Ah Facebook . . . We need to talk

Dear FaceBook,

I have something I have to tell you. You aren’t going to like this. And this is really hard for me to say, but I have left you for another social networking site.

Our thing was really good while it lasted. And it’s totally not you, it’s me.

I just need to follow my heart (and I know, because you love me, that you want the best for me). I need to be with someone who can make me laugh in 140 characters. Everything with us just goes on and on. And in your heart, you know it’s true.

I know we both thought we had found “the one”. But it turns out; I think you were my MySpace rebound. I’m thinking this was just a phase.

Also, I know this is shallow, but frankly, I need to be with someone younger. I know that when we got together, everyone thought I was a little old for you. But you know, I’m really a young soul. And now, it’s time to move on and follow my heart.

But what we had was completely real. I loved you. We had really fun times: shared a few secrets, watched some great clips, learned a lot about politics and made great friends together.

I understand that you don’t want this to be happening. And it kills me to hurt you. So we can keep in touch, check in every now and then. But I need to warn you in advance, this new Social Networking Site, we are thinking about becoming exclusive.

For now, can we just be Friends?

Love,

PS: Ummmm . . . obviously not going on that Valentine’s Day Cruise. Hope you are okay by yourself.

  1. I hear ya! I have a neverending love/hate relationship with Facebook as well. But as of now, I am hopelessly addicted and am not yet ready to break it off. I am two-timing it with Twitter... lol

  3. The time of your great post was interesting. I have definitely found myself on Twitter much more often than on Facebook. My cafe and farms are suffering!

  6. I still prefer blogging and Twitter to Facebook. There is an air of phony and annoyance on Facebook that I don't get elsewhere.
