I haven’t seen her for a while but she’s always finding ‘content’ wherever she goes. When I’d hang out at her house, she’d constantly be on her phone or laptop or both – “Work-related”. She has a friend who is super wealthy and anytime she’s at their house, you know her other friends/followers have to know too,” wrote a Reddit user. “It’s crazy to me how much some of my friends just completely drop off if I’m not using social media to keep up with them. Like if I send a normal text I just won’t hear from them, but they’re always on Instagram so if I post anything/am active, they’re all of a sudden in touch or liking stuff. Just on it all the time and totally spaced out from real life friendships it seems like,” added another. “You could have just started eating without her,” suggested a third.
