FRAP

acronym


Fear of a Recently Added Person.

It happens sometimes that we add someone and we think that now that this person sees our profile, posting will never be the same. It can be anyone, a person that you admire, a childhood friend, a crush or your family member. In any case it is a person whose opinion matters to you or who has some kind of influence. Now every time you post you are more self-conscious about that person than all the other followers. After some time the person usually blends with other people and the fear and excitement goes away.

“If you don’t have a FRAP because of your new boyfriend you’re not really in love”

“The biggest FRAP I ever had was because of Angela. Now we are married and have a child.”

“My last FRAP was so intense that I stopped posting at all for around a month”
