Does Facebook or other social networking sites make you feel bad?

Does anyone feel insecure or worried about themselves on Facebook or Myspace? Stressing out about their profiles and stuff? Worrying about social games? Feeling the pressure that you have to look your best on there? Present your best image on those sites?

Does Facebook or other social networking sites make you feel bad?
Yes I do worry about it.





I'm concerned about how I'll appear if I post a certain pic or a blog. I am trying to get passed this because if I can't be myself online where can I be myself?





However, I find that places where I don't know anyone offline and I don't have to post any pics of myself (so people I know can't place me) can allow me to be more truthful - very truthful - about my problems on my blogs, etc.
Reply:no i just feel bad cause i don't have as many friends as everyone else lol
Reply:Not at all. I'm there to have a good time! If people don't like me, that's fine. If people like me, that's fine. I'm not there to be the most popular person!
Reply:lol. not really. but i do know a lot of people who do, especially photo-wise. many of them take pictures for the sole purpose of putting it up on facebook. and if someone happens to take a 'bad' picture of them they're like "PLEASE, DONT PUT THAT PICTURE ON FACEBOOK. I BEG YOU!!". Really, grovelling.
Reply:Not really. The circles I run with in real life are the same circles I have on these social networks. I'm real both on and off the internet.
