Author Surf Rider Posted November 5, 2011 Author Posted November 5, 2011 hi! I deleted Facebook for a very similar reason, along with the fact I was sat with my bf. (x now) and he got a message from a girl on his wall. we were in the pub, he freaked by this. I said don't worry just reply- couldn't understand why he'd got so funny about it, until it dawned on me she'd obviously been inboxing him & he didn't want me to know. anyway from there the evening went down hill. he suddenly went from declaring his love to hiding his phone, saying he felt like going home and leaving me literally stood there. he never goes home alone, long story short that ended hes now living with the girl. from that moment I decided I'd rather not be part of Facebook if that's what it creates, I'm pretty sensitive so it drives me crazy seeing photos etc anyway but much more than that I'd rather just take people at face value. I feel much better for it, no he wrote this, she wrote that dragging me down. in a way I feel much more free! also I went through my friends list before I did and counted the people I'd seen in the street but not spoken to, there were alot- just proves how fake it all is, they know what I had for breakfast but dont say hello. I'd rather a real friendship thank you! there is a bit of time where you feel really cut off but after a while you fill this and wonder why you ever spent so much time using it! I am so glad to be out of it, I know that if boyfriends use it it will really put me off, preferring to speak to someone in the virtual world than someone sat right next to you is crazy! when looking back I bet you'd never hear friends say "remember that great conversation we had on facebook' it's wasted time! That sounds exactly like my ex g/f. Her ex had been inboxing her for 5 days and she didn't tell me until the last day he f/b her. That really ticked me off 1
eleanorhurting Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 I dont have facebook either!!!! People think I'm some sort of weird person. But now I have a twitter account. But I only follow celebrities and like 5 of my closest friends.
skyle Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 I've just deactivated my facebook. Saw my ex talking about going to fireworks with some guy that she is close with (possibly why we split up) and that really just hurt me. I'm doing NC and it's so difficult after seeing that because this time last year I was with her family and her doing fireworks on her street. Shows how much someone cares about you really...ah well sticking with NC and no facebook or anything.

That really ticked me off Same thing happened to me, that's mainly how I know about everything that went on. I don't want to deactivate because I have friends in a lot of different places I would never keep up with otherwise, but I actually dream of a FB-free relationship next round:love:. 1

But the truth is i have lived a better life without fb and i healed a lot better without it. Not that facebook is bad, but not knowing what's going on in her life and vice versa has made me feel better and i always say do what makes you feel better
