Well you also have to understand that on social media, people are trying to show you the absolute best part of themselves. Even if it means flat out lying, or embellishing a little bit. They are trying to paint a picture to share themselves to the rest of the world, and that picture is the prettiest, nicest, strongest, and every other good quality word you can throw in.

I don't know why people say that all the time like its a bad thing. (I don't mean you, fwiw!)
Nobody wants to read trashy people bitching about their lives on social media. Look how often people here complain about the women whining about men on Facebook. We want to see the good stuff, so I don't know why it is criticized in conversations like this one.
People have been taking posed, smiling photos long before social media ever came around. Its not like they were sticking photos of their hardships into photo albums.
Honestly, if someone struggles seeing something as innocent as happy, smiling photos of other people's lives.. they should probably seek some help working through that. It doesn't mean they are a bad person. It just means they need to get healthier mentally.

Or the most dramatic parts, saw one not long ago "To all my haters out there......." which was all a bunch of really trivial stuff.
