No one likes me on Facebook

[BluesRunTheGame]

I need some new people in my life cos apparently my friends and family are all shit.

Fuck Fecesbook (and Twatter, and other loser media). My PharmD girlfriend got one and wanted me to get one, then friend her. I didn't, then she wound up closing hers within a year, finding it lame. (What she and I had instead was an epic email correspondence. Apparently she somehow considers me a decent writer despite how much I hate writing, but I'm on the piss poor side of average compared to most of the membership here and on other sites.)

I used to get hundreds of likes on FB.
Now, I seldom post anything but when I do, I can barely get 3 likes lol.

Anyway, I don't give a damn about facebook.

Btw, getting new friends is a good idea. There are lots of people who will be willing to have a friendship with you, even if it's just virtual.
I mean, look at us! :D

Agree with the above, facebook is shite. It's just a glory "look at me" exercise. People only post what they want you to see, the great and good in their lives. When I was younger facebook was where it was at, as I've aged and matured I've realised it's a load of rubbish. Don't stress about friends on facebook, it ain't a true representation of life.

PS. Hark at me talking like I'm some old codger - I'm only 25

It still hurts though.

It shouldn't.

But it still fucking hurts.

I know, it's like when someone you know doesn't say hello, only times a thousand.

understandable. 'likes' are basically a symbol of worth—almost like a social currency. i see vapid youtube celebrities get recognition and it makes me insane and makes me feel worthless. i know it hurts, trust me. it's like not getting a card on valentine's day or something.

lol, i just realized this site has a 'like' system. now i feel a little bit embarrassed... it doesn't always have to be bad i suppose.

Cool indie shit.

Social media is a cesspit of narcissism, virtue signalling, bullying and everything in-between - it will make you feel suicidal if you are not already. Do not be worried about being unable to form relationships on those platforms, because any connections that you have or will make with others are likely superficial.

This is not to say that there are not genuine and kind-hearted individuals, pages and communities on social media platforms however, but it can be difficult to navigate through so much hostility to point that it might not be worth the risk.

Hey mate Facebook means nothing in reality . I think it's probably one of the worst things for peoples mental health because it makes you compare yourself to everyone else's 'highlight reel' and gives the false impression that everybody's life is better than yours. It's great when things are going well in your life but when you're feeling down it can exasperate those feelings in my opinion . I personally think fb should be banned and just replace with a messenger with event organisation functionality. I guarantee people's mental health would improve drastically

"Fecesbook"
Apt description.

Skipped to responding without reading anything again, so maybe I will embarrass myself,?

It might sound strange, but there are people out there who do not use Facebook ever... Myself included as one of them. I've not except three times ever logged onto Facebook.. except for my ex girlfriend, I would not even have a Facebook account, she set it up and I looked at it when she did, and never went back to it except twice more.

I'm out of the loop, but no way do not worry is easy for me to say.

If you or anyone else ever wants to talk, well.. you know where I am.. every day on Sanctionedsuicide.

 

[The end !]

Fuck Facebook , no one likes that garbage . Cancer of the internet. Place where ppl flex their job , relationship , body etc

 

[newave3]

I'm so glad I grew up in the 70's and 80's. We used to actually have to form relationships with people face to face. Imagine that!
Fuck Facebook and that cyborg that runs it. He is one of the most evil people on the planet. Facebook and other social media sites have led to increased feelings of depression, anxiety and loneliness amongst our young people. All the while the tech barons get filthy rich and control how we feel,think and interact with each other.

Blues, the amount of friends you have on FB means about as much as last fart you cut. Concentrate on improving yourself by learning usable work skills and developing meaningful relationships with people in real life, not on the internet.

Stay away from these sites, when I was in one of my attempts I deleted everything and the truth is that it is one of the few things that I do not regret.

 

[Sherri]

I just use FB for pages I follow. The rest I don't care about fake happiness.

 

[SuicidallyCurious]

Social media is junk. I quit it for five years. My life improved in many ways . I was able to enjoy real life and bring closure to many things in that time . Delete it for your own good

 

[angelfeather]

I deleted my fb and have no regrets. I'd rather come on here, as don't feel judged or be made to feel worthless like social media does to you. It's so negative in so many different ways.

 

[fixitinpost]

As someone who works in software engineering, I find myself ashamed that our industry created these monsters known as social media. From a psychological perspective, it's as if they were designed to induce anxiety in people. They've had a profound negative impact on how we communicate. They enable toxic platforms and are responsible for the proliferation of "fake news". They've created a sphere where our worth is reduced to numbers.

Not to mention the poor ethics that these companies are run on. Facebook especially.

Don't let this get to you OP. Facebook likes have no meaning in the real world.

Much love and hugs to you <3

Facebook often makes me feel incredibly lonely. Number of times I've posted things and get no likes. It's like I don't exist any more. Using it less and less these days. Will probably close the account altogether. Same goes with Twitter
