Teen girl; no social networking sites ?

[Amanda]

Ive recently deleted my facebook, twitter, and instagram. Drama, fights and im also just getting into a relationship and i feel better if im not using those sites. My closest friend loves all those sites shes on them all day long and even if we hangout shes checking her facebook constantly. Its very bothersome, should i say anything or do you think im crazy for having no social media? I like to feel normal but lifes easier without them

You ma'am are RARE

There's nothing wrong with not using them. As long as you're happy without them you're fine.

If you think it's bad for her and that it's negative for her tell her what deleting them has done for you. Don't bug her too much about it though. If she wants to keep them leave it at that. Lol I wish I ha the guts to delete all my accounts.

Good for you.I always tell my daughter that all those sites do are cause drama and trouble.I know mothers who take their children out just to take pictures for fb.It's retarded.

Well, I don't think you're crazy at all. And you're definitely right about one thing. Facebook = drama. There's not too much you can do about your friend if she choses to use social networking sites. There are healthy/ benefical ways to use these sites. However, you CAN and SHOULD tell her how you feel about her face booking while you're hanging out. It's rude. It's like blabbing on the phone forever while hanging out. If I were you I would tell her that you feel like when you guys hang out, you'd prefer for it to be just the two of you, not the two of you plus 467 FB friends!
