Anyone have that 1 friend on FB

that constantly goes on and on about how happy they are with their partner. How wonderful their partner is, everything their partner does, posts tons and tons of pics of them together. Oh I love them so much!!!!!

 

Then a week later change their status to "single". Then they get tons of replies oh no so sorry, blah blah blah.

 

Then for weeks on end they go on about how lonely and sad they are and ask all their friends about going out to party to find someone new.

 

Then weeks after the change of status to "in a relationship".

 

the whole cycle begins again! It is driving me crazy. Im very close to defriending this person. Maybe Im just jealous. lol

Always Pondering

You could "unfollow" the person so that their news feed doesn't show up on the main page.

 

To your question though, no I haven't really. Then again I only use Facebook really for communicating with a certain few people and not so much reading stuff. I know the type of people you're talking about though. I don't know them personally, but a few of my friends do.

I have had people like that and inevitably they do break up shortly after their incessant posts of being happy and in love and then it's rinse and repeat. It's very strange to me and I wonder if they didn't learn their lesson the first 5 times. It's annoying to have that flooding your timeline, although admittedly sometimes it has served as entertainment for me :laugh:, but if it was really bothering me I'd hide that person's updates so I wouldn't be bombarded with the constant ebbs and flows of their love life. Actually my ex-boyfriend was this type of person, but oddly only became that way after we broke up, as when he and I dated he did not put our business on FB and neither did I, but after we broke up the series of women he dated after enjoyed the FB display and it was like a bad drama...I ended up deleting him because it was intolerable.

Under The Radar

I never understood the desire to post intimate details of one's life, especially romantic, to the social media world ...... particularly when it's negative about your SO. In my opinion, it's immature, insensitive, and at times downright disrespectful. I would never date someone who felt compelled to operate in that way ...... it's a one way ticket to drama central.

I agree. The relationship should not be part of social media. If you want to tell your man how awesome he is then tell him in person or call or text him. Not all the people on FB need to know and see it.

Yeah I know that kind, it gets really annoying really quickly, must be an attention thing.
