       | It's funny but points to a fundamental reason I got off social
       | media. In healthy relationships, you can (healthily) infer a lot
       | in a conversation because you have invested in getting to know
       | the other individual. I can say things like, "You know I wouldn't
       | agree with that," and I don't need to offer up dozens of pieces
       | of evidence to prove it.
