Have you ever read one of your friend’s statuses on Facebook and felt completely disgusted? Was the status was way confusing? Did you ask yourself, “Why is he/she even my friend?”
Of course you have! We all have that one friend who literally writes their whole life story including the gruesome details, adding the horrible grammar and the occasional Facebook fight. If you don’t have that friend on your page, you might be that friend. It’s okay now and again…we make mistakes. It’s what makes us human. Sometimes grammar isn’t the easiest thing. And surely you love talking about the accomplishments you achieve even if it’s just you and your boyfriend going out for ice cream.
The only problem is conflicts arise when we forget how to stay classy on social media. Of course, social media is your escape. It’s understandable if Twitter might be the place you post your problems and Instagram might be your online scrap book, but as ladies, the idea of social media is to show how exciting our lives are. We don’t want people sulking and hating us from our statuses. We only want them to be informed about how great our lives are. Hopefully, they will join us because they want to have fun too. The best way to avoid these situations is to follow the four unspoken rules in social media. Yes, there are four unspoken rules that are never said allowed, but many understand these rules like the back of their hand. The best way to understand the rules is to learn them.
1.Don’t Kiss and Tell
Posting your relationship is one thing, but your friends do not want to know all of the details in your love life. All we need to know is that you love him. You can show a couple of pictures of both of you getting along and such. Maybe even a hug or two. Other than that, make sure lips stays sealed about the other details. Save it for your best friend, not your Facebook family.
2.Avoid unnecessary drama
Everybody loves watching a good fight, but here’s a tip: Avoid unnecessary drama at all cost! People are more willing to argue with you when they’re behind a computer screen. Classy ladies shouldn’t be involved in fight. They should never even start a fight. If anything, we should be posting our favorite selfie on Instagram instead of wasting our time on a petty disagreement.
3.No cyber-bullying.
Cyber-bullying is bullying online. Overall, bullying is not cute and it isn’t nice. Why would you want to make someone cry in any situation especially online? We want people to like us on social media, not hate us. So the perfect situation would be to avoid bullying anyone online. Because honestly who likes bullies anyway?
4.Read your sentences before you post
Autocorrect is a pain, and writing your post over and over again gets so tiring. Before you press send, read your sentences once or even twice just to make sure you don’t seem like you forgot how to spell. Yes, we make mistakes and the best thing about social media is it gives you second chances. Take the time to read your post and you will forever be golden.
Remember these unspoken rules when you’re on social media and you will have so many friends and loyal followers. And remember:
