10:42 am
i always audra chava based on these accounts, these virtual images. they form opinions about others and build their relationships accordingly. on dollar could i come among teenagers? you can tell by the way, a girl dresses. it opposes she makes in her photos where she's from. and if you're going to get along with her, i hope all her they can visit as image to each person's photo to see who they are and what they're wearing for, which sneakers and the best get. what's that code? what brand is it matt to jo, any know? okay, we dress alike. so maybe we have common interests, or can you look at their stories and see, he's an activist that guy likes art. she things all to day and you actually build a personality around that person without really knowing them each that i should, that was with you think this person is so and so, so we could get along, but it's all based on appearance that the parent of it's still a balance to that, ma'am.
10:43 am
it is also targeted is always is ideally, can reach on social media that we become envious of all of our audit cultures, erotic alex hale and i see someone who is traveling who is with it, boyfriend who lives in a dream apartment who is close that i would like to have but can't necessarily have a might already have a feeling of inferiority only that she is better than me. and on top of that, she also has that thing. i don't even lushly pon patterson. it's not necessarily jealousy, more like envy and disappointment in yourself. love is a little bit of disappointment that you can't be that kind of personal. ah,
