Hey I’m just going to throw it out there - it’s weird and kinda creepy for an adult to follow a non-relative teenager on social media for just about any reason.
I always ask before I send an invite, and it's on my business account - not a personal account.
Plus every once in a while I have one where we get to know each other quite well and it's fun to see where their lives take them.
I know of women photographers that literally go on trips with their "senior models," so I think me following them on social media is pretty tame in comparison.
I disagree. It can certainly be creepy but cross generational friendships are not inherently creepy or bad. Meeting people where they socialize is a key part of friendship.
