Many people believe you can be happy and success &#8211; even at least in social media- if you look fabulous. So people are concerned with proving that they are looking good all the time and having fun in special places eating expensive dinner.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The flawless night out pictures are more important that the actual night itself.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>If a girl posts a picture\u00a0wearing\u00a0a new party dress\u00a0she&#8217;ve got, it\u2019s more likely for a new Facebook profile photo than an actually party.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> Not to mention, going out without uploading a new Snapchat story or Instagram picture is inconceivable. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Half the people in there will likely be on their phones if you walk on the street, or to be honest everywhere. If they\u2019re not taking selfies, they\u2019re\u00a0possibly on Tinder where happily meeting strangers through the Internet while the real people around themselves don&#8217;t even get eye contact. Because all that swiping right or left is heavily decided based on their appearance, you also cannot choose any picture on my profile. Even if it will take hours and hours to choose and photoshop it, you need to pick good one because that is the only way I can appeal\u00a0how active you are, how sociable you are, how pretty you are, and give the reason why other guy need to swipe right and should start conversation with you.\u00a0\u00a0Oh, we really should give a prize for someone who invent filter first!<\/p>\n<p>Not only just Tinder, Instagram, Facebook as well. You have way way more people on social media than real life. They see the picture you upload and judge you &#8211; maybe someone will envy you. So what is more important? Giving a good impression to 10 real life friends or uploading good picture for hundreds of your social-media friends? answer is simple. You know every people only post their best moments and best looking one and choose to keep their everydayness or worst ones privates, even you know that, but you don&#8217;t want to admit you want attention and want to look nice and better than someone who might see your picture in their &#8216;not so good day&#8217; and envy you like you do when you check Kardashian&#8217;s family on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes I wonder if people arrange to meet up with their friends because they miss them or because they haven\u2019t updated their Snapchat stories for a while and need some new material to prove to the world they\u2019re having a good time. The fact of the matter is, brag culture\u00a0has resulted in us being too busy narrating our lives online that we\u2019re forgetting to live them. Trust me, no great story\u00a0ever started\u00a0with \u201cHey, remember that time we took 37 photos in your car\u2026?\u201d Life is now a popularity contest, and it\u00a0seems that the popularity is less dependent on how many friends you have and is more\u00a0a reflection of how many Twitter followers you possess. Girls upload Instagram pictures and then delete them the next day if they did not receive a sufficient number of \u201clikes\u201d because that alone is considered a reflection of how many people like them in real life.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-40 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/hyeminchoi\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2017\/01\/beautiful-1869583_640-300x214.jpg\" alt=\"beautiful-1869583_640\" width=\"327\" height=\"233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/hyeminchoi\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2017\/01\/beautiful-1869583_640-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blog.buprojects.uk\/2016-2017\/hyeminchoi\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/34\/2017\/01\/beautiful-1869583_640.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 327px) 100vw, 327px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t let social media fool you. People who press like every picture you posted may not be the one who run straight to you when something happens to you and you need someone&#8217;s shoulder to cry.
