Yay you're back!

You beat my local paper on writing about this by a day or two.

I saw a friend crash her own relationship because she was posting about her insecurities in the relationship and he was on her friend's list.

She'd also ask me to go check her ex's profile (not the same guy) to see what he's up too. Ahhh Stalkbook.

Phoenix! So glad to see you back! I hope you're feeling better!

I'm online a lot but I haven't run into jealousy issues with my husband. However, maybe that's because he's not online except for when he reads my blog. Although, I have to agree with Kim, if people are posting things like "having more fun than I'm supposed to" or "going out without my wedding rings again!" then, yeah, trouble will ensue.

It was good to hear from you again. I had no idea you were having problems, but I am really glad to hear you are back.

BTW I don't have a Facebook acount and only opened a Twitter account because of pressure from a friend, but I haven't kept it up because I think Twitter, especially, is mostly inarticulate babble.

I'm a facebook junkie! Haha I could totally relate to this post. Once I read something questionable and ended up in a fit of tears. Alas it was over a stupid application and its dumb headlines..

The wife is not on Facebook but she does get awful curious sometimes about what I am doing on there and who I am talking to.

Welcome back my friend, good to see you writing!

PHOENIX!

I think that people just need to think before they post.

Wow, am I glad to hear from you again... you gave us quite a scare!

Hope you're doing better now.

btw, I'm on FB and Twitter, but you know me, it's all political, no personal stuff.

Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, who has time to keep up with all that stuff?

Yep! I've seen it firsthand.

nice post. Glad to see you writing again. I seem to have that real-life Phoenix thing going on, too.

RE: facebook. I think it depends upon the relationship and how stable/long lasting it is beforehand. And if you are prone to jealousy then it will happen on FB as easily as anywhere else, checking incoming cell phone calls, emails, etc.

I think the real problem with FB and other online avenues and couples are the length of time spent online vs. real life. If it becomes unbalanced, that can create discord, jealousy, etc.
