No!

No Mr “I’ve got the longest bogies in the world and I’m going to send you one through the post as a nice surprise” First Boyfriend, I do not want to be your friend on Facebook.  Nor on My Space, so piss off.

Yuk.  What did I see in him?

    OH nooooooooo! That’s vile! :-(

    First boyfriends are always vile. I think it’s so that we appreciate the next one. However, second boyfriends are also vile.

    Men!

    Can’t live with them…

    Why do I feel the need for a little gender balance here?

    My first girlfriend was an absolute cow; 18 months of hell she put me through and gave me so many complexes about how I should/shouldn’t, can/can’t interact with members of the opposite sex that I’m not altogether sure I’ve got them all out of my system even now.

    She was a teasing, taunting, tantrum-obsessed bitch and she broke my heart on a regular basis.

    However…

    My last girlfriend was so wonderful I married her as soon as she said ‘yes’.

    Got a message on Facebook from a good school-friend’s ex-husband, a lad we also went to school with saying “I bet you hate me, hahahahahaha”.

    I wonder why he wasted his time and effort?

    Since he cheated on my friend only 18 weeks after she’d given birth to their honeymoon baby…then, yes, I pretty much hate him.

    And no, I didn’t waste my own time with a response.

    And I am the lucky wife of Brennig, by the way ;)

    Hi Soph,
    Thanks for your message and thanks for dropping by! I’ll check out your blog now…
    Yes, it’s strange how people send these random messages years after the event. I broke up with Mr Snot in 1991!

    Just think, if you’d ended up marrying him you’d be Mrs Snot now! And…just running with this one a bit…if your surname just happened to be Green (which, let’s face it, it could be. It’s not that uncommon a name) - you could be Mrs Green-Snot. How revolting is that?

    That IS revolting! I love strange/ unusual names.

    My favourite ever was an acquaintance of a friend in France. The poor girl had no idea how much English-speakers sniggered when they heard her name: Fanny Gonzalez. (Sorry, Fanny!)

    Urgh, stoopid ex boyfriend! I just find facebook too weird… Fanny Gonzalez - oh dear, I think she should stay in France and then she’ll be fine :)

    Hello SG. I’m not sure whether inserting links to other blogs in the comment box is good etiquette, but I seem to be getting into the habit. Sorry… Meg Pickard has a very interesting piece about Facebook on her blog:

    [...] most intriguing element of Facebook is being able to look up people from your past.  I wrote a post a while back about a horrible ex-boyfriend who contacted me several times via Facebook.  I ignored his pokes [...]
