Hi. I have a friend of mine who keeps posting about her relationship with his boyfriend. If their relationship is on the rocks, she will change her status into SINGLE and post her feelings towards it. And then few weeks or worst even days after that, they will be okay again and post sweet thought of what she and his boyfriend had. And then after that, they will break up again because of a minor/major fight and then the cycle goes on. It happened like four times already and it really pisses me off. I'm not really her friend but I think whatever she and his boyfriend has must just be kept to themselves, specially when it comes to break up thingy. Don't you think mylotters? She is way to much expressive of her emotions that tend to fool her fb friends. And now they are okay again. Sometimes, I just hide her post in my new feeds to be outdated from what happened in her life.
I think the happenings in their relationship, specially the bad ones must be kept to themselves. The guy is like that too. Hayyst :( Nothing. I'm just pissed off. Haha. :D What are your thought about this?

Hi friend, some persons are in this sort, they are very expressive in fb and always share all the things in their fb account. This kind of persons frequently change their relationship based on their mood, don't give more importance to their activities. We can't change them

Yes, that's right. We can't really change them. :) yes, I think I don't really have to pay attention to what kind of relationship she have with her boyfriend. Wahh. They are okay now again. I think they broke 5 times for few months. And now they are okay again. And sometimes, I felt that whenever she posts something on her fb account, the blame is all in the man which is her boyfriend.

Being with friends enjoying facebook is fine but its worst when entering each other business then it will start an arguments.We should respect each other privacy and business so it won't make mess.
Happy mylotting!

I agree it's annoying to see/read such kind of post.
But what can we do, everyone is free to express their feeling.
I just ignore those post anyway.

I understand what you are saying. I mean, who would want an update on her love life anyway? Unless she is a celebrity, right?

I think she's a celebrity because she acts like one. :D. Nothing, I'm just pissed off with some of her post. I myself give importance to my own relationship and I don't post too much everytime my boyfriend and I have a fight. We just keep it to ourselves. We don't have to keep other people posted right??. :) But anyways, people are not all the same. Thanks

Hi fatlex,
So your friend's relationship with her boyfriend is an OPENBOOK!...duh! this shows that she is still very immature, no wonder she and her boyfriend fight all the time. I also have a friend like that but I no longer keep in touch with her because like you, I also get pissed off by people who are just wayyy too expressive of their feelings, all they like to talk about is ME, ME, ME..you know those kind of people who you can easily call as narcissist.
They cannot stand it if they don't talk about themselves, cannot bear if they do not get any attention whenever they update their status, always seeking to show off everything they have and everything they suffer. No, thanks, I don't want to have friends like that anymore. Just cannot stand this type of people.

You are so right. I am also so pissed off with her immature acts.Wew!!! Sometimes, I want to unfriend her but I don't want her to notice that. I think she is just getting other people's sympathy. Actually, we are not really close. :) She is just a friend whom I met through my boyfriend. Wahh.. Now that they are okay, I hope she won't do that anymore. Even my boyfriend is pissed off with her posting acts. I think people are tired of her dramas in life. Thanks for sharing. I think I just have to tell her to use mylot. :D

Well, some people just can't help airing everything that's going on in their lives on Facebook. And then when they receive some rude comments, they will cry "cyber bullies!" Sometimes I am beginning to doubt if they really are victims, or they are asking for it, literally bringing it upon themselves. So if people would like to post for the world to see their business and their most personal affairs, then it's their call. They have to face the consequences, if ever.
I also find this TMI and really tacky. And annoying, lol! So what I do is to hide them or put them on restricted so I will not be able to see their on-off relationship.

Indeed there are people who need to learn about privacy and the right of others' NOT to read or see everything they are thinking about!
I know of the same type of couples through my partner's Facebook. We were talking about Facebook one time and then he complained that he got "friends" (a co-worker and his girlfriend) there in his page who frequently posts their sweet-nothings literally. He said that they'd print-screen their text messages to each other then post in public so more people see those things on a day-to-day basis. It wasn't only recently that they stopped doing so when my partner confronted the co-worker and asked if he and his girlfriend were staying together, then when the co-worker said "yes" then my brave partner told him straight-to-his-face that nobody needed to know about their relationship online every freakin' day!
Hahahahahhaa.. I am proud of my hubby! hhahahahaha.. I would've loved to see the face of that person! hahahahaha.. I guess it worked, from that moment on, they never posted anything anymore. hahahahaha..
I mean, I think it's okay if you do that with your circle (very close friends, or the two of you alone) but it's different if you're posting stuff that would be viewed by your co-workers, acquaintances and even your boss, right? hehehehe..
I was just proud of him.
Anyhow, I'm not that brave so I would rather just unsubscribe from their posts so that I wouldn't need to see those things.
Have a great mylot experience ahead!

of course..
it is very annoying when we get update from every situation of people relationship
sometimes iam dizzy, why few people want to tell about their "relationship" very detailed to any person in social media..
hello..it`s their secret..and secret is kept well and more people didn`t know about the secret, it`s better

Even I have got one friend who post such things on the facebook. Till and until everything is going fine it will be ok. I have told my friend keep control on publishing such ways, but of no use

i agree. We should all just limit our posts in our facebook page and this thing that your "friend" is doing, it's just too much. Dont let the whole world talk about you guys, it's really not fun especially if the case is like that.

A lot of facebookers are like these, some even are quarreling. They should not post something too personal on facebook but then again when social media came about, people are not valuing their privacy anymore. Their lives are open for all to see.

This sort of mentality is rife on fb as far as I can tell and I have no time for it.
If people want to post something, anything, they can. If you don't like it, don't read it. I mean, you say you're not really her friend so what's your problem?
The thing I really don't get though, is if you don't like what she posts on fb, why are you telling us here at myLot???

Like you I am pisses off to that kind of scenario on my friends status. That's the reason I won't stay longer on my facebook page.
The reason why, I don't like to read different annoying status from them. I prepare to stay here and participate. Atleast I enjoy posting my point of views to other members,

It takes all kinds of people to make the world and some of them like the ones you mentioned, are basically exhibitionists who simply cannot keep it to themselves. They live with attention on them and are motivated by the crowd. I suppose they are another qualified bunch for the reality shows on the television networks.

Hello fatlex! :)
Well, people today longs for facebook and addicted to post anything about their feelings, which is somehow wrong. It's like telling what you feel and letting it all out and whole world knows what is it you are feeling. Don't they know how to keep some private stuffs for themselves?
That's the reason why most relationships go wrong because of posting too much on facebook. And then they will blame fb for that? What the heck???
Where are all their minds? Isn't it their ownselves that put them to that situation?
The guy is also doing the same thing? posting more of his feelings? WAAHHH!
They are acting nonsense and irresponsible ones, I may say.
They are not capable of keeping emotions to themselves.
They should learn how to control their emotions and not place all those in fb.
When you have a problem, talk to the person, not fb.
It's a way of letting trouble grow more bigger than it used to be...
What do you think?

I have a very similar friend! she is always posting pictures with her and her boyfriend, like one at two days... and when they fight they put "single" on facebook and change their profile pictures and in less than 3 days they are back together... It's annoing... I took her out of my close frinds list on fb. I think that private life should stay private. I never put my relationship status on facebook, but, still, if you want to make your relation that public, it's your choice, but it is way too much, it is not nice or cute at all.
