Posted by WhiteChocolateThat sucks for you but how cool that people admire you so much. 🙂
Because I follow the other site LOL.
Yeah there are guys that try to make themselves look good on social media to get in the good graces of some of the bloggers and fishing guides and shops because they think they'll get free shit.
One of the shops here has me teach classes every now and then and pays me in store credit.
These other guys want to get on that train too.

I feel I need a break from it.
lol, because you don't possess the willpower to not go to the site ... if you cannot control yourself, then fb isn't even your fucking problem
however, at least you realize you're fucked up and need to fix it
I've never seen the point in it. I have pictures on the wall or a car, if I need to see my people.
If I have a joke, or a cute sentiment to say to one of my people ... then I want it to be in person.
I deactivate my FB account and have a few months break now and then too. FB is like a toxic addiction to me. I compulsively check it and find myself getting irritated by people's posts e.g share this if you love your kids. "I bet no one will bother sharing this because they don't care about cancer patients". Photos of animal abuse. Racist posts. Food photos
At the same time, I can't stay away too late my in case I miss out on social events !

And to think that there are people who are forced to use it against their wills in their jobs and school, because their coworkers, classmates get their work uploaded there.
I only use it to keep in contact with my children and grandchild. Mainly bcuz, if I call them, no one knows how to pick up the phone... I think it's a generation thing. Lol
I deactivated mine in 2012 lol I reactivated it a few times after that to get in contact with someone.. but I haven't activated that thing in years and don't plan on it. Sometimes I see the crap on the time line from my friends phone when she's on it SMH. Drama drama drama..
Posted by WateryGemWhat you're saying is very true. It resonates with what I have seen and felt with social media including Facebook. It is a challenge coming to terms with the fact that in our day in age where we have connection to 7 billion people at our fingertips, we still, in a sense, feel alone. There's still a void. A void that can only be filled with human, one to one connection. Which is why you might be asking yourself what the reason is for a large audience. Most, or the general population, only show a happy faces and an amazing social life. You might think they're always happy. However that's all we see. We never see those peoples' sad moments in life; their losses; their aches and pains. Plus, we may fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to other people and ONLY to what we believe what their life might be like according to what we see on Facebook. I'm rambling. I know. My point is, I think its good you deactivated it. It'll feel like a detox, I'm sure. I've done it before. 🙂
I feel I need a break from it.
So, I'm going to try to keep it deactivated for a month and cleanse my mind from the fake crap.
Have you guys felt this way? I do, like it for keeping up with important events for my kids but I started posting those so I was the only one seeing it. I feel like you have this large audience but for what reason? I guess, I don't really see the point in it, right now.
I did this too. I've been off FB since January, and I feel free, if that makes sense. For some reason it was chaining me down, I was a slave to keeping up with other people's staged lives. I'm glad you're taking a break too! 🙂

Do you ever wonder why we put so much of our hearts into astrology? We may or may not marry or commit ourselves to someone with a compatible chart....but why do we even humor this system? It is so crazy to me how vulnerable we have become as a community.
received a text message on my phone Thursday night from a random girl from my boyfriends phone saying that my gem had bought her a ring and that i wasnt special because he is screwing 20 women and that he was passed out in her bed at that very moment. smh
Last week a gemini guy (40) asked me (33) out for casual drinks..on Valentine's Day. We had such a great time having some drinks, listening to some live music, until like 3am. Before he got out of the taxi he mentioned a definite second date..but we've ba

Let me preface this by saying I am not sure if this is the right place to post this... seeing as I am a Virgo. Honestly Im usually a lurker and read up on my own laughable experiences here and learn through others. Just so you have some info - b/c of

Hey Gems.....Recently my Gemini male friend has been MIA and I think it's because he took a few of our conversations seriously that we always play and joke about. I am seriously considering quitting this job just so I don't have to see him again or any of
Have any of you ever been with an Aquarius in a relationship? What was that experience like? We are supposed to be the matched pair in the entire zodiac. That's pretty amazing!! Let's see how true that really is.
Hey Gems, the infamous communicators of the Zodiac :P Do you typically respond if an ex reaches out or ignore? If you reply is it because you miss them, or just being nice? Also, how can one tell if you are happy to hear from the ex and/or a clue you mig
Okay i went crazy on my Gemini ex and we've been playing this cat and mouse game for 8 years now but now I'm playing alone. He doesn't respond to me anymore because he still thinks I'm playing mind games with him . He asked me 3 times in the past 2 years
After you Gemini woman have or had sex with a guy, what's your feelings afterwards or what do you start to analyze? Seemingly, if you like that person more than a friend. What's the next step for you woman after that encounter.
Do gemini's, particularly men, like talking almost every day ? I was having a conversation with a gemini guy and I was the last one to respond and he didn't say anything, I can only assume what I said didn't interest him so he didn't respond. We haven't t
Hypothetically speaking and if you had this I goal experience please share. How do you Gemini woman act around guys you like more than a friend in a party scene vrs s guy you see just as a friend?
Hi Gemi's. I am new to this Gemini Forum because I didn't have Geminis around me . I am a Capricorn 18 years old and in High school. I used to have a friend in my primary who was a Gemini and after 6th grade he left the school because his family was shi
Hi, Having known many gemini males, I feel that to them, everything new/exotic is exciting and perfect (regardless of actual quality) and once they get tired of it, even the seemingly most perfect/high "quality" thing or person can seem like rubbish, bo
