BEST DATING/RELATIONSHIP STORIES

• "once my boyfriend stopped using facebook and it threw the status of our relationship into complete turmoil."

• "after long interrogation my boyfriend confessed to having had a one night stand. he was dumb enough to tell me her name, so i contacted her on facebook. it turned out they had actually had a six week fling, that it was still on and she had no idea he was in a relationship. hell hath no fury like two women scorned."

• "My ex-boyfriend had deactivated his facebook account when we were together. A week later we broke up, and that night, I changed my status to single. I guess he reactivated his facebook account that night too, accused me of cheating on him when we were dating, and sent me an email threatening to kill me. All over a relationship status change."

• "i was about to "de friend" my ex boyfriend because i was sick of looking at pictures of him … and when i did i found out he had already defriended me - did i ever feel lame."

• "I hooked up with this guy who I kinda met on Facebook, kinda. Copious amounts of alcohol were involved. The next morning when I got on and checked my Facebook, I had a relationship detail request from him, saying we were "In a relationship." Most awkward "Deny request" ever."

• "I found out my boyfriend was cheating on me via a wall to wall with his best friend."

• "My ex-fiance found me on Facebook [so] I opened his profile and in his Relationship Status it had him "in a relationship" with the girl he denied cheating on me with."

• "Finding out that a couple that I've known for seven years (and they've dated all that time!) broke up with each other over facebook. Mind you– they are 27!!"

• "I chose to change my relationship status to nothing, so it just wouldn't show because I hadn't realized you could do that. The guy I was casually seeing freaked out and thought it meant I wanted a relationship. Boys are stupid."

• "I hooked up with one of my best friend's crush at an event she wasn't at, and she figured it out by studying everyone's photos from the party. Apparently he and I were in the background of some group shot, not even making out (yet) but looking at each other in a way that made her come to the (correct) conclusion that we were going home together. I didn't know whether to be terrified at what a stalker she was or impressed at her mad detective skills."

• "I looked up an ex-boyfriend from junior high on Facebook because I have long been haunted by the way I treated him back in the day. I wanted to apologize, you know? I had no expectations, and of course I don't know him anymore–this was 20 years ago–and I found out that in the intervening years, he's found Jesus. And not just a little bit. Favourite movies: Jesus movies. Favourite books: Jesus books. Worst of all, favourite bands: Christian rockers. Like, dozens of them. I have nothing against Christians or Christianity, but to me, if you don't like ANY bands that don't sing the praises of the Lord Jesus Christ, yeah. You're a weirdo. They're not good, okay? They're just not. On the plus side, his religious conversion = forgiveness for me. Huzzah!
