Should You FaceBook “Friend” Your Ex?
This keeps coming up. I'm sure there is a whole set of rules for the 20 and under set. (and BTW, what are they?)

But what if you are 30 or over? My first inclination is NO WAY. But then a great ex that I lived with and would consider a great friend popped up new on FaceBook.

Hmmmm.....

Should You "Friend" ex boyfriends/girlfriends?

(I'm not talking about your old prom date -- I'm FB friends with him, he's a great guy and that is that. I'm talking about hot and heavy long term past college relationships...the big important kind. )

Now, you know how I feel about the whole "Can Men and Women be Friends" thing.....NO. Men and Women cannot be just friends, because men will always think how you look naked. That is not what "friends" do, right???

But FaceBook friends is a little different. Right?

Now that you have answered. How would you feel if your current boyfriend, husband was FaceBook 'friends' with their ex? Hmmmm..... I'm not so thrilled with that myself. I mean, it could just be another person on the 'friend list' that you intermittently stalk. OR, are you conversing back and forth? And about what?

And the biggest question of all here - WHY?

WHY carry on even FaceBook/internet relationships with exes? Do you wanna look good to them? (see what you missed out on mister) Do you wanna know what you missed out on? (should I have held onto that one?). Do you just wanna add to your "number?" (not the bedpost one, the FaceBook number).

Lemme know what you think here....
