I don’t really use social media at all. I do have accounts on instagram and Facebook but only use them to occasionally post my art but never any personal posts, while most of the people i know are borderline addicted to sharing every moment of their life online.

But I’ve been thinking lately that maybe i should be doing more of that. I think it would be easier to talk to people online and then I’d be more comfortable talking to them face to face.

But on the other hand… I feel a bit weird to start posting personal posts suddenly when everyone knows me as someone who doesn’t really do that. I generally have a hard time doing something out of what people expect from me.

This is a bit of a ramble. Anyone have a similar experience/thought process? How do you make friends??

    I don’t think it’s necessary. There’s ways to connect with people irl; taking a course for example. I do find social media can be useful for finding people with similar interests, but that doesn’t require posting your whole life online.
