Everyone with a social media account on Twitter likes to meet new people, correct? Right, if they're honest; myself included. I've been on FB since 2006 and Twitter since July 2013. Honestly, I like FB & Twitter and they are the only social media accounts I will ever have. My FB posts feature positive content because I believe we need more positivity in a world full of nonsense. At the same time, I will post real talk whenever it's laid upon my heart. Many of my FB posts have been turned into blogs. I have one question: Why do some people think you're supposed to roll over & die because they unfriended you or unfollowed you on social media? That's crazy. Some folks make this grand announcement of cleaning their friend list, unfollowing someone on Twitter, etc.#ThatMoment when you are unfriended on FB & you could care less.👉🏾✌🏿️— Florida Made (@RichardMIATL) March 1, 2016
If you're going to unfriend someone, just DO IT; no need to make a PSA. I was unfriended by a former FB friend (she's no longer worth mentioning) because I stood firm in my position regarding marriage relationships. All that proved was I can stand firm in my position. Many people are scared to stand by their social media posts because they don't want to lose likes, followers on Twitter or FB friends. Me, not so much. I've never posted for likes or followers. Whatever I post on social media, I'll say the same thing offline. It so happens that people like my FB stats, so I'll keep posting inspiration, positivity and real talk. It's easy to stand by your comments when you're getting FB likes & Twitter followers, but are you tough enough to stand firm in your position when you're unfriended or unfollowed?
