[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Post away, OP.  I like seeing pics of my friends' homes.  I am very happy with my own nice, modestly-sized home and wouldn't be envious at all of your giant new build.  Trust me, if I know where you live I know about what you spent anyway.  But I would like to see what you chose as finishings, style, etc.  Like HGTV but even better since I know you.

I like seeing pics of people's vacations, too.  The more luxe, the better.  I am happy for my friends who get to go cool places, and someday when I travel again I'll post pics too.

The "hide everything" people seem to me to be the ones who must be deeply unhappy/jealous to anticipate their success causing so much angst in others.  Projecting, I'd bet.

I don't think any PP said to "hide everything."  And I think that is a fundamental problem with the prevailing attitude of our society:  that NOT showing something or posting pictures of their lives equates to "hiding" or implies some kind of unhappiness.

Some people just aren't into being flashy.  And whether you want to admit it or not, if you are posting a ton of pictures of your vacations and your house, et cetera, on a social media platform, then you are being flashy.

That's fine.  But don't assume that those who refrain from that are "hiding" something.

I kind of view people who overshare/overpost on facebook in the same way that I view people who do a lot of PDA:  They have to have an audience.
