Karala Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 ... but only to recover all the old data (messages, videos, photos...) and then delete the account permanently ^^ and, bottom line is: I HAVEN'T LOOKED AT MY EX'S WALL and I haven't even wanted to. I deactivated over a month ago, so he couldn't possibly have removed me from his list, because I wasn't there to remove. If I wanted to, I could search all about what he's been up to for the whole last month of total NC. But just the though of doing such a thing and thinking about how it would set me back is enough to make me sick. Please people, be proud of me because I am very proud of myself! For the first few months of separation, I would seek info about him like crazy, nothing could have stopped me. I can see now that I've come a long way, because self-preservation has become so much more of a priority. I've decided to delete my account permanently because 1) after a month and a half without Facebook, I can see how much better off I am without it and 2) I want to remove forever the possibility and temptation to ever log in again and see what my ex and/or his friends are up to. (Yeah, I could have just removed all and any of the mutual friends, but there would have been like 10 people left on my list so no point really.) F*CK FB! I'm a bit nervous just seeing the blue log-in page now *cringe* I can't way for the download procedure to be over and to be able to say GOOD-BYE FOREVER!! Link to post Share on other sites
RuinedLife Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Please people, be proud of me because I am very proud of myself!

I can see now that I've come a long way, because self-preservation has become so much more of a priority. Yay!! So proud of you Karala!! Here, have some bouncing bunnies to celebrate! :bunny::bunny: If I wanted to, I could search all about what he's been up to for the whole last month of total NC. But just the though of doing such a thing and thinking about how it would set me back is enough to make me sick. I can totally relate to that, just thinking about finding out that my ex has started seeing someone new or has a new girlfriend is enough to make me sick to my stomach. And I honestly have no idea what he's been doing these past few months, so he may well have moved on and found someone else, I just have no idea. But he has been completely ignoring me lately, so its quite possible as much as I HATE to think about it. And I really don't want to know what he's been doing, even though I am going to have to see him soon. Hopefully conversation will be kept to a minimum its just to get my stuff back really. Thats it. I know its going to set me back again, but at least then hopefully I can truly start moving on once that has been sorted. Link to post Share on other sites
amethyste Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Woo-hoo! I've deactivated my Fb account a couple of days ago, and I could not have been any prouder of myself - so I'm proud of you too. I plan to delete it in a couple of days. As I was saying in a previous post, Fb didn't bring me anything good - only stress & worries. It also got a little bit too manipulative lately (with all kind of new features & options they haven't mentioned anything about). When I'll have enough money, I'd like to buy some reaaaallly pwetty photo albums, print the photos I care about and write next to them every message from my friends that made me laugh.

silic0ntoad Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Excellent post. I did the same with mine. I could never understand the desire to keep connected via the interwebz, and got rid of it. I am glad I did. Link to post Share on other sites
Layzie89 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 It's scary how identical our stories are. Good job though, feels good doesn't it? I think the whole world would actually be better off without facebook, not just dumpees. I miss the days where if you wanted to talk to someone you'd have to pick up the phone and call them.

reimeivn Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I dont like facebook at all, not anymore. It hurts my feelings seeing so much of my so called mutual friends not being there for me. Sucks. I am on a fb diet though. Havent been on there for several days. Link to post Share on other sites
