Facebook... What are you trying to do to me?

The following is a PERSONAL opinion.  I am not speaking for anyone else, and understand that not everyone is going to agree with me.  This is my blog, that's why I am writing what I think.  Don't make this into something that its not, and start being an asshole.  Its just an opinion.


Facebook!  My oh my how things have changed since I was going to high school.  And I have always told my friends how fricking grateful I am that there was no Facebook around when we were in high school.  I feel sorry for these kids that have to deal with just another form of being bullied.  But that's not really what I wanted to talk about today.  Although if you do see any of this stuff going on, I would hope the adults would do something about it.

What I want to talk about is the idiot adults on Facebook.  People that seriously can not control themselves.  I mean lets face it EVERYONE is so much cooler on Facebook.  People are the BEST parents on there, people have the RIGHT to judge you,(if you right about the following things... I will judge you.  I have no choice and for that I am sorry) people talk about stuff that I really just wish they would have kept to themselves, hell I'm sure people are pretending to be in a relationship when they are not.  Even I'm a bit cooler on Facebook.  Just because I say that I'm taking the girls to a movie one Sat does not mean that we have ever done that before or will ever be doing it again.  I am the BEST parent on Facebook.  If people only knew what really went on here.... although I do feel like I try to be honest than most people.  lol. 

These are a couple of things that I would like to see people stop doing.  Just for my sanity.  If you fall into one of these categories then you really need to re evaluate you Facebooking.  PLEASE for the sake of everyone involved. 

Please stop saying that parenting is fun all the time.  I love my kids and love being around them.  But for me it just doesn't seem healthy to be around your kids 24/7.  And no I am not trying to get into the debate of if stay at home moms are better or not.  For me, I would be the worst stay at home mom ever. Stop posting articles that say people with kids are better than people without kids.  People without kids are better than people with kids.  Peoples lives are just different.  Doesn't make one persons better than anyone else.  But when you constantly put it in peoples face.... its....well...its pretty annoying.   I could really care less if you have 10 kids, or 0.  Its my choice to have kids.... and its your choice to do whatever you want with your life.  But if I have to hear about your perfect kids and your perfect parenting skills anymore... you may just find yourself on the delete list.

Please do NOT use facebook to say something indirectly mean about someone so when they log on they will have to see that you are talking about them.  If you have something to say to someone, just say it.  Its mean.  Your an adult, use your words and talk to the person directly.  I have done this before, but then realized that its pretty stupid and pathetic. If you continue to do this... you may find yourself on the delete list.

PLEASE, and I mean PLEASE stop talking about your looser boyfriend/girlfriend.  This one is especially irritating for me.  I find it very hard not to comment on these posts, and what I comment would be really rude.  I just CAN NOT take this anymore.  If your boyfriend/girlfriend is a looser then break up with them.  Its just not right that everyone on your friends list has to hear about your looser relationship.  We get it, you don't like the person.  You have made it very clear that they make you made.  But why cant you get this?  I think you should take a look at all your posts and read them out loud. If you have to change your relationship status more than once a week to single, then you really need to think about what you are doing.  If you continue to have this behavior, you will probably find yourself on the delete list.

Last but NOT least.  Please stop saying how perfect your life is.  When you constantly say that you
are great, and you have a great life, and a great house, and a great husband/wife, and perfect kids, I start to wonder who are you trying to convince?  Me or you?  If you have to say every single day that you have the best life, then I'm pretty sure that you don't.  Sure the constant I love my husband/wife it totally fine.   But please stop going on and on about how perfect everything is.  Because we both know that just isn't true.   Continue... you guessed it DELETE!

Facebook is not a place to live out your high school dreams of being popular. Just be yourself.  You don't have to lie, and be mean to people to make them like you.  Facebook should be a place to share ideas and connect with friends.  Not a place to cut people down to make yourself look better. 

On a side note!
Diet is going good.  I can not lie to you guys, I did not make it this weekend.  I may have had a bit to much wine.  But I did go back yesterday, and I brought a Fareway bag this time.  After having people ask me if I bought a gym bag I think I will continue with the plastic bags.  Makes me think of the people supporting me!  And that makes me happy!
