i’m finally allowed on social media at the age of 17. My parent were very strict growing up. i couldn’t do a thing. It made me a very contained child, I don’t talk much or have many friends in school. i downloaded instagram. Five mixtures later i got a notification “amanda.444 followed you”. amanda was a popular girl, I was surprised to see her follow me. I opended the app and followed her back anyway regardless of my overthinking. I started doing the dishes and had put my phone down for a little while, when i picked it back up i had three more followers band decided to make a post. i posted a picture of me with a 5lb fish i had caught blast wednesday out at my friends pond. Again i put my phone down and start getting ready for bed. 15 minutes later i pick up my phone again, “amanda.444 liked your post,” “ amanda.444 commented on your post “handsome.”” i looked my my phone surprised not knowing what to say. i respond back after two minutes and say “thank you beautiful” because she was. she was the most beautiful girl i’ve seen. i liked her comment so she would know i appreciated what she had said. after that i decided to turn my phone off for the night, until i got a message from amanda saying “ hey, how are you?”
