Making Fake Status Update in Facebook

i was actually never write fake status, i have experience about writing my dream, in my status, it sound like " i wish i wash rich like "susilo(name of my boss' partner)" i would do flying my helicopter around the city, anywhere i like"... and in the next day may boss called me angrily, i don't know why he was so angry about i included his partner name in my status, then i got penalty because of it. for now i rather not write any status in my facebook, and if i make status, sometime its fake, like your story, when i was had an interview, i said i was in government office updating new ID. sometime we could not express what we feel. even i really express what i feel.

I'm not a status updater at all :P I haven't seen much of these but I remember one me and my girlfriend seen a couple of days ago. we were at home and a friend of her posted on facebook that they we were out in a bar or something, trying probably to make jealous a gf or an ex-gf or something. I have to say that it made us have a good 5min laugh about it :P hehe

its weird status i really dislike the people like that if they did not want anybody knows about their activity,don`t tell it..simple?? last night i get a more weird status.. i had facebook friend which write her status like that " Oh God, please take my life now"... of course many of her friends is shocked and give respond i did not respond.i think she only want everybody take care about her...what a pity..

I sure have no need to make up lies on Facebook - no point in doing so! I don't know about everyone else, but I do have one friend whom I know intentionally glorifies stories just to make her in laws mad. She hates her sister in laws and mother in law (but I will have to say she has many reasons to), so she has used Facebook to dig into their nerves. Me personally, I think that's a bit immature . . . that's not the way I would handle the inlaws - I don't like playing mind games likes that. Anyway, she brags big time and has some of her other friends beef up their comments to help (admittedly I'm in on that too) - to make herself and her family look as excellent as possible. So knowing this, I don't take her Facebook posts "too" seriously.

I actually have a friend on facebook who is married. It's not a happy marriage and she truly can't stand her husband over 90% of the time. She has flat out told me she loves him as a father to their children but is not in love with him or love him as a lover. However when you go to her facebook page shes there trying to play 'happy families' almost bragging about her husband. One day I asked her "why are you always acting like that on facebook". Her reply, "because he is my husband", which to her means she isn't willing to answer it honestly with what I believe to be 'trying to be something she isnt'. It's getting to the point I barely speak to her now because ive always said if you can't be yourself, don't be anyone. She doesn't have to put all her 'dirty laundry' on facebook but she doesn't have to constantly act like shes in the best marriage ever. Then I have other people on my friends list doing things similar to what you said in the original post and im just like 'meh why bother lying and if you're that sick why are you on facebook'. I just brush over it as it gets boring to read. Most of my friends list lately though aren't really ones to update their status to constantly have what their doing lately though. So im grateful. Im not a big fan of liars though if they can't be honest or even be themselves why try to be anything. Sooner or later someone will say something to them about being full of it

I think there is a fine line between what you should be inviting the world to see on FB, and what you should keep to yourself. Many people on a daily basis cross this line without disregard and will find themselves in the ill effects of it all when they are caught in the lie later. Personally, I hardly ever update my status,or write things that don't matter much. I know there is always a way for someone to check out that information. Whether it be work, friends, or a stalker, all that information is available to everyone once you type it in.

I don't like that kind of facebooker, and personally I don't like those people that update their status based on their personal life or problems, like I have one friend on facebook, she always put a status that too personal or bullying someone or saying bad about someone, she's not mentioning the name but it's still offensive on whoever that is.

Yes I too see some of my friends putting up fake status . I never do that . I put up meaningful quotes or if I want to share something with my friends . Many deceit people by this way and I don't support this .

I'd rather not put any status update if it is a lie. It will reflect on my character if it is found out. I have a co-worker who sent messages through text that she met an accident. Of course, it wasn't true. It was a prank message because it was April Fool's Day. Some people took it seriously and even went to the nearest hospital inquiring about her safety. When they found out that the message was just a prank, imagine how angry/hurt/shocked those who really took the effort to check up on her.

me to doing the same thing and facebook is really helpful in this matters now facebook becomes the part of the life for every one who using this social network

this is a NO-NO for me. Facebook is an avenue to share what people have on their minds, to create friends and to reconnect with loved ones. Facebook is not a place which deceit prospers. Just saying :)
