Facebook is the single worst thing for relationships since cheating began!

Look at PI you will see a rake of threads about husbands "emotionally cheating" by talking to exes on FB.

But on another semi-related note, FB cyber is the new phone sex.

But basically if someone add's me on facebook and I actually know them IRL (or from boards), I will add them.

I don't have a GF, and don't want one!

i think the OP means do you have issues with moving on when a relationship breaks down and do you e-stalk them on facebook, and if you do, does the person you're with now realise that they could be next?

Yep, have a couple of "non serious" exes but the "serious exes" (all 2 of them) nope, not friends on facebook or real life.

My other half knows that they're facebook friends, but most of them are married so it's not a big deal.

Facebook friends with exes only where it ended amicably OR where we subsequently became friendly over time.

The ones I wouldn't spit on if they were on fire? Eh no....

Yes, we seem to have a habit of running into each other about every 2 years for a bit of "snu-snu". Usually in January-time for some strange reason. Try to keep it going but it usually breaks down after a few months.

(haha, just realised you meant "FaceBook", er I was talking about something entirely different!)

Why would you add an ex, when the entire reason Facebook exists is so that you can stalk them ??

I deleted her from my facebook, and now because her account is public, or because we're friends of friends, I'm not sure, I can still see it.

So I still check up on her now and again, though I wish I didn't. We only broke up when she went to France and some day I'm gonna see that she's engaged to some sweaty Francois with a beret and a pout and that is gonna be a stinger.

For your own sake, stop it. Just do it for yourself. You're only putting your life on hold for something that may not happen, you deserve to be happy.

You made me go all PI in AH

I do and I don't agree with this.

Do - If you don't feel capable of getting beyond it.

Don't - If you've just realised your diffences are too great, but you've always had the best laughs together.

Exes shouldn't mean the end of friendship unless the feelings are still there for either party. The reason I say that is because I love being in a strong friendship with a guy before the full on relationship, its too much to give two fingers to.

Imo, you can never sever a deep friendship, I never have. I hope I've put that across well, I'm still in touch with my exes. No, its not because I think a part of them will always belong to me sexually, its because we've always shared a laugh and theirs a friend that needs me as much as I need them. Sometimes they put your day thats heading down the bowl right back up. I won't appolgise for being friends with an ex for that reason.

Thats what real friends do imo.
