    How to use "Supposed" in context?

    I've never been the biggest proponent of the "supposed" trend. For me, the term carries with it a negative connotation - implying something that isn't actually true.

    In recent years, however, the term has become more and more popular - especially on social media. It's used to describe things that people believe, but aren't actually true.

    For example, someone might say that they're "supposed to like" a certain band, or that they "supposed to be happy" on their birthday.

    This kind of thinking can lead to problems.
