She may just suck at posting. Most people do.

Do people really keep track of who likes who's FB posts?

Not because anything changed in terms of my feelings, but more so, I just thought that it may have been a little much to like her posts all the time.

But if you live with someone or see them often irl, its redundant to also be all over their SM.

Great posts thanks!

I don't think she is insecure- she just seems to have a very different perspective on social media use and meaning.

I know that I have friends I see all the time and at work and I still interact with them all the time on Facebook/Insta, etc. My thing is it's fun and it adds to my friendships.
