Facebook Ruins People's Lives

Remember that time you and your boyfriend broke up and you thought it would be an awesome idea to just peruse his facebook wall and saw that some stupid blonde girl had written something like "it was good seeing you today ;) xoxo" and you couldn't get out of bed for 2 days because of the anguish you felt over this girl's message. Your thoughts were something like "Why, God, why? Why does he love this stupid girl and not me? Everyone knows that a winky  face emoticon means 'thanks for the sex'"!"
This may be a little bit of an exaggeration, but the things that we put ourselves through in the name of naive curiosity it ridiculous. Break ups are called break ups for a reason. You are broken, and you cannot be fixed, so while you are trying to adjust yourself to that, do yourself a favor and stop doing the emotional equivalent to purposely slamming your hand in a car door.Really though, Facebook is a life ruiner, it ruins people's lives.
Detach yourself, unfriend them, talk about how the blonde girl is really not very pretty, buy some new clothes, find a nice celebrity to obsess over (I enjoy Matt Damon myself.).
DO NOT  under any circumstances, watch anything based on a Nicholas Sparks book, all of your hard work will be negated.

haha, hilarious and oh-so-true!

P.S. I know, I really want to create something similar to that banner {in my Holiday post} for our living room. Perhaps in gray and white instead?

Thanks for stopping by :)
