You’re talking about _being shown_ photos you don’t care about, while GP is talking about showing your own photos to someone. I agree with the example you’re discussing, though.
Ah, you’re talking about main character syndrome. Showing pictures to someone is one of the cruelest things you can do; you’re probably boring and a terrible storyteller (most people are) but they’re going to feel obligated to not tell you that.
It’s always amazing to me that people almost universally hate other people’s slideshows, and then don’t have the self awareness to realize that they do the exact same thing.
>Showing pictures to someone is one of the cruelest things you can do
So you are saying that friends, family and significant others better no share old photos and memories with you? Because that is one of the cruelest things to do?
They can share those old photos and memories on social media, where their friends, families, and significant others can choose whether to look or ignore it.
