9 Redditors Share What It's Like To Be Friends With An Influencer

Because of constant oversharing on the part of influencers, we get an idea of what it's like to be a social media influencer. Sometimes, a single picture can cause a huge backlash! However, have you ever wondered what it's like to be friends with an influencer? These Redditors reveal what a friendship with a vlogger/blogger/content creator can be like - it doesn't sound great. Some influencers' need to constantly create content seems a bit annoying...

#1 All That Glitters is not Gold

"Pretty mundane, honestly. My friend is conventionally attractive, and if you look at her social media, you'd think she were a supermodel millionaire who goes on tons of trips.

She's actually chronically unemployed, and has an income of less than 10k/yr. Her boyfriend makes about $60k/yr which is enough to afford them a very nice 3 1/2 bedroom apartment, and she has tons of props she uses to make each room look different from day to day so it seems like she's always in a new, exotic place. They take two trips a year to fun, tropical places, in which she takes many photos, and posts them as different places throughout the year.

She's a very kind, considerate, sparkling personality, but whenever we hang out, I tend to be a shoulder to cry on as she laments about her lack of success in life. It's quite sad, honestly. But with her creativity and personality, I think she'll achieve her dreams eventually."
