A big manifestation of ego in social media is visible through the option follow. Everyone wants fans, a big community, someone who will admire them, buy their stuff, and obey orders.
What would celebrities in old times say about this mess? Ava Gardner, Marylin Monroe, Brigitte Bardot did not need social media, they were adored and followed by fans.
Today, every plastic girl with a duck face thinks she is a star. Every guy who has naked photos and muscles expects women are slaves who will obey him.
As everyone who wants to upgrade online business, in my case books, I need followers. I follow many people, but I will unfollow them if they bother me in private. That is my basic rule if I don't know you if I never talked to you before, and you insist to bother me, I will block you.
In other ways, I don't think that I am better than anyone else. I am not a star and I am not pretentious.
This is how some women and men think, they will follow a bunch of people and when they reach a big number, they will unfollow them without a reason.
There is a worse thing. Some people will bother you in your inbox to give them likes, listen to their videos, share and buy their books. You are worse than a beggar, you know. Who do you think you are? Just because a guy said to me I am in good shape, I am not impressed. This is not how you talk with unknown women.
A cheap approach, filthy messages, and spam is not something that will bring you points.
Let people decide do they like you or not.
You can't force them, you will get blocked.
If you are a guy, and you ask for a virtual flirt, go to Tinder. Don't get lost in Goodreads or Pinterest looking for love.
We all know those guys who describe themselves as "a nice, caring man who asks for a woman. "
Go with this bullshit somewhere else.
If you think you are a star and treat me like I am your slave, you will get a kick in your ass. You did not impress me, and if you are losing followers, you know why it happens.
