fb posts from one spouse to the other
there is this girl i'm fb friends with and she write shit like this all the time on her H's wall. if I wanted to say something like this to my H I would just tell him, not write it on his wall.....am I off base on this? its odd right?
Bransen & I are so proud of you for quitting smoking. And we support you 100%, thank you for making an attempt.. So far so good!! I love you xox
Before we got together you told me you felt that we wanted the same things in life, and to this day I believe that was the honest truth. Bransen wasn't planned but he has made both of our dreams come true and I couldn't be happier. I love you So much thank you for everything you do for me. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us. You are the love of my life and best friend and not to many people can have those qualities in somebody. I love you, forever your amazing

I'm guessing she's doing it so that people can see how "amazing" they are together.
Every one only says the good about their partner on the Internet but obviously never the bad.
I don't know if that makes any sense. Lol.
You aren't off base with this. We have friends like this too, and it annoys the crap out of me.
I don't remember where I read it, but they did a study that said the couples who post how great their relationship is all over social media, are actually the ones that struggle the most.

DH and I closed our FBs as soon as we saw we started having problems. Our relationship is pretty freaking awesome but we obviously have problems too. Just like any other couple, we yell we say mean stuff then we take it back. Lol.
I posted once on DH's wall about how proud I was of him for completing his certificate and getting an awesome job but I did it specifically to "tell" other people of his accomplishments.

But yes, I can see how what she says would get annoying.
What do I really hate on FB? The friggin' selfies. It's like, get over yourself. Doesn't help when 34 people 'like' the picture or comment how beautiful the person is. Ugh.

More like, "Happy 4th anniversary, sweetheart! I love you and can't wait for this next chapter in our life in 2014 (in reference to LO)."
The one year I didn't post "Happy Birthday" to him, his family actually called me out on it. Because they are a bunch of weirdos and obviously I didn't say it to him face to face if it's not on FB
I have a friend who ALWAYS posts stuff about her son. I mean she posts conversations they have, when he poops etc. She also posts when she buys stuff and gets a real good deal on it. Blah!!
I'm so glad I don't have to see that anymore. My mom has her as a friend and always bitches about how annoying it is. Lol.

One of dh's friends posts stuff like that all the time. Frickin martyr. The day she defriended me was amazing. Lol
Lol. My mom goes "ugh, your friend is annoying. She posts stuff she gets at really good deals and it's usually really ugly!".
I get random texts saying, "I got 3 shirts, a dress and some flats for $10". I'm like wow great deal but I really don't care. I think I might be a bad friend. Lol
If I want to tell my husband I love him, I tell him. If I have anything to say to him when he's not home, love or otherwise, I text or call him.
FB walls are ridiculous anyway. Mine is private so if anyone were to write on it no one can see it but me. IMO Social media should be for catching up with old friends that you don't see often or family out of town. It's not a diary.
