Random Records- Modern day Dilemmas

These days I face a new dilemma... More so if it's any of my friend's and family's birthdays.

Here is how it goes:

Let's say I have a friend to whom I am connected in many channels like Facebook, WhatsApp, with atleast 2 common Whatsapp groups.

When it is someone's birthday, I do DM on WhatsApp...and I get a response.. In the ideal case, the loop should close here..

But...

After a while, I see that people have started to send their wishes in one of the WhatsApp groups... for which my friend responds to them by thanking each one of them who has wished ..

Here is My first dilemma... Should I message again here?

I do not want others to think that I don’t message on someone's birthday...

                      So I send another wish to the Group. and get a response...Now this feels cool 😎




By evening I check my Facebook..

There again there are timeline wishes pouring and again there are responses to each of the messages...Also, I notice that people who had wished on the group also wrote on Facebook...

This was my second dilemma... Should I write on FB Timeline or not?

Then I reasoned that Facebook messages will stay for years and Whatsapp message does not..

So for the sake of longevity, I wish again on the Facebook timeline... Finally!

 I am happy that I am not on Signal, Telegram, Instagram and Twitter!
