Cal_ Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Why do people write private (boring what time you finish work?) messages on people's walls so I have to read them. Then inexplicably read the comments too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I've just discovered that people fancy people on Facebook they have never met, A young girl I work with had been going on about having a huge crush on a guy, the whole obsession thing, as in he's gorgeous, he's so witty, he does the coolest things, etc, etc. I casually mentioned I was meeting him for a pint and she got totally over excited that I knew him, when I replied "oh, I thought you knew him?" it turned she had just seen him replying to Facebook posts and checked out his photos. That's just weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and when it's a celebrity who's shoved in your face by the media you can't help but notice them, when it's someone who probably lives a few streets from you it's different.

That and when it's a celebrity who's shoved in your face by the media you can't help but notice them, when it's someone who probably lives a few streets from you it's different. Why? If she's seen him a lot on social media, finds him physically attractive, sees he likes similar things, similar sense of humour etc, why would it be weird for her to fancy him? The weirdest part is her talking about it out loud in a way as if she knows him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyJudyJudy Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I find it can be good for a bit of banter and that's that. It isn't a helpline . I hate statuses like " not feelng well today with a little sad face" ...F%%% off who cares. It really can be misused by sad attention seeking people. I also don't understand why people whom I don't know want to add me?whats that all about. I try as best to have people I do know from real life but some people tend to just add anyone. I have had my fair few arguments about football and ive noticed a few hobbos have deleted me . I deleted one before and kinda regreted it as she was usually a nice person on it. I thought it was ridiculous to delete someone just due to football when there are a hell of a lot more offensive comments or statuses ive seen ( Britiain FIrst and BNP) postings are offensive and I ended up deleting a relative due to their postings. Anyway I re added the Hibbee woman as she is decent and apologised. She was fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah it's not weird at all. Just saying I'm losing doesn't make it so, sport. It's exactly the same as fancying a celeb. You conjure an image and become infatuated with someone based on how the information you get through social media. It's exactly the same. Might be weird because you're from an age that that wouldn't have been possible. But since everyone uploads their entire life to the internet, it's pretty easy to get the full picture of people, even if you've never met. How do you think dating sites work? You see someone's pictures, you find them attractive, you read their profile, get an idea of how they present themselves, read about their interests, hobbies etc, and eventually decide that you fancy them and make contact. Having never met. Facebook obviously isn't the right platform for that, but the process is exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomuzz Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I don't really see what's wrong with fancying someone that you may have on Facebook yet never have met. I would say it's a lot easier to get to know someone online and gauge their personality. It's a bit creepy if you continued to pursue a relationship if said person were not reciprocating your messages, but if the person responded well to you then I don't see what's wrong with a bit of flirting. Like bojak has said, you see a picture of a celebrity and think "god they are hot, I would" so what's the difference between someone on Facebook? Chances are they are probably better looking than a lot of these airbrushed celebs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
