5 reasons of not using social media 1
1.Protection of Privacy
If I do not use social media, people will never know how old I am unless I tell them.
Wherever my daily routine happened will be exposed once I share a selfie, share a location or share a status. People will know where I live, where I eat lunches and
where I go to school. It is easy for people to find me by reorganizing a identifier in the picture which I send, even though we meet each other in cyberspace. Sometimes being away from social media means being away from ill-disposed lurkers.
Also, people will know everything that I post on my personal
profile before they talk to me. In other words, they will have a formed image of me in their mind before they know me. I prefer a better start to a friendship that happened in real world, rather than social media.
2.More spare time
If I do not use social media, I can save more time for personal use.
I realize I am wasting time when I am seeing what Friend A post
ed and what Friend B
ate for dinner every day. I will get almost a whole day
every week if I can save one hour which is spent on social media every day. Searching on social media and new updates cannot help me improve myself. I can use the saved day to read a book, have a short trip with friends, and learn how to bake a birthday cake.
3.Self-esteem
If I do not use social media, I would not be labeled as “popular” or “unpopular” by how many “likes” I get.
when I see a person's profile I will think “he/she must be pretty good at socializing” when I see that this person h
as a large amount of friends in his/her social media circle. Similarly, I will feel upset if I do not get many “likes” and comments from my friends. I will keep refreshing the page until I receive a satisfied amount of responses. It will make my heart break and I will lose a lot of time by waiting for response at the same time.
