there’s like max 10 people I care about form high school that I still want to even be in slight contact with but somehow I have 300 followers on Instagram and like 90 Facebook friends. what the fuck I don’t want to know these things about people and I don’t want it to be a big deal that I unfollow these people I barely if ever spoke to during the time we were actually supposed to talk. I’m not going to create this beautiful story of Oh yanno we didn’t talk in elementary school but we became the best of friends in our 20s! No!! Ew!! So why am I still connected with all of these random people! Do they feel the same way about me?? Why are we connected in this way it’s fucking insidious

#I shouldn’t know that you’re pregnant or engaged or just got married or have self harm tattoos #that is so personal and I’m a nobody in your life why am I allowed to see this #and Ik also that these people are allowing me to see this stuff #but I feel bad when I remove people from my followers #in a self-centered way and a Oh yanno what if they thought I was cool and genuinely care about what I post #even though I haven’t posted in months and there’s literally plenty of reasons to unfollow me #like I’m not holding people hostage #but also my account is private so I kinda am #bc I feel embarrassed when I request to follow someone from high school that I unfollowed a while back for whatever reason #like I’m following almost 200 people so honestly I should just remove everyone 💗#I didn’t mean to stop typing there but I mean I should remove everyone I don’t follow #because literally it should just be the people I can actually think of that I shiuld keep following #oh also not to dox myself if anyone is reading this but I feel like this is a bigger deal bc of how small the town was and that like #yanno your mom will say Oh I saw so-and-sos mom or dad at the grocery store today! how is so-and-so doing!#like hell if i know bestie! why should I know! but I do know bc I still follow them!#I guess that’s the only reason and it’s a stupid one #the trauma of having a mom yanno hahaha.#like I don’t even tell my friends my business because I just wanted to keep it a secret because I’m annoying. but literally 5 people phone #my mom every day! and they all want to fucking talk to me about my shit! they probably know the last time I used the bathroom and that’s #not even an exaggeration. my mon talks about my showering habits to every 50+ y/o and I can’t take it dude it’s so much #and of course yanno the classic mom thing! of making it my fault! love the guilt trip! can’t have shit in Detroit yanno! what’s the point
