This is the first of a 3-part collaboration between Jennica Mae & OMGitsfirefoxx that focuses on the expectations we have grown to have on many platforms. This piece hones in on one of the earliest ways of being validated. We're all guilty of checking the likes a post is getting and feeling bad when it's not enough. This subject may feel vapid to admit that it hurts, and this serves as a step in the right direction of reducing the shame we feel from not getting this expected toxic validation.
