It didn't take long for me to see what pouring over/thinking about/being suspicious of somebody else' social media was doing to me.
It got so that it consumed me. Big hard ball of suspicion and dread in my stomach

I decided to stop caring about what other people are doing with their time when what I was doing with mine was more important.
Social Media is a burden for many

Seems like a bottomless pit of lies.

Hahah, yikes. Sounds like you made the right decision.

I wonder where people like this can develop maintained satisfaction. If you start learning to cover up early, you can be good at lying, but if you're lying in every area of your life, it seems like you'd need to be at a running pace just to maintain. Where will it end for him? And what effect on the son? Could the son's introversion (or apparent introversion) be an effect/result of his father...? ("Half the activities he does with his kid"-- does his kid have a choice in these matters? It seems like the son might know....)
