How much of your life is actually spent online?

I met someone recently through the Internet and all they talk about is, online ordering, getting tablets online, clothes on alibaba or Ali express, bitcoin, gorrilaz delivery.

They also are showing signs of "anxiety".

I don't want to coach them, but I feel like since they wanted to meet they want to lead a more rounded life!

They've spent a considerable amount of years even before the pandemic on the Internet!

That's the norm now. Everything we do is on the internet.

@Spoiledbrat maybe for you!
I still go to the shops, have meals in restaurants, go outside for fresh air.

I do those things too but I spend way more time on the internet. I shop online now more than I used to but I still go to shops and Costco and dinner. @Mellowgirl

@Spoiledbrat once I start working again, I aim to be here even less than I currently am.
It's a great way to meet some really amazing people. But spend too much time here and it can get a little toxic at times.
I also enjoy the peace and quiet that comes from not having an online presence. Since that's effectively death!

I've also been ill. I just had a major surgery and am still recovering. I've been weak and ill for about a year. @Mellowgirl
