strict rules with face book only family and friends that I have met in person are on my friend list...there are a few family members I have not met but they are the exception to the rule. I also will set up the face book feed so I dont see any extremely libral and politicly active family members post. there are onl three younger nieces I feel I have to do that with and if they were not family I would unfriend them. I find that its enjoyable when you actually know the person for real and socialize with them in person on occasion .
It felt like I was in high school all over again. I felt like I had to be polite, and say 'oh so cute' even when I didn't think it was. I quickly learned that honesty is not welcome. I definitely think it was a combination of factors that made me walk away. It just wasn't for me. But in real life, I enjoy the 5 minute, seemingly honest, conversation with a stranger over the 3 hour long bullshit family get-together anyway.
there' is just me no wife so I really enjoy hearing from family members but you are right there are conversations you just dont have on line with friends from child hood.
