You read that right. I broke up with Facebook.  It just wasn’t a very healthy relationship. I realized that the people that matter the most will get in contact with me. Additionally, I was tired of the noise. I enjoyed people posting pictures of their kids or something cool, but that was getting drowned out by crap. Whether we admit it or not, most of what we post benefits no one.

Honestly, Facebook was more about being a voyeur in other people’s lives than strengthening or establishing meaningful relationships. Another thing most people won’t readily admit. I just didn’t want to do that anymore.

I made a formal announcement before I shut off my account. Those that wanted to stay in contact got the information to stay in touch. I am hoping to have more meaningful relationships with them without Facebook running interference.
