Social networking coined this much in demand term `follow' and now we all are so greedy about this .
Following was all about stalking when it came to physical presence of somebody but for these platforms which made it look so addictive and seductive.
I have been on twitter for quite some time now and find all kinds of people irrespective of gender following me or maybe I following them ,doesn't make a difference though till the time we can see each other on our timeline.
But at the same time somewhere the` follow me and you' becomes so ugly that it isn't anything about what we followed each other for.
Personalities clash and so do thoughts which had been so much appreciated till the doomsday.
In real life we all do love to have followers and maybe at a certain point gives us a Godly feeling but does it have a value add or contribution to our thinking,not that I could ever conclude on it.
We all are egoists who embark on the journey to make a point , something we feel so passionately about and there are only two options left. One is to accept it and the other is to leave it.Many choose the latter.
Some of them here, not that I believe in any gender bias entice you to follow them and they even reciprocate the gesture once the gullible` follower now' has , but one does tend to ponder where they got dropped off and when did it all happen. Yes they use the unfollow button just when you were following the other one.Was it jealousy or mere trap .Well keep guessing !
So in the end it is all about scoring some brownie points and making the other look like a fool. Part of the game as I would put it.
Follow me so closely resembles the principles of a political party besotted with dirty politics and the DMs so closely resemble chinese whispers being played all around and one being so oblivious to all of it that suddenly it dons upon that you could be the most hated person .Well as I said its all part of the game followers play.
So why all this at all. As, it is in our nature to court controversy,we love to be in the middle of it and so the carnival continues.
Did I survive this or not, is not the question but will this `Chaupal' survive the tussle between `Mars and Venus' Follow me certainly is the seductress many a times and takes you to the` well of disappointment' but carry on ,there is nothing to lose but maybe get drowned in the depth of this ugliness or lose your way in the chaos of heart and mind that prevails...
