One thing about social media I have noticed is that people show their true colours on there sometimes. When I had worked at a company for quite some time I started to send out friend requests a few years ago. I noticed that one third of all the friend requests that I sent out were rejected. What added insult to the situation was that they would add people that were on my friend list that were fairly new to the company.
I am inwardly a very stern person so If I notice that someone rejects my friend request then I reject them back in the future. I actually hate Facebook because you are both exposed and isolated at the same time. Facebook also sends out viral videos to me but that just winds me up because I don't like them. A person falling over isn't really funny to me.
I create many things and people that are like me are not getting it. They have had years to learn what I like but, they still don't get it. I like to read news articles and facts but Facebook sends me sarcastic pictures and memes, and videos of pets and stuff like that.
There is nothing like opening an acutal book and reading about stuff. Facebook is far from a book, it is more like tosh to me.
I am grateful that I was around before Facebook because I learned to enjoy actual books. I am also grateful that I have learned not to take it personally when people reject my friend requests.
