I was once in your situation and my advice is stop caring . Seriously . I used to be that person who compared the number of Facebook likes and counted the number of friends I had compared to others . Get this in your head now . No one cares how many Facebook likes you have on your profile picture . If they ARE actually counting the number of likes then they are insecure themselves . So this means that you can change it or don ' t change it . NO ONE FUCKING CARES . If Facebook gives you so much stress , it ' s not worth it , honestly you should just delete it . If there ' s important FB contacts you need and can ' t delete your profile , that ' s fine delete the app and unbookmark the page . STOP checking and obsessing over Facebook if the only thing it does is make you insecure . Try this for at least a week and see how you feel .
