Maintaining one account on Facebook can be considered a task
especially if you feel oblige to provide up to date information about your
whereabouts, opinions and your travel photos. This to some may seem like an unnecessary daunting
task that will not be beneficial to anyone but yourself, this is just a self
gratifying thing that you do via social media. But what can you say about people
who maintain a number of Facebook account?
Facebook was primarily conceived with the thought that it
will run under the rule of real names and real causes, this type of platform is
fundamental because it leads to a better understanding of respect, accountability
and trust.
So for a person to create a false account under a pretense
of a real person is somewhat intriguing.
Although not everyone is creating false accounts in
Facebook, some people may have two or more accounts with basically the same
persona but for different circles of connection. I have this friend who has a
Facebook account for her colleague and another one for her family. She came to that decision of having two
Facebook account knowing that there are things that are meant for her family to
enjoy but can be a little unfavorable if shown to her colleagues.
But if their goal is to primarily create different identities with those multiple Facebook account then their agenda will be very intriguing to some people. In the course of creating these fantastic fake people in social media these people already know the reason for creating these accounts. As they put in their name and complete address and photos, they are already plotting the usage of such an account in their mind.

These different personas can be used to lure men and women
to evoke emotional attachment and often
they can actually make someone fall deeply and intimately in love with these
fictional characters. For them it is a means of entertaining themselves and
knowing that they have that capability to break someone’s emotion when the
truth is revealed.
While some people does this because they seem to see the
importance of developing a great list of online followers who will like and
comment to almost all their posts and photos. They also feel the need to get a big
audience to further enhance their social media status. So, in essence it’s like they are having a conversation with themselves via a these fake accounts. I have personally
witnessed someone do this. Everybody in his circle knows that he has at least
five different accounts that he uses to get the conversation of his posts going
and he uses those accounts to “like” his own posts and photos too.
This may seem like a simple harmless self gratifying thing
but the reality is there is more to this than meets the eye, something psychological.
