When friend groups get trapped in social media personas during real-life interactions

In our friend group, we've all developed these social media versions of our lives that we maintain even when we're together in person, and it's gotten weird. We're having conversations about our performed lives rather than our actual lives, and I don't think any of us knows how to break out of it without seeming like the dramatic one.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Digital personas have become so dominant that they're replacing authentic friendship even in face-to-face interactions.
