I'v held a belief that for many years I've not needed the above book "Don't do F... B..k" has been a general moto of mine and my man. Now his ditsy best friend keeps loosing his phone and claims that he never rings as he looses numbers when looses phones, and H2B can't get in touch as phone is dead. This ditsy friend has claimed that if we have F... B..k then he'd be in touch all the time.
Do I go against my morals and join the book of my hell Do I stand by our moto of "Don't do F... B..k???
I really have privacy issues over the whole thing and I actually don't want to have to reject people who I know will add me, there are some things I gladly share with all and some things I'd rather not.
I have a really happy social life, instant messaging and email contacts with all the people I love but it seems strange to see that F... B..k has taken over so many lives around me, I used to sit in lectures and while I was being a swot it seemed everybody else was awaiting and wetting themselves when someone did something on the horrible book.
I guess I have a big battle on my hands and that everyone on this site are avid book fans but I'd still value your opinions (nearly wrote onions).
Any way let me know and will take no offence and intend non to all. Tell me I'm being silly about my dreamt up morals. Or tell me to stick to my guns and not succumb to peer pressure.

your beliefs are your beliefs hunni and in my opinion if he does lose his phone but can get on to the book then why on earth cant he drop u an email at same time if he knows how u feel about it after all a message on there is the same as an email anyways!!!!!!!!!!! my opinion sorry xx

facebook is what you make it hun you dont have to add any pictures you dont have to add any contact info all that can be hidden. you could always have a joint one together just to keep in touch with friends.
it is no more reviling than being on here to be honest if anything this site is more reviling (sp)

If you do join hun, you can make your page private in such a way that if someone was to search for you you wont be able to be found. Means that you only send out friend requests to who you want and dont have to reject any if that makes sense. I was reluctant to join but have found friends who I had lost contact with and can chat for free with my best buds in Oz xxx
Thanks you guys I'l see if I get anymore opinions. It would be a joint account as he simply doesn't understand putas there not x-boxs. My friend with little un's keeps threatening to make my account for me as she's upset i don't see the flick book of her kids eating an ice-cream or sitting on the couch. lol. i'l be the same when i have kids.

I love FB for the simple reason I can keep in touch with everyone so much easier and I can share my photos with them all. My account is private so only my friends can see or write on my page. FB does have it's downside though and can be the route of all evil but as the girls have said it is what you make it. xxx

I resisted for ages but if it hadn't been for the book, I wouldn't have met Kieran. (He was friends with most of my friends but we had just never met!) I got back in touch with old friends too. As the girls have said. It is what you make it. Some people seem to live their lives through it and comment on every waking moment and others barely use it, popping on only to find out what's new. It is nice to nosey around my friends lives because I am quite nosey in general ;0) (That's why I'm on the forum now)

I was very much like you about the book, but a friend went to canada for a year and that is how she was going to stay in contact with people so I gave in. There are aspects I don't like and I have days where I consider getting rid of it but mostly it is useful for me keeping in contact with friends now uni is well and truely over! Like others have said it is what you make it. Obession with it is not a necessity to getting a profile!
CommentAuthorkellyc13
im the same im only on it to talk to my family who dont live by me and to share my photos with them, i thought i would feel bad rejecting people who tried to add me but to be honest most dont even notice, and the ones who do dont mind. just keep it simple maybe share a profile and have a small group of friends on there. x
so little time, so much to do!
CommentAuthorDrunchPunk
I use it a lot, but that's probably cos I'm rubbish at keeping in contact with people...
CommentAuthorsarahwasabride
i use it 2 keep in contact with family and friends that i have lost contact with since moving from london 2 liverpool. just add who u want 2 on there and set a privacy on it so that no body else can access it xx

It has its uses, and it has its drawbacks. I couldn't live without it now, I I don't think.
