Yes, it is a most unfortunate situation. I have to tag them in my posts, and maybe, just maybe, they will come around, read, and actually like my posts.
Because if they love me, it goes without saying they should like my posts. Right?
I tried to think of reasons why my siblings aren't liking my posts.
1.If they like my book posts, they'll be obligated to read my books.
2.I am always posting about what I ate.
3.They've never forgiven me for being the youngest -- and thus the favorite child.
4.They actually don't get on Facebook.
What?!! Who actually doesn't get on Facebook? I'm on there, like, 24/7. And believe me, my thumb goes numb after a while, liking posts. And not just liking, but a more nuanced deliberation, "This deserves a heart. This one is a wow. Oh, my, sad face for sure."
I just came up with the best revenge. I have a sister-in-law who likes my posts consistently. I post something and a minute later, bam, she likes it already. I will write a post touting her as "Best sister who likes my posts." And then tag my siblings in the comments.
And if they don't "like" it, then, well, that just proves my point.
Meanwhile, if you'll please excuse me, FB calls. I've got some liking to do.
