Comments

Ever clicked on a video and told yourself not to scroll down to see the comments because it'll just sway your thoughts on the video itself? Well I have. Honestly, comments have really taught me how to become judgmental and negative. People can be really mean and it's just shocking to see how much hatred comes out from these people.

For example, I watch itsjudyslife on a monthly basis and I've seen people torment poor Benji in almost every video. He could've done the sweetest thing any guy could've done for his girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/husband and still get criticized for it. I mean I'm well aware noone is perfect and these people are vlogging everyday and I really mean.. EVERYday. You can't expect them to be in tip top shape every single day. I mean we all have our moody weeks and we aren't perfect human beings but yet these commenters expect Benji and Judy to become this perfect couple that doesn't even exist in the real world. They are already such a great couple and such a loving family but there are still commenters who find the tiniest things to criticize them about. I stopped looking at Youtube comments every since then because it just clouds my judgement and doesn't really give me space to have my own thoughts about it.

But on a brighter note, there are many other comments that are supportive and loving which of course, I adore. Comments have also taught me how to criticize but not to the point of being mean about it. It's always good to find a balance.
