this makes no sense to me. you can have pride about accomplishments. but why must you post about them?
Why not post or share something good that happened, or a big accomplishment or success? I don't mind hearing about other people's successes and accomplishments.
Quote:
why can't you just have pride without posting?
Because at times I (and other people) like sharing good news.
Quote:
or maybe in conversation with friends/family tell them about your accomplishments IN PERSON in conversation,
99% of my family and friends live 400-2400+ miles away, so that is not a viable option.
Quote:
the way it used to be done, and share it with people you love/care about.
SM can be a convenient, viable way to share all sorts of news, or whatever people wish to share. Don't like it? Unfollow or unfriend.

WHY MUST IT BE POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA?!?!? i'm convinced it's solely to get an abundance of compliments.
It's not an issue of "must." It's an issue of want. Because some people want to. So what if it's for compliments, praise, appreciation, validation, etc. I'm happy for/when family and friends share great news. I can empathize.

sorry i'm venting, i just can't understand the whole posting on social media thing... ABOUT ANYTHING - not just selfies.
I can't understand why you care so much about other people's doings and happenings.
My GF is a high school chemistry teacher and she loves the Kardashians and those home buying/makeover shows. She does selfies, but not like in an obsessive way. She doesn't own a selfie stick FWIW.
I found out a great indicator of a girl's ability to think deeper about life and have her life in command. Number of selfies she takes and posts on social media. I did a little study across female friends and even ex'es. And it's so linear. I mean I am not discovering America here but the more selfies a girl takes the less she is into reading and more into real housewives of wherever the f***. Has anybody found an exception to that? Do you mind your GF being like that all? Question for guys mostly I guess.
LOL!!! No, it's generally narcissism.
"On fleek"?
