Twitter is in my head!

I don’t follow many people on Twitter, and recently I went through a timeline clean-up, so I have even fewer people I follow. Now, the question is: do they know that I’ve stopped following them? Why can’t I stop thinking about it?

I unfollowed for one reason or another. Sometimes friends post things about themselves that I’m not that interested in, or on the flip side they don’t post enough information about themselves for me to really feel like this is a proper medium to keep in touch. So now that they are not there, I’m supposed to feel relief, right? Wrong! They are still in my head asking me "Why did you unfollow me?" "Are we not friends anymore?" "Should I stop following you, too?"

The answers: I unfollowed you because I just didn’t want to read you anymore, we are still friends (if our friendship has issues, it’s probably not rooted on this particular event), and yes, you can stop following me if you would like. This is America!
