Concerned Friends

It's funny how people react or comment about an FB status.

They over-react constantly. Concerned when the status message seems sad or approving when it is happy. As if they are privy to that person's life.

It strikes me as pretentious... as if they want to know if something is wrong and is actually hoping something is wrong. Why would anything really important be announced on an FB status, right? Why would a big change in life be announced there for everyone to see? Especially if the change is negative.

I automatically assume everything is fine with everyone unless they tell me directly that it is otherwise. I need not wait for a friend to say she is happy because I hope she is happy and assume this is true.

I hope people continue being concerned though. I love tripping on them.
