Lovey dovey shite on facebook

Foster

Thinking of putting up a comment about how awesome your partner is for the 17th time today?

Yeah, i'm putting comments on that about how studies show that overly affectionate posts on social media are linked to serious relationship problems.

Gonna share that post that says all guys are only after one thing?

I'll point out how all women are manipulative, lying cows.

What out world of social media, i've been drinking a lot tonight and I ain't gonna stop till I pass out!

Did you get jilted?

Just don't bother with Facebook.

It makes you miserable: http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/facebook-social-media-make-unhappy-jealous-people-particularly-sad-copenhagen-university-study-a7490816.html

What makes me miserable are websites that bang on about how I use an adblocker.

Fuck off, would you be happy if the postman had to tell you at length about some scam dodgy porn site before you could get at your post? No.

But I love my wife. Why shouldn't I express it to the world?

Cheated on. Several times, I gather.

My ex's parents did that all the time and they're divorced, only she's with his younger brother now.

Mind you me and my ex didn't do that and were in an unhealthy co-dependent relationship.

Pretty much agree, A couple on my wife's FB were always giving it the biggun about "soul mates" and posting "share if you are married to the best man in the world" shite. anyway about 6 months ago she fucked an old flame and it all gone off big time.

On mothers day this year my mate told me that he got home from work and his girlfriend wouldn't speak to him, he finally found out that it was because he hadn't put anything on facebook about what a great mum she is and all her friends partners had, even though he'd given her a nice gift that morning. Fucking mental!

You shouldn't have deleted your duplicate post.  Shit like that needs saying twice!

I love @Foster he's a super duper lovey dovey sweetheart and I can't wait to give him a big ole man hug next time I see him. Grrrrr!

I came off Facebook a little while ago and I haven't missed it.
I never once felt the need to post anything on my wife's wall in the 6 years we've been together. If you need other people to see that then you've got problems. Just tell them to their face.

My wife's cousin posted something like "I love you " on her husband's profile last night, and the first thing my wife did was show me and say "I think they're having a bad time".

Smug bastards!!!

I don't have my relationship status public on FB, and I don't post statuses.

I'm too honest to lie on Facebook, my wife wouldn't like the ambiguity.

I don't use my real name on The Facebook, and I only access it via a separate browser with everything locked down. Probably I should run the browser in a virtual machine just to be safe, and via a proxy... hmm.

Tor browser ftw

Posts like that don't bother me - if they're too much of a regular occurrence then I click "don't show me posts from that person " .

The ones I dislike more are the "oh poor me, I'm in such a pain  and discomfort" ones followed by "u ok hun?" comments. Every. Fucking. Day.

You sound like a most sensible chap, Sporkers. (Quelle surprise). However, can one not be denounced on FB for using a fake name? An Aussie chap I know with a wonderful rockstar name was asked for a certified document by FB because they didn't believe him. He refused, I think he now has a new account under a normal-sounding fake name. On the other hand, my mate's sister's name one there has been the German version of RoastPiggieWithDumplingthingies for ages. I think you're only allowed to change it a fixed number of times, and it got stuck like that. "The wind'll change..."

The unfollow option is the best feature of facebook.
