People often live fake lives on social media platforms due to societal pressures, a desire for validation, and fear of missing out (FOMO). The curated nature of social media encourages individuals to showcase only the highlights of their lives, leading to a distorted portrayal of reality. Seeking approval and admiration, people embellish their achievements and selectively share moments, creating an illusion of perfection. Fear of judgment or inadequacy drives them to present an idealized version of themselves. However, this façade can lead to feelings of insecurity and disconnection, as genuine human connection becomes overshadowed by superficiality and comparison.
