oh just a silly thought, I just got this idea and thought it would be a nice topic for us to chat about here in mylot. I mean we all can share those crushes of ours and have we ever tried to look them up in facebook and see how they are doing, see if tthey already got married, or how their appearances may have already changed? I can say i have done that with one crush (a friend of my older brother - oops) he was just the ultimate crush i had back then and was the only only not a celebrity! haha now i can even still remember his face! :D Please do share how you tried, or have you even attempted in trying to find your crushes in facebook? :D

GUILTY HERE! hahaha Of course, I did try to search for them. I have always wanted to know what happened to them and how their wives look and if they have great lives. I have actually found my first love whom I had no communication for 26 years!

Well, I did make that move. There was something that I needed to know for the past 26 years. And now I feel good about knowing the truth.

Everybody stalks their crushes on Facebook. Lest assured this is normal, and everyone will stalk someone at one point in their lives. I stalked my crush a lot on Facebook, I've even saved his pictures on my phone, I do this every day while I'm having breakfast, just to start up my day even though I've already memorized which picture comes next in the sequence of his albums. I've even had the mistake of liking a status he has made 4 years ago. Hopefully he realizes that the Facebook timeline can actually take you there in a matter of minutes. Either way, I'm still embarrasses thinking about it since I know he probably already saw it. It took me a hard time too finding him cause he used a different name and hisfacebook was unsearchable. What I did was recall names of his family members. Thank god his mom's profile wasn't private (oh my goodness! Must love moms) and then I searched through all of her friends and found him yay!! :D now you know I'm obsessed anyway, that's how I did it, :D

I have to say I have used facebook to contact old boyfriends and a crush. I am friends with them on facebook and we are still close. Some of them we ended on good terms and still kept in touch after high school. So yes i have to say I have done this. And this guy I never thought I would date in school I reconnected with on facebook and we hung out a few times and now we are dating and going on almost 2 yrs. It's amazing how things work out that way.

oh yeah, i really did get to do this myself, i even used FB to say sorry to my ex's whom i have dumped(sorry for the term) we did not really had good break ups and it was only my choice, really. ;) but its really wonderful.. facebook made it possible and even if you do not have a meas to contact the person otherwise, at least there is this facebook. right?

Oh yes. I found my crush on a facebook, but I don't like him anymore. I add him as a friend and every time I stare at him, well, there is something wrong with his face. Its like his face changes and he became fat! He's handsome before and not anymore. He already got married. At first, when I add him, I thought he's not him. I stared him at the eyes and his nose then, I realized that he's him.

I have to admit, I have done this before. I just wanted to see what they have been up too, and sort compare yourself telling yourself why you didn't get together with them.

Yes; I have done it already. It's silly yet exciting to know how they are now. I was looking for my crushes when I was in kindergarten and highschools. When I was in college, I got no crush anymore,hehe. Yah, after I found their accounts in facebook, I told myself, lucky I didn't end up marrying them :) I'm happy I met my husband look a like eminem hubby :P

I have done that .. i do have a lot of crushes when i was in high school, and i looked up some of them on facebook and they were there.. I didn't stay long though, just looked at his wall and didn't even friend him . i did it a long long time ago, maybe i'll do it again today.. just to see if his face changed.

I have not tried to look up my high school crush in Facebook. But I tried searching for mg grade school crush. All of my high school batch mates are included in a Facebook group so I can easily message them anytime. But I have this crush when I was fourth grade. He left our school after two years and I do not have news about him. I searched him in Facebook and I can not find him.

Even though I don't like Facebook AT ALL, I did try to find my high school crush on Facebook three years ago. But I didn't find him I guess he hates Facebook as much as I do or maybe I didn't know now where to look. I guess I am going to have to wait until my first high school reunion to see him again.

I sometimes see his statuses or tagged photos as he was a classmate, and even though I'm not friends with him on fb, some of my friends are. I looked him up 2 or 3 times, but honestly, I could care less. I was just nostalgic, but I wasn't really interested in him as a person... because I was having a crush on him for about 2 years, but now I'm like, what the heck did I see in him (not necessarily lookswise, but personality-wise)?... or not even now, but in my ladt years of high school (I went to a 8-year high school in my country), so that kind of helped...

Hi dorofee. =) hehe well that is what most of us would do, or is still doing. we just get curious as to how people are doing, part of maybe is to know how or what has changed in them = probably with a comparison to ourselves as to seeing ho much they have done in their lives.

That's the first thing I did after knowing the name of my crush hahah I still remember the days that every time I logged in to facebook, the first thing I do was to check on her profile page and also her picture albums. Have a nice day and happy mylotting! :)
