When Your Embarrassing Ex Tries to Friend You on Facebook

Published by baerbelleksa at 4:10 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Everyone - or at least, those of us who will admit it - has an embarrassing ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend that they’d rather not let their friends and current girlfriend and/or boyfriend become acquainted with.  This is generally easy enough to avoid when said ex lives out of state in a small town and you now live in a large city - or at least, it was, before the advent of social networking websites like Facebook.  Sure, you’ve been a member of Facebook for years, and your ex doesn’t use a computer because he works in a stock room or a factory all day when he’s actually employed, so you figured you were safe.  Wrong.  Suddenly, his profile appears on your Newsfeed, informing you blithely that people you went to high school with are now befriending him.  Also, his profile picture consists of a pick-up truck bed full of dead deer that he presumably shot.It’s best to just try and ignore this, and certainly don’t send him a Friend Request yourself.  If you do, your friends in the city will probably put two and two together, and you’ll have an awful lot of explaining to do while they laugh hysterically.
