I had promised to be witty and write something comedic, but my creative juices just refused to flow, so instead, I bring you this.
Musings on facebook:
1. At what point do you feel the need to delete wall posts where you asked someone out? After the romance when you've both moved on? After said person moves away? After you start dating someone else? After you get married? Is it expected or are you simply being obsessive?
2. At what point does untagging yourself in pictures become excessive? When you delete only the awkward pictures of you from high school that that one friend thought just had to be shared? When you delete those pictures of your "chubby" phase in college? When you specifically go through and delete all pictures involving you and certain individuals so that other certain individuals don't see those images and question you on them? When you've been tagged in 30 pictures of an album, but only 3 tags remain in place?
3. At what point is it acceptable to add an ex as a friend? Is it always awkward? Did they have to be the one to break it off? If you weren't technically dating, but rather significantly flirting do the same restrictions apply? Does periodically checking said ex's profile to see if they have dropped out of school/are involved with someone/still living with their parents count as stalking?
The only answers I have been able to come up with are the following--
G-mail holds the only evidence of a certain Texan asking me out through the medium of wall posts.
Some people seem to have a couple months of conveniently located gaps in their profiles.
What was I thinking when I was a teenager? Can I legitimately blame all that on boredom?
