What is the difference between following and conforming?
I'm looking for a deep philosophical answer. Lol.
The best I can come up with is that conforming is when you permanently adjust your life around something (say the speed limit is changed form 45 to 35, you conform to the new), and following is a temporary adjustment when someone asks you to do something (like if someone literally says come follow me).

If if you are a follower you lack leadership tenancies, you do what other people tell you to do.
If you tend to conform to what society expects, you adapt your behavior to current trends, and act in a way that you think you are expected to act.
