crazy people on FB
Okay so there's this lady who is friends with my MIL. I've only met her once and that was when she (literally) drove her car up into my yard to my front porch a couple years ago and began honking her horn looking for my MIL. I had never met her in my life before that day and haven't seen her since.
A couple months ago, I made my FB page private so that you could only see it if you are a friend. As soon as I made it private, I recieved a message from the same lady asking why I made my profile private and that she was upset because she couldn't read about my "fun life". I felt kinda bad, so I added her as a friend after I realized who it was. Keep in mind that I have only met this lady ONCE. She messaged me on a daily basis asking me to clarify certain posts, asking about my MIL, asking very personal questions, and even apologizing profusely for things that I had no idea what she was referring to. She has been calling my MIL on a daily basis and telling her every single thing I post or do on FB. My MIL called me last night to tell me not to post about a certain subject pertaining to her personal life on FB (which I wouldn't anyway) because this lady would find out and get jealous and very upset.
To avoid the problem altogether, I deleted her as a friend. Seriously, I find it strange that she's that involved in my FB, that she's relaying all information to my MIL (who I'm not close to anyway), and my MIL seems to think she's as crazy as I do since she doesn't want her to know certain things.
The lady just messaged me as soon as I deleted her asking where I went and why she couldn't see my page. I guess she realized what I did because she messaged me AGAIN telling me how hurt she is that I just "threw away such a precious friendship" and put a status update on her wall including my full name and how much of a horrible person I was for deleting her.
WTF??! It's FACEBOOK. It's not that deep. What is with all these crazy people?!
Re: crazy people on FB
Thats what I was going to say.
I had someone message me when I defriended them, basically saying the same thing. And I told them I was sorry they could stalk me anymore, they'd have to find someone new, and that we weren't friends IRL anymore, so why would we be on fb? He never responded. I think he got the picture. But, I'm also a blunt b*tch. Soooo... yeeeah. I'll send her a msg if you'd like? haha

haha I already did the exact same thing. You and I think so much alike, my dear. I told her she took FB waaay too seriously and that since I didn't know her IRL there was no reason to be friends on FB. I told her that we have a mutual friend in my MIL and that's about it. Oh she lost it then. She told me then that my MIL was right, I was nothing but trouble, and that she hopes one day Rusty wakes up and is finally able to get free of my hooks and tangles and teasing ways, then he would be much happier.
Seriously, lady, you don't even know me.
