This is the problem I have found with Facebook. At first it was fun -- "Yay, I'm doing something! I'm going to post about it because I am this happy-go-lucky person that is always excited about whatever I'm doing." And then all of the sudden, when you are doing stuff and you take a picture of it, or write about it, or tag people in... you get messages from some of your other friends that it made them mad because they were busy that day or they didn't know you were going to go do such-and-such and why didn't you include them. Well, I have a lot of friends and trust me -- every single last one of them is invited to hang out every single day if they want to. But I am just not a planner. If someone calls and says, "Hey, let's hang out." Then I go hang out with them. Only time I don't is when I'm working. So I am always either working or hanging out with someone. So if I post that I am hanging out with someone then everyone else gets mad? This has happened to my like 500 times at this point. And I am not an idiot-- I have tried NOT POSTING about it and then everybody is like, "Amanda, why aren't you posting? Are you depressed? Amanda, are you alright? Amanda, is your business doing bad? Amanda, you don't have any friends any more?" NO, I'M JUST NOT POSTING ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT CAUSES TROUBLE and I DON'T KNOW WHY.

So I've reached the conclusion that I am just not going to worry about it and I'm going to do what I want and be happy.

I don't know what else to do. I don't like it that if I hang out with someone and then post about it then that person gets picked on either. I don't want to hurt people just by hanging out with them and posting about it.

But like I said, I really don't know what to do about it. I have stopped posting about hanging out with people for the most part, so now there are people asking me the questions. But they don't know that I do stuff -- I just don't post about it as much anymore.

I guess, sometimes I will post and sometimes I won't and I'm just not even going to think about it. I shouldn't be made to feel like a villain because I was hanging out with someone. I love everyone. I want to be friends with everyone.
