Facebook Disappoints

by Sherard Harrington

So, went in and changed my relationship status to “single” on Facebook today. And I thought I had managed to hide the switch, but apparently not.

Why doesn’t Facebook have some sort of delayed posting option, or like a cloaked posting option? My boyfriend and I broke up. It sucked. I wallowed. Time to move on. I don’t need the friends I didn’t tell trying to comfort me now. Just because I switched my relationship status and I don’t want anyone to know I switched it doesn’t mean I should have to hide my status to accomplish this. There’s the difference between the figure and how the figure is handled. Get with the times Facebook.

(Actually, I mentioned Xanga last week to a group of 20-somethings, and they all gave me that deer in headlights look. So, maybe I’m the one who needs to get with the times. Just have a public breakup. Go Jerry on this. ...is that show still on, by the way?)
