We are in the times where social media is very relevant in our everyday lives. When meeting new people how much contact information do you give? I have found myself in a place where I want to share somethings and keep somethings to myself. I want to feel comfortable first before I let someone into certain parts of my life. (Facebook being one of them)
I don't have anything to hide really but I do feel like Facebook gives a prospect access to my family and my friends that I may not want them to have access to yet. Nor do I want to be blinded by obsessive searches through a persons photos to see if I can find anything that is not right... At least not at first... LOL... I do feel a little like social media can be a distraction when trying to date. You are almost dissected by every thing you say and/or do...
In a past relationship my significant other asked me to unfriend every man that I dated or had a encounter with. Was this a valid request. I mean the fact that it didn't work out for me and the person as a couple doesn't mean that we can not still be cordial... Is this wrong of me to think that way?
I think once you get to a certain level of commitment then I can open up myself to sharing more of my life. I think that is fair.
keep being yourself; you're doing the right thing.
