Speaker 1 (00:01):
Yeah, they talk better than they excited.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
These are the radio blogs on the friendship who writing
in our diaries, except we say them aloud. We call
them blogs. Caitlin, you're ready, Yes, take it away.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Dear blog.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
So I am very very curious what you guys think
about this, and I feel like everyone is going to
have their a different opinion in this room.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
But how much weight do you put on.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
Social media in general and also when you're in a relationship.
So recently it got back to me a friend of
mine mine told me that some people were talking about
my relationship and the difference between which my boyfriend posts
(00:45):
me on social media and I post him on social media. Okay,
which is interesting to be talking about in itself because like, hmm,
But basically, these people were saying that they were super
concerned for my boyfriend because he posts me a lot more.
He you know, expresses his feelings a lot more on
(01:09):
social and I don't really post him that much, and
so I must not like him. I must be hiding him.
They're concerned for him. Wow, very interesting. Who are these
people exactly? Very interesting?
Speaker 1 (01:23):
And you would think of right.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Now, right, and you'd be interested to know that they
never once reached out to him to go, yo, I'm concerned.
You're just you're just running your mouths okay.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
So I just think.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
It's very interesting. We have these conversations all the time.
You know. Some people have their certain social media rules.
Some people are really into looking at who views your stories.
Some people some people want to be posted. I feel like, A,
if I was a dude who wasn't posting my girl,
I'd be like keeping it player, you know. And B
(01:58):
I've just never been like that.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
And so are you keeping a player?
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Then I'm no, I'm because if you're a.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Guy that doesn't post, you're keeping a player. But you're
a girl who doesn't post that much, or you keeping
it plower.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Because I'm a girl that's not posting, I must be
hiding him or not liking him. I just feel like
it's a little bit of a double standard. I feel
like that's just my personal opinion. You don't have to
agree with me. First of all, I don't run his
social and I'm not a girl who's like, please post me.
It's just never been my thing. I don't really care.
He can post whatever he wants. If he wants to
(02:29):
post me, go for it. Never ask for that, don't
need that. Sometimes I just feel like a I move
a little slower and be I like to have something
just for myself. They would be happy to know I
have a close friend, story that I post him all
the time. Sometimes I just don't like to share every
little thing of what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Oh my, not a close friend because I don't see
him all the time. Oh that's good to know anyway.
I guess I'm a work friend. I'm just.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I'm just I'm just a work friend. Gotta earn it.
I gotta earn it. I got hell yeah, how long
did it take.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
You?
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Guys?
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I don't think you have to.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
I don't think you You don't have to post anybody
you don't want to post, especially if you guys have
discussed it. I mean, I guess if I were posting
you all the time and you never posted me and
we never talked about it, then I might start to
feel certain kind of.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Way about it.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
The other thing is, are you know I know that
he has a public job, but we have a more
public job. And I've had this argument in really, I'm
not docing him. I'm not docing him. I'm just saying
our listeners are very into our lives. They're they're very
connected to us. And I've had this argument with people
I've dated before too, where it's like, well, I post
(03:46):
you on my private Instagram for my friends and family only,
many of whom you've met, but you don't post me
on your public social media. And I think those are
two different things. Now, the people I there was one
particular person I dated who we never saw an eye
on them. It was like, Okay, well then I'm gonna
start posting you and then people are gonna write nasty
(04:07):
stuff in the comments and they're you're not gonna like it. Yeah,
And they're gonna either gonna friend you on you know,
they're gonna request you on all these platforms that you
don't want. You don't you don't know these folks, and
you may not want to approve them, and so we'll
go ahead and do that. Me though, not posting you
is more of a protection mechanism than it is me
not being, you know, wanted to be with you. Because
(04:28):
I talk about relationships that I'm in all the time.
I just think there's a it's just two different things. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
I also think like so the people that we're talking
about it, have never been in the same room with
us together, never seen.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Us together, which is where you should be.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Able to tell if someone like someone right, right, And
so we're putting more weight on social media than we
are on like real life interactions.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
And I just think it's interesting.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
You know, everyone in this room posts a different level
of their significant other.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Kiki doesn't post at all. Big Tim, Well.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
That's because she's singles.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
So that's right, my girl, say, and I won't until
I'm married because Big Tim, as you know today, might
be another Big Tim.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
He might decide on Friday.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Well he could be because I've never seen the real
Big Tim, So you could bring another guy.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Can at least be close friends on that post? Everybody's
my close friend? That's my problem. I think everybody's a
close friend. Clearly not. But for Big.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Tim, Yeah, he will never see the light of social
media because you know, for what what?
Speaker 1 (05:25):
What's the reason you don't need to be on my
social media?
Speaker 4 (05:27):
It doesn't dictate how I love him though, you know
he has a great life with me.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
That's your toys and has a choice. Can you post me, babe?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:38):
No, no, no, Now he actually stopped.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
He took away his whole social media, like he's just
off social media altogether.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Any girl, And I love that as easily, I guess
exactly on my birthday. I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
I'm like, dang, like I kind of wish my man,
would you know, because he used to be he sup
post me all. You look at his old pages all me,
so you know, I'm like, I kind of missed that.
But I can't have the best of up for us, Like, well.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
That's because you were running his social media.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
No.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
Not so.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
I used to one of those girls that would truly
believe like, oh, if you don't post, your're just gonna
make it other then you guys, I don't know one
likes more than the other or whatever.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Right. I used to believe that wholeheartedly. But what I've
realized now is.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
That these people, especially when it comes to that anniversary
post and it's like two pages long, there's usually a
lot of stuff under that, like it's not what it
seems the whole like we've been through hell and back.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
They're going through hell.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
And that there.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
The more you write, the more it's not doing well. No, Like,
the longer the caption, the more problems you're going through.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
In my experience, social media appearances are not what they seem.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
And we've all admitted that we read into people's relationship
based off their social media posts, like you just say it,
like we judge you off of your social media post.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So sometimes it's safer to just not do it.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
For what right?
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Can anything just be right anymore? No?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
No, actually no, I'm more concerned with why none of
us are well. I should say none of us.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
I should just wait to hear who's the worst talking
smack Fred.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Oh, so that'll be nice
Yeah, they talk better than they excited.
