... ah let's not continue this existential crisis.

A few final words...

I learnt a lot just by disappearing from my own network. I will definitely use these lessons and experience to build a new future for myself.

Life is full of surprises. What a way to end 2025.

[P7]
I also realized, some of my old friends or acquaintances have also disappeared from my life because they stopped existing on Social Media. I wonder, is this what they felt/feel?

Is our lives supposed to be like this?

If I continue disappearing and never show up again on their feed...

[P6]
We built a habit of not giving out phone numbers easily. FB and Insta were my main messenging platform.

Even friends whom I have a pretty deep and long history with, we don't have each other numbers just because we never thought this day might come. At least I did not.

[P5]
I need a new business strategy, one that doesn't only depend on social media. In theory, I still have my network and reputation, but in practice, I need a better method of connecting and staying connected with people.

Career aside, it also affect my personal relationships.

[P4]
The weird thing is, I want to use this opportunity to do a semi social media "detox". A real chance to be secluded. I know Bluesky is also a Social Media, but honestly I don't know anyone here and just writing my thoughts as posts

It is also a chance to re-examine how I want to run my career

[P3]
I might have lost job opportunities just because of this. Building my network back up from scratch after 12 years of working is not an easy feat, or a quick one. I did reached out and reconnect with some people who I have responsibilities for, but after, what will my future career hold?

[P2]
My entire network/connection, even to people from primary school, has always been via Facebook. We built a habit of only sharing phone number to the closest of friends and families.

Now without FB, it feels like I don't exist in my own social life. Which sounds horrifying...
