has facebook ever ruined a close relationship of yours?

Social media does more harm than good. I truly believe that.

Can I retweet that?

[Vitacura]

Myspace, Facebook, Twitter? Too easy to make your info public and information you may later regret posting cannot be undone once others see it..

Never had an FB account. I ruin relationships quite well on my own.

Me either. I can't stand the idea of having one.

We're so alike Luppers. We should make sex sometime.

Cool, it's a date!

This is so safe since our conversation isn't happening in social media!

It's as safe as not wearing a condom with me.

Of course when someone like Nkc says something like that on the internet it's fine but when I do it I get arrested by police, put on the registered sex offender list, and can't be within 250 feet of any school or playground.

Aww... Well I just like kids that someone else pays for. We're fine.

Are you sure you're saying it the safe way?
And what's wrong with nck (now I write it that way just to fuck with him)?

I've spent a pretty good amount of time on Facebook and never had an issue with me personally, however my mom had a big-time bitch fight with my brother's wife a while back. Short story is the wife has an obsession with Disneyland and posted a photo of a tree that looked like Micky and my mom made some comment about it that was taken as sarcasm.
So, it got all heated and the wife didn't want my mom around....my brother didn't want to take a side but leaned towards the wife which made things worse. Anyways, they speak but never really recovered.
Facebook, used correctly has a lot of value. As long as you keep politics, religion and critical or ill advised comments out you will be ok.
The difference between FB and forums really is the fact that most of the people you have as friends on FB are actually people that you associate with or have been friends with in the past.
And then there are guys like a friend of mine from work who hooked up with a girl from work (also on FB) at a party and got all sloppy. Those pics led to awkward!!

My mother keeps posting her extremely fat puppy's pictures. My husband now has his phone locked since I really wanted to tell her to take the fucking dog for a walk. Now I'm mad at the hubby because he's protecting my mom.

Your just asking for it. You can't go on FB on a computer? Then you will have a story to tell us.

Lol!

He has his, I have mine and we never use each others computers. As far as I know, he could have 10000 plus posts on an audi forum. We don't even touch each others phones if not as a last resource.

There are 12 laptops/ computers in our possession and about a million phones and a few tablets. The only thing we share is our kids browser history and their email and textings. Those we both screen daily.

My mother knows nothing about dogs, though she lived with me and my dad for 20 years. She is just hopeless and I feel sorry for the puppy but I rather not be in contact with her at all. At any times or ways.

I have around 300 friends on FB, and about 2,500 linkedin contacts. This likely reveals my age to within 6 mos. Anyone born around 7/20/94 would have around 5,500 FB friends, and maybe 30,000 linkedin contacts. S*** to get old.

btw I just saw a great job opportunity on career builder (so born before 1980 if anyone says that)

Those two, in that order, are the quickest way I unfriend\unfollow someone. I don't post a damn thing on FB. Every once in a while I'll comment on a friend's post if it's a light and casual joke.

No because my wife doesn't know my password

And she or any of her friends are not your FB friend...so they can't check those strip club shots.

Rule #1 of strip club usage is 10 second snap chat only
