibility and pleasure to be your friend.
If we are only friends, it doesn’t mean I don’t care. In one way or another, I’m sure we met for a reason and we can support and avail something from each other.
If we are mere acquaintance, maybe we became friends in FB to discover something from each other, which will benefit both of us.
Bottom line, our lives are connected in some way and I would like to know more about you, even if we can’t be always physically together. Update me and I’ll update you.
Let’s be FRIENDS. :)
