Talking to friends face to face is actually more rewarding and creates a closer bond than texting or other communications where you are physically apart. With many of my real life friends I’m not friends on Facebook, Twitter, etc. and no one cares. We actually have something to talk about when we see each other because we don’t constantly check each other’s feeds. We have each other’s phone numbers and use a common messenger app to organize and meet, or if we haven’t seen each other in a while to see how the other is doing.
If you need Twitter or whatever medium for networking, set time limits. If you need Facebook to talk to colleagues … and talking to them in the office is not an option for whatever reason … set time limits. You don’t have to be available 24/7 for them and you don’t have to check 24/7 on their lives.
