Digital Friendships: The Illusion of Connection through TikTok Reposts

Um, does anybody else feel like they’re crazy because they feel like they know people off TikTok reposts? Because I am actually not okay in the head. Like, there is people that I follow on TikTok or that I’m like, friends with on TikTok, and purely because of the content that they repost, I’m like, we would be best friends if we met in real life. We would be best friends. Or like, I feel like I know them because of what they post or, like, what they repost. Or like, even these people that I was friends with when I was younger or that, like, I used to know when I was younger and in my head we’re still close, purely because I follow them on socials or like, I see their content that they’re reposting and I’m like, oh, that’s so funny. Like, I used to know that about them and all this kind of stuff. Like, it’s actually not okay. Cause, like, I’m now at the stage where if I saw certain people that I follow on TikTok or that I’m friends with, I feel like I could go off to them in real life and have a conversation with them. But then I’m like, they would probably think I’m so strange cause they’re like, I don’t know you. Like, we’ve never met. Um, but yeah. And I am spamming. I’m. I’m probably the worst for reposting. Like, people are probably like, take that girl’s phone away, From her. Um. But I just wanna know if I’m the only one that has that experience, because I actually feel like I’m going out of my mind, cause there’s so many people that I feel like I know, but I don’t.
