Social Networking vs. Reality

Looking back at what I've posted is pretty entertaining. If I was looking as some one who didn't know me, I would see that 75% of my tweets is one-liners and inside jokes, 20% are about soccer, and the remaining 5% have to do with drinking. Inevitably I would think that @SamJohnson7296 drinks, loves soccer, and tweets when he should be texting. All are true but they wouldn't come close to describing who I actually am. For example, if some one looked at my twitter posts they would think that I've never been in a relationship when in fact I've been in one for about a year. The thing is I hate when people post about their relationships, everyone who should be informed about it will be in person, so there's no need to tell a bunch of people I don't care for much about my personal life. Therefore, an outside viewer would have no idea I have a girlfriend. In conclusion, some random person would be able to learn true things about me but it would be far from the whole truth.
