I don't know if I'm a guy with an unusually large amount of secrets or something, or if I'm too reserved, but I've found Facebook almost useless because of the large amount of social conflicts it creates by allowing different friends to see the entirety of my social life. Anyone else have this problem?
For example, there are some friends I want to have a certain image of me (i.e. girls, co-workers) that conflicts with what I wanna tell another friend (i.e. a closer drinking buddy)... or if I've been on a couple dates with someone I don't want them to see what I wrote to another girl I'm interested in. Similarly, there are people from work on there and family members as well that are all capable of seeing what I post. The totality of all those people makes it almost impossible for me to write or comment on something, or post pictures, without being akward to someone else.
So I hardly ever use it except for PMs or brief polite remarks. Yet almost everyone else I know on there has like albums upon albums of photos and give all ranges of comments to dozens of friends every hour... they must have fairly innocent lives with nothing to hide...
