Yeah faceachebook is not a good place if you're feeling at all fragile. I only go on once every preston guild, just to say hi to a few family members with whom I'd otherwise have no contact, and from time to time it's been necessary for uni stuff. Other than that i avoid it like the plague - I go on maybe three or four times a year.
I have extended family members who've had the worst fucking fallouts over facebook. Really stupid, he said she said, nonsense, all played out on the world wide fucking web. Then next thing is there are actual bona fide family fucking feuds over someone unfriending somebody else. I swear to God.
At such times I am heartily glad I am on the other side of the Pennines from them and only an infrequent passerby on facebook.
