Does facebook make you nosey?
I've noticed a few people who have gone back to their maiden names on FB... they aren't people I talk to every day. Damn FB makes me so nosey... I hate it! Before FB, I would have probably not known they were even married since these people aren't actively in my life (friends from the past/ high school/ etc).
I just feel awful for being so curious about it... it also makes me sad. Anyway, I needed to get that out.
Re: Does facebook make you nosey?
It makes me more annoyed when someone is married, did change her name, and does not acknowledge it at all on FB.
But, yes, in general, I do find that FB gives me the need to know things about people who I don't really need to care about.
A woman I worked with has the same first and last name as some one from my high school - but is not that person and grew up not anywhere near my high school - somehow is friends with someone from my high school, who was friends with the person she is not.
Jane Smith 1 was friends with Emma Jones in HS
Jane Smith 2 is friends with Emma Jones now
Throws me off every time.
Yes! For example, this girl I knew in HS friended me in Fall 2009, and at the time had an infant and had just gotten married a couple weeks before, presumably to the baby daddy. Then she disappeared from FB for a few months and when she came back she was getting divorced. She always makes reference to something that happened on NYE, but I don't know what it is and I'm dying to know! Totally none of my business and like pp, I wouldn't even have known she was married if it weren't for FB (we weren't even friends in HS, just acquaintances)...but I'm still so curious. Similarly, my little sister's best HS friend got married a few months ago wearing complete Muslim women's clothing and posting about her faith a lot, then moved down to MD for a job, and now lists herself as single and posts photos of herself rocking tons of cleavage and stuff like that -- dying to know what happened there, too. Again, none of my business.
Stupid FB is like a soap opera you catch once every 6 months.
Me too! And I've noticed I have several Nesties who are mutual friends with people I know, btw. OR...I'll click on someone's profile who I'm not friends with (like if they commented on the same post as me or something) and then notice that I have a mutual friend with that person.
Haha, my thoughts exactly!
