RMD’s Candid Advice On Social Media Love Will Touch You

3 Min Read

Popular actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo has advised against seeking true love on social media.

In a thought-provoking Instagram post, he said: “If I wasn ’t the six foot and some more , successful , famous , somewhat good – looking RMD , will you still love me ? If not for the level of fame I have achieved and the success tied to my brand , will you still scream my name ? If I was a middle – aged , gray – bearded , emaciated applicant hoping to be your driver, will you give me a second look ?

“ If I was a half – literate Warri boy who said ‘ Nyam ’ instead of ‘ yam , ’ “ Shorsh” instead of ‘ church’ and “I chock” instead of “ I was shocked , ” will you not mock and laugh at my speech ? If I as RMD , fell on hard times, lost my fame and fortune, became helpless and hopeless , will you show any sympathy ?

“ I ask , not because I do not know the answers but so that he that has ears will hear and hopefully learn a thing or maybe, two . In your desire to be loved and accepted , it is important to ask ourselves how much of the love and admiration thrown at you are genuine . Know that many do not love you , they love the idea of you . It is the same people who sing your praises when you ’ re up , that tear you apart when you stumble , and stomp on you when you fall.

“Don’t let the number of followers you have , the likes and comments on your pictures or the hype fool you , one wrong move and the vultures will swoop down to feast . This is why I appreciate the love but stay super selective when it comes to letting people in. I keep my circle small, in fact , very small.

“ I keep my private life , private and thank God for the grace to also keep my public life private . Don ’ t put yourself out there and start crying foul when it blows up in your face and hey , stop trying to sit with the cool kids , you are the cool kid !!! Know this and elevate above the clique mentality. ”
