Since I have received very good feedback from family and friends so I think I can earn something on it

Has instagram paid you anything since you have used it?

Unfortunately, I have noticed that I do not get anything like the same response here as on Instagram.

This seems like a "whale-fishing" post, and I quickly browsed through your other ones and noticed many were in the same style. Maybe correct that and your posts might do better. People here aren't idiots, they can tell someones true intentions.

That said, even on instagram you don't get many followers/comments/likes when you are new to it. Be active here, make friends and followers and the rewards will come in time. Don't force them the same way your boyfriend has.
