See............this why.....?

See... this is why I prefer not to place my life on websites like Myspace and Facebook.

Prior to owning a Myspace page, I kept my photos to a limit (without many photos pertaining to my life style). Perhaps because I'm more on the reserved side. I just uploaded some boring flicks that could help people identify me to connect. And then there was Facebook... I recently uploaded pictures of my children and my partner because I thought, "why not", I should be proud and open with my family. Eff everyone else. Well, issues between myself and my partner has/had severely increased over the last divergent months. I did however have enough aspiration to believe that our problems would decrease, just as long as we worked at it. Apparently not. We have parted, and now, our pictures remain on my Facebook because I am inordinately disquiet and unwilling to unfurl my disturbing news to everyone. I don't want to to talk with anyone about it because I am ashamed and extremely irate about my situation. No, the gossip of others is not what bothers me; it's mainly the knowledge I have freely exposed to them that gives them the opportunity to involve themselves in my life... I want to remove the status and photos because it's done but it shouldn't be that important right, it's just Facebook, right? I'm thinking of deleting my Facebook to make sure this doesn't happen again. But there are people who I'd like to keep in touch with. Any suggestions?

    Many people like to keep their personal life personal. Most of your friends on facebook are probably people you know in real life-right? If you know them in person, they probably knew you had children and some people like to see their loved one's children as they grow, especially if they live far away. There is an option facebook to make it so only your preferred people can see status updates and pictures, or where only your friends can.

    If you want to delete your facebook, then delete it. Before you delete it get in touch with the people on facebook you want to keep in touch with and ask for their phone number or email. This way you can still keep in touch with these people without having social website drama.
