I appreciate my friends on there. Without some of the connections I have made, I would not have discovered what narcissism was (both my mother and my ex have it). I would not have been knowledgeable about the existence of some of the support groups I now belong to. I would not have met some of the most supportive and loving friends I've ever had. Some of those very people, whom I've never met personally, but who treat me better than anyone in my family (excluding my kids, of course), ever have. So yeah - I'm grateful for that because it allowed me certain freedoms from things/toxic people IRL.
It also led me to this site. So without it, I probably wouldn't be here.
I don't get on it every day like I used to. I check in maybe once or twice a week, if I remember. People understand that I've been busy with school and RL stuffs. But I like FB. I love the connections I've made even more. I'm friends with about 10 of you on here.
As for the memes: Sometimes someone posts a meme that I can relate to. Sometimes I see a meme that says what I am unable to say. Sometimes I see a meme that makes me laugh or cry or gives me feelings of nostalgia. Memes are supposed to do just that: elicit some sort of feeling from the person reading it.
So really, if you can't stand any of the things I mentioned, then get rid of your FB and forget you ever had it. Problem solved.
