My MIL has just put in a request to follow me on Twitter (my account is locked). A few months ago she was on about being my friend on FB but I politely declined citing the fact that my account is not very active (true) and that I don't like it much (true, too).
Whilst I admire her for being so up to date with technology I cannot stand how she pores over other people's photos on FB, she really is incredibly nosy. She's friends with my nephew and niece and checks all their contacts, analyses all the pics, making comments etc She spends ages on that in the evenings.
Now she's just put in a request on Twitter, after finding out my niece/nephew follow me (I don't do FB with them). I use Twitter for work/with a few friends. I don't really see what she'll get out of following me but then don't want to offend her. I guess I resent the fact that she'll just be poring over every single of my contacts, making comments etc. It's what she does on other people's accounts, including my teenage nephew's FB party pics, silly pics, selfies etc... I'm quite a private person and feel this like a bit of an intrusion. Am I being mean?
