Why would you just want to remind yourself and others of a relationship that didn’t work out?
I Would not. I simply don’t understand the mentality of airing this kind of stuff to the world.
But if I were to:
Had a past relationship with an ex
Had a past relationship with my right hand and now my left hand is jealous
It’s just silly to do this.
Another point: unwanted people, that might be looking for you or your ex and did not know each of yours last name, could associate you and your ex, with this information.
From a safety standpoint, I would leave it alone.
I wouldn’t I think of most of my exes that I’m friends with on FB as FRIENDS. If they are just exes, they are not my friends and I don’t associate with them on FB.
I don’t elaborate on my friendship status with people who are not related to me. I don’t say “Former BFF from middle school” and I think ex boyfriend is just TMI for facebook friends.
Friends are friends no matter what the status. I do put them in categories so I can send messages to groups. (Like nobody but my summer camp friends would care that they moved our summer camp from the old place to a new camp across the State..)
Well, I don’t put much of anything on Facebook. I prefer to control information personally, not in any rule-based way. Facebook takes too much work. I’d never add this kind of information. And if I did, it would just be for me since I wouldn’t share it with anyone.
Now if I had facebook since I was in college—maybe I’d be able to remember all the relationships I’d had.
Would there be a point to that?
I don’t even have my current relationship status filled in on facebook. Not something I can commit to. (My own silly ironic joke.)
How about everyone list their past sexual partners and the VD’s they have been treated for as a result. That seems like it would be at least of some practical use.
No. But welcome to fluther.
Why not a list of people under the heading “Women I have fucked.”?
LMAO!!! @filmfann
“Past relationship with my ex-wife, that materialistic, nagging, money-grabbing, b***ch!”
LOL!
My facebook is private. I only add very close friends and family so everyone on my Facebook knows who my ex is.
Beside it’s no ones business, imo.
Wait a minute! Doesn’t Google take care of all this already? Isn’t that how they target their ads?
I don’t even put my current relationship status on FB.
Oh jeeez. No.
I try to forget about those guys.
@AshLeigh
The list is long, but distinguished, eh? LOL!
@CaptainHarley Haha.
It’s a short list, filled with all of my favorite mistakes.
Ick! I don’t even have a picture of my ex husband on my FB!!
I would not put my spouse’s name on there. It’s Facebook, not reality.
