It is possibly one of the most powerful tools that the internet has yet provided us with and has already changed the way that people are interacting with each other on a day to day basis. However it is invasive and there are negative sides to it. As with many things, you get out of it what you put into it.
Use facebook yeh sure y not??? Just dont add her as a friend if u dont wanna see all the crap shes doin... I did have the exact same dilemma i joined facebook cos i also had other friends on there i just didnt add my ex again... We still msg each other through it i just dont see what she doing on a saturday night =D hope that helped
Or add her but limit what she can see. I did that with an ex that drove me off of it. Worked pretty well.
yes i agree with all the comments
Facebook is a great tool for information as well as being worthwhile.
Yes it can be very distracting but so can anything on the net.
Just be aware that there are over 50 privacy settings on Facebook and, depending on the selections you make, it can be simple or difficult for anyone to find you.
For example I have a profile name that's not my real surname and those looking for me can only see my profile and nothing else - no wall posts, no friends on my list and no photos or personal details. Those I do make friends with can also be grouped and given access to different areas. It's all up to you.
Cheers and good luck with it.
When my ex hubby and I broke up, I stayed on Facebook and just deleted and blocked him, and also changed my privacy settings so he and his family and friends could not view my profile on there.. It was that simple... That was 5 years ago and there's been no problems...
I have my privacy settings set so that if someone looks for me, they can only see my name and profile pic... They have to be a friend to see anything else (ie wall posts, other firends, photos etc)
Facebook is a worthwhile tool for many reasons.. but ultimately its up to you if you want to rejoin...
it is a very good tool if used properly. however too many people make up stories and tell lies for it to be good.
Thank you to all that helped me with my dilema :cheers:
I have rejoined Facebook, so if anybody is interested in adding me as a friend, feel free to PM me formy details :small-print:
