At some point of time, I was also guilty of taking too many selfies .. But who isn’t .. I thought its really cool and trendy to click selfies and post them social media, that’s what everyone does.. Until I really gave a thought that is this what I really want .. So here are things one should consider while clicking a selfie or posting them on social media…Some myths that I am gonna burst in my blog …
- No one actually cares.. Sad but true.. Unless you are on an exotic vacation
or on some holiday with your friends nobody really wants to see your picture of
your face in 12 different angles no matter how beautiful you are …
- The number of likes on your profile picture is not directly co related
to your self worth.. No seriously If you happen to post a selfie you spent 20
minutes getting perfect and no one notice .. What do you do .. Delete the picture????
Well in that case you really need to check your priorities...
- No
body except for the ones shown in movies wake up looking all pretty.. Come on
we all know this and have been through this... You did not #Wakeuplikethat ..
- Selfies do portray self confidence .. For some men yes .. A girl who is comfortable to take photos of herself and post them on social media shows confidence while to many it simply means she needs too much of attention .. Infact when some men were asked they would simply say “Selfies are less about guys and more about girls. It's like this thing they do to impress and make each other jealous. I don't think it has anything to do with guys, which makes it a little pathetic. “It’s not like they're looking for our approval — they're looking for each other’s” Some even went further stating that if irritating people was a crime you would be behind bars… Think about it .. Does one really need anyone's approval ???
- Loving yourself is awesome and yes absolutely necessary but if you think people care about the subtle difference between your Monday make up and Saturday makeup you are delusional.
- Adding
hashtags like #ugly, #nomakeup and #allnatural are not so subtle ways of
fishing for compliments.. I hate to break it to you that everyone can see
through your humble bragging.
- When you post perfect selfie we all know 20 awful ones you took before posting this one …
- Do you really want to see yourself in a slideshow of most ridiculous selfies?? Your duck face is going to get you mocked don’t let it come to that you will regret it ..
- You will lose followers.. One of the most embarrassing instagram truths unless you’re taking selfies in constantly changing locations (in an elevator one minute, next to a beach the next), then your face is not enough to keep people interested. And let’s be honest — you’re in your bedroom.
- You should be embarrassed if you do this in public. If you ask someone, they would gladly take a normal picture of you that doesn’t cut you off at the shoulders. You’re more than a floating head, but all those close up shots of your face are starting to suggest otherwise.
But wait a second .. I haven't yet finished writing. There are many
things said and done about girls clicking selfies..But hey what about men clicking selfies.. We do come across men who click
selfies.. Am I right??? .. Having all said and done girls .......
Never date a guy who
clicks selfies .. Sarcasm intended !!!
According to studies ‘Taking selfies is not an addiction - it’s a symptom of Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) that involves checking one’s appearance.’ Sufferers of BDD can spend hours trying to take pictures that do not show any defects or flaws in their appearance, which they are very aware of but which might be unnoticeable to others…
Be confident .. Be you ..
