Just A Warning: Jealous People Might Contact You

My ex-boyfriend John has friended and unfriended me many times on Facebook. Thus, I wasn’t shocked when he unfriended me again recently. I just rolled my eyes and shook my head.

Then I received a personal message from him:

[Unfriending you] was for your own protection. Seriously. The woman. She began to show a very mean, possessive and jealous streak and has begun contacting FB friends. You and about six other females were deleted. Nothing personal. All passwords have been changed just in case. So fed up with dating.

One might find this terribly dramatic and shocking except this is not the first time I have been warned by a man about the possibility of a woman contacting me.

Who's calling? A jealous person.

Who’s calling? A jealous person.

Waiting For The Other Shoe To Drop

There’s a scene in the “Sex and The City” movie that I’ve been thinking about recently.

Charlotte and Carrie are furniture shopping. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the movie, at this point Charlotte is pregnant after a long battle with infertility, Carrie has been stood up at the altar, and Miranda’s husband Steve slept with another woman.

Charlotte says, “Nobody gets everything they want! Look at you, look at Miranda. You’re good people and you two both got shafted. I’m so happy and… something bad is going to happen.” Carrie responds with, “Sweetie, you shit your pants this year. Maybe you’re done.”

I’ve Become A Drama Queen

In general, I’ve never considered myself to be a drama queen. Even when some tough event was happening, it seemed for the most part that I tried to keep it as mellow as possible.

Until lately.

I swear many more things in the last couple years and especially the last few months seem dramatic. I’m walking into nonsense that 15 years ago I would not have found myself facing. I’m embroiled in other people’s messy relationships or I just seem to face a series of bad luck. Even some of those close to me think that I’ve become fragile and seem a little impatient with me.

Wait. Who Is That Person (on Facebook)?

I’m on Facebook and have 520 friends.

On The DL has 737.

Wild One has 489.

High Hopes has 478.

Facebook is a busy place. And it lends a whole new dimension to relationships.

No, I’m not talking about Facebook as a dating site. Despite what my friend Gary says, the social media giant is not the new single’s scene.

Okay Gary might be kind of right. A 2008 Pew Internet and American Life Project shows one in five adults use Facebook for flirting.
