It seems these days my wife (no pics, soft OT 6.5) gets essentially every thought or opinion she has from instagram. Parenting tips, health and wellness, food recipes, career advice, you name it. I get links all the time from her to these posts with 15 slides each, which sometimes I get quizzed on at the end of the day to see if I read them (I rarely do.)
If she hasn’t seen something on her algorithm it’s almost like it can’t be true or doesn’t exist until instagram verifies it for her. Many of her friends do the same shite too. I’m not sure they could function on a daily basis without their insta-cope.
My baw has been dealing with this from his wife. Apparently its gotten kind of crazy.

This is the literal act of ignoring the person right in front of you in favor of your phone, and "quizzing you" is demeaning. Psychologically, it sends a powerful, and vindictive message that whatever is on your screen from IG is more interesting than you.

But we all look forward to the yearly happy birthday post that she strong arms you into posting about her.

The quizzing thing is not often anymore since I essentially just started ignoring it.
The worst side effect of this I think for us is that she develops this dogmatic way of thinking that then creates unrealistic standards.

I kind of agree, just don't see this going away anytime soon.
In the meantime, there's still a lot of women who aren't like this that you could pursue unless the surburban chicks who make Target and Starbucks runs everyday is your type.

It’s not unique to Instagram. The proliferation of short form social media is one of the most damaging things to be normalized in modern history.

Not too different than women reading stacks of magazines back in the day: Redbook, People, Cosmopolitan, Better Homes and Gardens, Good Housekeeping, Woman's Day, etc.
