Sometimes you have to let a connection go. They might start dragging you down with crazy remarks. They could fill your feed with a bunch of crazy crap that barely interests you. They could just be boring. Whatever the reason, it’s ok to drop them.
This is why I think my cat Chibi would be better at online relationships than most of us. When she wants to be adorable and wants to have fun, she lets me know. When she needs something from me, she lets me know that too (occasionally by pooping on the rug). And when she isn’t interested in me or anything, when she leaves me alone and doesn’t bother me.
If she was on Twitter, she’d be the perfect person to follow, and having her follow you would be an honor. She’d only tweet relevant stuff, like how to be cute or what bugs she ate that day and which tasted the best. She’d only follow the things that interested her, and as soon as they stopped interesting her she’d drop them.
And if they tried to hang on too long, well, you can see what would happen…
