If you love your spouse/partner enough and you really want to make it work, then it shouldn’t be a problem for you to delete people from your facebook or delete your account completely.

After deleting my account, I asked my husband to delete his and he did so. I am not sure if he actually wanted to do it but he did it anyway because he saw how much it was bothering me.

That was 2 years ago and guess what?! We still keep in touch with all of our friends and family and we don’t have the added unwanted emotions that facebook was triggering.

I just had a fight with my girlfriend over Facebook.
let me state that i dont have my girlfriend on my Facebook because every time we have a sniff of a arguement she goes and deletes me so to fix this little problem i refuse to accept her friendship.

no girlfriend = no deletions.

the fight which started over one of my friends female friends adding me on facebook when i met her at a club while working security. this particular girl was there for a birthday party and was accompanied by my brother and about 8-9 friends that i know personally. there was a group photo that was uploaded the following day which included myself and the rest of the party.
I have not spoken to this girl since the party, even when we did speak, it was “hello Im (name) *shake hands* whats your name, are you having fun tonight?”

the particular club i was working at was at full capacity being 1000 patrons so there is not alot of time to sit down and chat while managing a crowd that big.

the following week i get abusive text messages whilst at work claiming that im a “cheating dog” and so on and so forth.

apparently she cannot trust me anymore, i made her feel like a worthless piece of s**t etc.

She claims she was hurt because i add “dirty f*****g sl**s” (she added me and i merely accepted) and not her even though i have given her my reason for refusing to accept her request to be friends.

i dont think im in the wrong and she is overreacting slightly.

A friend of mines wife left him and his daughter because of a man she met on Facebook and a year later she came running back. So people think twice before you RUIN your life! Incidently he did not take her back!

Colin I have had problems with my girlfriend on Facebook also! I wish they would just ban the site as it causes more problems than not! If I was you I would just start working out and make yourself more attractive. She will soon realize these guys are after only one thing. I asked my girlfriend when is the last time these guys “SO CALLED FRIENDS ” bought her flowers-helped her buy a house- fed her cats or all the other things I do. I am starting to realize maybe I am not what she wants! All her Facebook friends think I am a jealous fool but if it happened to them I am sure it would be a different story! Good Luck

I was jealous at first but only because my girlfriend of 20 years was sending messages to some old guy friend calling him sweetheart and I think it was more due to her not giving me any time about anything. I am not really crazy about Facebook but I don’t keep her off of it. While her friends and her spend their lives on Facebook I work out to look better!

A lot of social media’s are now emerging in the world of web. Most common and popular is facebook which you can meet new friends or keep in touch with your friends. Jealousy happens to a partner maybe because accepting friend request from a stranger which he/she thinks twice better than him/her. There is no way to feel like that as long as the relationship sticks together and trust,honestly, and love are still in the atmosphere.Thanks for the great article!!

HELP! I NEED ADVICE!

My boyfriend (going out almost 2 yrs)wants me to add him on facebook. I would have no problem with that.. but… he is EXTREMELY controlling and jealous! I have gotten close to ending it with him more times than i can count because he so easily gets into a violent rage! it could take anything as small as walking through a mall and a guy checking me out. it’s frightening!

I have always been true to him, I have never done anything to put a wedge between us concerning trust or loyalty. i swear on it!

I am worried about him seeing any pictures that for what ever reason he could lose it! it could be a comment someone has left or it could be i had some cleavage (im only a bcup cant be much!)but whatever it is i have a feeling he will put our relationship on the line to try and capture that last bit of control.

What do i do??
I would rather not be dating someone who is so consumed with jealousy, immaturity, and insecurity. But i love him and i dont want to break up with him. I feel like if he gets mad at me for anything on there i will be forced to end it for good. Because any normal adult who sees it would see nothing wrong with any of it. I DONT WANT TO BREAK UP BECAUSE OF FACEBOOK. its just so stupid!

what should i do?

i think that if your worried about your gf/bf disrespecting you whether its facebook or in real life your not jealous.. if you got friends introduce them to your spouse.. if you have ex’s on ya page that still talking about yester year delete em.. facebook has turned people even more narcissistic. adults should know how to act regardless of the medium.. if ya love one is checking ya page who cares if you have nothing to hide..if you bump into a co-worker while out a bar let be known and if its still a problem thats out of your control. i don’t care who the person or website is you have to manage your morals and behavior. because someone of accuse you of being something it doesn’t mean you have to live down to the label!

Is it wrong to want to ask my husband to quit using facebook in order to avoid all of this crap.
I find it very bothersome when women I have never met friend him. I wonder…have they met, or have they hung out? I would like to think that he would stop using it for me, but I actually believe this would cause a HUGE fight.
What is right?
