Has anyone ever noticed how painful it is changing your relationship status on Facebook?
One of my friends recently had to go through this torturous process. Within just a few clicks of a mouse the whole Facebook world knows your “picture perfect” relationship is OVER. Changing your relationship status it like “rubbing salt on a bad wound”. It gives everyone a chance to comment good or bad on the past relationship. For the person being broken up with it is especially hard! Once you see that your past boyfriend/girlfriend is now “single” in black in white on your screen, it makes the healing process even harder. It also gives people the chance to stalk their ex’s every move, which can make getting over an individual especially difficult. Facebook is also often used as a tool to create jealously for the other party. All it takes is one “Hey…I had fun last night” post from an unknown friend to drive the breaker-upper or the breaker-uppee go insane.
In my opinion the mourning process has to have been a lot easier in the past before Facebook relationship statuses. Everyone has experienced this painful breakup process over Facebook. Or has probably used Facebook to make the other person jealous in some way. What do you fellow stalkers think???
