Influencers. Whether you like them or not, they’re here to stay, and they’re all around us. I feel like everyone is an influencer nowadays. I’m surrounded by niche internet micro-celebrities and I hate it. Everyone has a brand, everyone has a take, and everyone is taking pictures all the time. 

But, I would never discourage my friend, let alone a significant other, from chasing their dreams. If you want to be an Instagram star, go for it. I’ll be there holding your ring light. Especially if you want to be a food influencer. I love trying new restaurants and new foods, and I’d be honored if you’d take me with you. And maybe I’ll get something for free. The boyfriend of a food influencer had the same idea but unfortunately couldn’t quell his haterade enough to pull it off. If you’re going to be a hater, go on and hate, but realize it has consequences!
