The introduction of social sites has really defined the term
socializing and networking. During my younger days it was about going to
parties, or visiting a friend or colleagues of your parents and that’s how you
network and make friends and the most common way was the educational
institution. It was cool then, because you actually met people, spending time
outdoors. Now with the introduction of Facebook; let’s go back a bit as far as I
can remember Hi5. Back in the school days it was a Hi5 rave but yet we still
took socializing outside. At the introduction of Facebook Gbam! Outdoor networking
went extinct. We all subscribed to it though (don’t be ashamed), yes it was a
faster way to connect with friends but at some point it evolved to meeting
random people from almost all corners of the world and works of life and the
ultimate question is ARE WE FRIENDS? I mean do I actually want to be your
friend.
In my opinion the social network is a cool way of getting
information, prying, and spying and the ultimate vice scamming not forgetting
wide range market for adult businesses. There are little truths about
personality on the social sites name it; twitter, Facebook, all dating sites
(for desperate peeps and emotional frauds and scammers). I have tweaked my age
many a times just to meet up to profile requirement or just for a chat (don’t judge).
My first introduction into social site was not that awful or
scary at first, I opened my Facebook account which seemed very alright till
now, the only ish is that you connect with people that you can’t really relate
too or even long-time friends that now has nothing in common with you (life
happened), but issokay. Then I went onto baddoo and woooooooo! It was a nightmare;
I had to fly out of that place. In my defence I opened it to actually meet new
people and maybe…..just maybe get dates more often (that’s the koko) but I was
been honest about myself and the way I related with other fellow users. An unforgettable
experience; when a gay dude tried to woo me, I stated I’m straight and he still
thought he could change my mind. After that experience I left baddoo never to
return (for my mind). Then I went on twitter when I got my first blackberry
phone and it has been going well until I found out that it was no different
from baddoo and Facebook, it had all the makings for every type of idea, but as
individuals you pick what you need and move on. Then I did go back to baddoo
(out of boredom), but this time I met someone who is now very close to my heart;
by the way that someone is a She (we are not dating). This second time was a
blessing (you could call it that), and then later I got bored again and it didn’t
really make so much sense to me anymore, once I got the idea that you never
take these sites seriously (need not say more), fine if you find something or
someone real (1 in 20). I deleted my account a second time (it would still come
calling).
Finally! Finally! Finally! I opened a baddoo account again
for a third time. They say the third time is always the charm and indeed it
was. I got chatting with a supposed chick named Dammy (fine die!!). Trying to
get to know her interests and get on her good side, she then
proposed that here
(baddoo) wasn’t a good platform (at this point she had stated her BB was stolen
and can’t download whatsapp messenger yimu). I then suggested the normal approach of call
me-call you, which ‘she’ obliged to by sending her digits (omo! Parol is on). That
was the end that day, until after like 3 days I just decided “hey what the heck”
let me just give my new friend in the making a buzz. RING! RING! Lo and behold
it was a dude’s voice at the end of the line trying seriously hard to sound
like the chic he posted up on his profile.
Ended it calmly, wouldn’t want to waste my energy and recharge
unit on insulting him, after all na my credit abi (talk your own)
