Dear Ms. Medium Manners,
I’m not writing you today to be a pest but because I very much respect your advice column on polite internet society. I have a question that’s a little embarrassing today. I’m not quite sure if I’m making too much out of this situation or if I should be genuinely concerned. You see, I have a feeling that there’s a Medium user out there that might be “also highlighted stalking me.”
This is where this gets a little embarrassing because like I said earlier, I really don’t want to be a pest. Maybe I’m being a little too sensitive? It just seems like every time I log in to Medium I see that Bill DuBay Jr. ⚡️has highlighted the same passage as me. It’s like he’s going to my profile and looking at what I’ve highlighted and going behind me and highlighting it himself. I’m not sure why he’s doing this, but maybe so I’ll keep seeing his name in my notifications? Maybe it’s part of his plan to burn his name into my mind so that I’ll subconsciously be drawn to read all of his stories? He does have some good ones. A couple even made me cry, like this one about how the poor boy’s dad told him his novel was a piece of, uh, well never mind. Of course, there was this one about poop. I guess you could say he has quite a range.
Well, he may be a pretty okay writer, but I don’t know if I want to get into an also highlighted relationship with him. Doesn’t that mean I have to return the favor and highlight the same passages as him? I don’t know if that’s something I can commit to. Please tell me, Ms. Medium Manners, what should I do?
Sincerely,
Introverted Writer
