Social networks and love

Written by Pinkpoodle from the blog What would you do on 11 Aug 2011
Favourite this post


Okay its been long since i wrote an article but like i said last week i have something nagging at me that i need advice on....

I think times have changed and its hardly ever a situation where u have to wait to meet a guy through friends or just by chance, you now have to take the ball into your own hands . With the advent of Social networks a lot of relationships are developing and people are meeting future husbands wives etc through this whole facebook and twitter Fiasco.

Okay i for one prefer to meet guys via Facebook as it more like a school reunion, i have reconnected with people from Primary, high school, University etc, and Yes i have Flirted with old flames and even had relationships with guys i used to have crushes on at school just to see what happens. But life happens we have all changed and are no longer the school going kids we were hence it has never worked...

So lately i met two guys via Facebook friends of friends.... problem is i think i am too judgemental , i have just over a hundred friends and these are close friends and family but these guys each have close to a thousand? My question is why do they need to be in touch with so many people and most being girls.....i think its wrong wht do u talk about with girls who have pictures of themselves in bikinis on their profile like really now?

Okay here are my questions
1. Would you date a guy who has thousands of friends and claims oh they are just friends and he always on facebook chatting?
2. Where do u draw the line if you and yr man are friends on one of the social networks and he is always commenting on other girls status and never on yours ...
3. Agrees to put in a relationship with ...on his profile and you find out you are the only one who can view that part of profile????
4. Are you friends with your men on facebook and do u think its a good idea?

all my friends on FB r ppl i know for sure

u ask 4 a friend request on & i dont know u i simply don't accept

u find ppl posting random things and a whole lot of ppl commenting on a line "am standing in a queue in a bank"  i mean really now

to tell the truth i prefer TVSA than FB and Twitter

1. Would you date a guy who has thousands of friends and claims oh they are just friends and he always on facebook chatting? With my man and I its the other way around. He has just over 200 friends and I have close to 2000 and it hasn't affected our relatonship negatively

3. Agrees to put in a relationship with ...on his profile and you find out you are the only one who can view that part of profile???? We have that on our profiles but the whole world can see

4. Are you friends with your men on facebook and do u think its a good idea? We're friends and I even have his Facebook password.

@ Maddie i also do not accept requests from strange people...or you get a request from someone called Pussy lover like really why would i be friends with someone like that... Thank God they now have these privacy settings where once u decline a request they cant ask again

@Tizoz My cousin met a guy via facebook they clicked like a house on fire... they mad arrangements to meet and dude came he was short and had bad breathe kkkk and that was the end ....

Whew! now lemme answer your questions

1. Would you date a guy who has thousands of friends and claims oh they are just friends and he always on facebook chatting? total waste of time

2. Where do u draw the line if you and yr man are friends on one of the social networks and he is always commenting on other girls status and never on yours ... if you do not want a heart attack dont be friends with your one and only, 

3. Agrees to put in a relationship with ...on his profile and you find out you are the only one who can view that part of profile???? For what purpose exactly? 

4. Are you friends with your men on facebook and do u think its a good idea? Again, a bad idea!

I'm fortunate to have a man who is technologically challenged. He has 2 BB's and all he knows is to sms and make calls from them :-) 1 time he showed me an sms from his friend requesting his BBM pin number. I told him it's like Mxit  for blackberry & he hates Mxit. I also deactivated my FB account after he got irritated with the time i spent on FB. If he tries and do the BBM thing he'll regret it because I'll have ALL the social networks and be active 24/7.  So no these social networks can really put strain on relationships. But i sometimes miss FB and quickly activate and chat for an hour and then deactivate again

social media have wrecked human relationships.
Life will never be the same again.
I will NEVER have a blackberry,never do facebook and despite the temptation will never join twitter.
if you can't reach me via email,text and calls,go jump into the lagoon.
any long lost school mate will be found if necessaary.i don't need facebook.

1. Would you date a guy who has thousands of friends and claims oh they are just friends and he always on facebook chatting? 
Yes i would.

2. Where do u draw the line if you and yr man are friends on one of the social networks and he is always commenting on other girls status and never on yours ... 
Thats his choice

3. Agrees to put in a relationship with ...on his profile and you find out you are the only one who can view that part of profile???? 
Would be hurt

4. Are you friends with your men on facebook and do u think its a good idea? 
Yes we are friends and he just comments like anybody else. Only my friends know he's my BF.

I'm a social network junkie, have more than 600 friends on FB. He does not have a problem with that, but only rule is we dont tweet, FB, BBM, whatsapp when we are in each others company. He knows Im a junkie during the day we chat on google, bbm, whatsapp, fb chat whenever wwe see each other online we chat. It doesnt put a strain on our relationship. We dont have that "in a relationship with mang mang" we just simple "in a relationship".
Sometimes will rite "its complicated" and he just laughs it off, he knows its just for fun.

I guess it all comes down to self control my problem is i want to know everything so  eish it would be hard for me to accept a guy with so many friends......

I also think these things are Toxic... i find myself looking at my phone every 2 sec , to check if there are any messages etc...

Although my man and I are friends on Facebook and we have that "In a Relationship with mang mang" we not all over each other's Facebooks. We never met on Facebook and we hardly comment on each other's statuses.

As for Facebook destroying relationships. It depends on the couple. If either one of you know you on Facebook to get laid and mess around then clearly that will happen. 

Keep your relationship out of Facebook. If your guy/girl does something f&ckd up  don't go running to Facebook and updating your status about it.

Some  people don't know where to draw  the line.I had a friend (I've removed her on my FB) who was a bit unstable. My man and I are friends with her baby daddy and that's how we met her. When things didn't work out with the baby daddy she went on this stupid tirade airing his dirty laundry in public about what a dead beat dad he is and blah blah blah.

LOL @ you guys...I think its all about maturity. For a very long time my partner wasn't my FB friend though we had over 40 mutual friends. I could log onto his profile though...and even update the status if need be. We only recently became friends and the two of us practically own both accounts.

FB almost destroyed my Lovelife and relationship a few years ago.

My FB page is predominantly family, plus a few loose ends that my woman detests, (... But I only have them because they have really great asses and pictures)

I will never encourage anybody messing with me or my lovelife on FB, nor will I get emotional about FB issues ... Been there, done that, got a whole drawer full of T-shirts from it.

I don't even look at my woman's FB page anymore. It's never worth it, ...Big & Hard  Lessons Learned there ... though .... I was, and still am highly offended by the fact that she lists her status as single and dismissed my objection as "Oh ... it's just FB ... nobody really matters there", which off course makes her a magnet for every pervert and horny A*Hole who is cruising pages looking for the single status ...

The strange Kaak about all that is that I did tell her that she will be opening the relationship to stressful risks when she took that move ... Well, it is her page and I grew not to care or give an *ish about what happens on it.

TVSA is where my pleasure is ... The people are diverse, and it is totally anonymous, and is all about opinons, thoughts, and the pleasure of blogging about something, anything, and nothing.

I Love TVSA more than any other e-vironment ...

And TVSA is my Homepage !!!

I'm an apple man and honestly ... iPhone is totally crap; I will be getting a Blackberry for me and my woman in the future.

BBM is an excellent and wonderfully cheap way to keep in touch with family, I endorse it.

Your Answers ... Flip the gender Please ...

1. Would you date a guy who has thousands of friends and claims oh they are just friends and he always on facebook chatting?
Not in a million years ...

2. Where do u draw the line if you and yr man are friends on one of the social networks and he is always commenting on other girls status and never on yours ...
It is disrespectful ... I have lived that, the only reason I don't comment on my woman's page is because I decided it is not worth visiting. I will get worked up if she's busy all cosy with her "Friends", and I value my relationship, therefore, I avoid stressers. I am extremely territorial.

3. Agrees to put in a relationship with ...on his profile and you find out you are the only one who can view that part of profile????
That's a new one!!! I'd really have problems with this ... i have problems / issues with her listing herself as single. This particular angle indicates deception, which I would not tolerate.

4. Are you friends with your men on facebook and do u think its a good idea?
frankly, FB is a really bad idea ... its origins was a bad idea, it will never be a good idea. Facebook is about finding and hooking up with as many people as possible .... or should I say Facebook = whorebook ... Nobody is anybody's friend on FB ... it is a "Messing around" forum.

I like real people who have sincere purpose regarding their Cyber-time-spend ... that's why I spend more time here than anywhere else Cyber.

I use my FB to keep track of family ... that is its principal purpose for me ... thereafter, it is essentially a peepshow and a strip-club for me.

I do look at a great ass, however, I am developed enough to always remind myself that I do love the woman I chose to be my Gal, unfortunately, too many people forget their obligations and forget they have people who think they are special.

Personaly, If one is in a relationship, and one does not have anything else to do with their time, spend time on TVSA and leave FB alone unless you belong to Booty groups like me.

What ?!? i like looking at great looking women with awesome Air-brushed asses that defy logic, meaning because they are made to look good ....
I know that I have no desire to meet them because those that I have met are head to toe thunder-flashes and lightning strikes, Zebras, Mamipi le Maforothla ... nothing like their pics.

The shape is there, but the person in the pic is not the person in real life.

TJO !!! That was long Hey!

VusiK
11 Aug 2011 18:10

If I was single ...

I would not date someone I met through FB, regardless of how real they may seem ...

If anyone wants to date a real person, stick around TVSA, and look ...

One gets to see real people and real opinions here , there are actually fantastic men and women on TVSA and one is able to see their true characters over time

I like environments like these better because nobody cares about how anyone looks or how anyone is dressed, nor is anyone impressed by anyone's shiny things ... It's people hanging out with people on an equal basis.

I Love everything about TVSA ... and anyone could be anything, but everyone generally keeps it real ... (Generally ... except for a few nutcases)

Most Important

It is SAFE

oh Vusi so true I feel that people on facebook are people who have so much time on their hands & with nothing important to do, a week passes by without even checking my page because I`ve got a lot to do with my precious time.

how true is everything that people say on facebook; pictures they paste? to me facebook is fake, people are not being original some they just brag about how good their relationships are but when things go wrong they never comment or say anything on their walls.

so I don`t take anything people say on facebook serious & I will never  ever date someone from it anyway.

oh VusiK I always come back just to read ur comments they make sense.

I also choose TVSA

I don't think I would meet up and date somebody from Facebook as I have only people I know in real life. Flip the gender, and 1. I might date her. I don't think I wouldn't date a girl just cause she got too many Facebook friends. But then again it depends on the situation. 2. I would probably just ignore her there as well. 3. I would tell her to leave it altogether. Just delete the whole thing and put whatever relationship status she wants. 4. Can't really make up my mind if it's a good thing to be friends with your partner.

VusiK
11 Aug 2011 22:38

@Cinglemother ...

It is this simple ... They are the same ... the syllabus is the same however, a child in creche probably has a distinct advantage over the one in the school.

The Kindergarten one may have the disadvantage of distractions, but the school one has the greater disadvantage of having the syllabus applied by people who are not properly placed for the adjustment your child will need in relating to the balance (play, sleep, learn, sleep, eat) that a Kindergarten will provide better for them than a school.

My suggestion ... Find a Montessori Academy Kindergarten, take your child there and invest the money in an excellent and clear advantage over the child who has not attended a Montessori accredited kindergarten.

12 Aug 2011 08:28

in SA if u want something good u hv 2 pay 4 it.

private education, security, health care
these r basic necessities that shld be covered by our taxes

off topic: read somewhere that Lira is taking her domestic helper's 2 children to private school and she just helped her gardener build his own 3 bedroom house  #wow

ppl like abo Lira will make u feel ukuthi whatever u do in ur little corner 2 help other ppl is nt a waste of tym if more ppl were lyk her this country will go far, which reminds of those white baas and missus who took their maid's kids to good schools, i laud these folks

VusiK
12 Aug 2011 09:34

why is good education so expensive mara?

Good education is expensive because it can attract better talent, which is naturally more expensive than mediocre talent.

That additional retention expense can only be transferred to the consumer of services ... You!

This is a fundamental of any business, All costs and expenses trickle down to the consumer, in technical and simplistic lingo ... it is called consumer burden.

But truthfully, work within your budget, rather drive your (eventually paid for) old car a lot longer and invest in the child's education.

It irritates me when people drive a shiny new car every 4 years and compromise their children's future(s). Do Not compromise on an excellent education for your Baby.

My parents were lower middle class and sent us all to the best private schools in the country (My sisters went to the best girls school in Africa, and I went to the best boys school (which unfortunately at the time was also the most expensive school in the Southern Hemisphere) ... Insane!?!) ... I still cannot figure out how they kept life together.

I do know that the investment they made in us is worth ten times any other investment they could have possibly made in material things.

@ Vusik

Could not agree with u more

my gripe is that u take ur kids 2 these xpnsiv schools & sum end up working as call centre agents, waiters (cos they can pronouce and spell caviars & oysters much better), painters etc no offence to these careers bathong

VusiK
12 Aug 2011 10:25

@Maddie ... That type of environment is partly because we do not invest in their inspirations to their accomplishment of great things; principally because WE as BLACK PEOPLE under-invest in our relationships with our children. (Too many of us invest more energy and time on external social interactions than within out own families and yards ... it is too often either friends or social events, or television (which is an extremely anti-social device), and/or some other activity that allows us to escape HOME and our obligations to that environment!)))

Only we, the parents can develop our children's sense of self worth ... in this regard, we absolutely fail our children's and consequently OUR FUTURE!

@Vusi i applaud you on that , we need to look at the resources and start thinking what the future generation can do...
Its also very sad when you those who have ventured into buss fail to compete with the best when it comes to services , We should be at a point where i would prefer to go to a black owned Restaurant or Advertising company because they are reliable...unfortunately it isnt so... most when it comes to service they suck...and you have to keep phoning for feedback instead of them picking up the phone and updating you ...we will have a long way to go ....

Rather eat cabbage everyday and send your child to the best school you can,and as a parent you have done your pat, it will be up to child to appreciate that and do their best in xul so that they wont end up working as waiters and at call centers. No parent ever dream that "my child is going to be a waiter"

12 Aug 2011 10:49

woow Vusik you have sure said it al brother... in Xhosa we say... "akafuni nokugxojwa" meaning we need not say more. Anyway just to add my two cents... first of all my FB is just to stay in touch with old friends and family. Luckily my hubby doesn't do these social network things so that has rubbed in on me as well. i update my status like once in one/two months... all I do is log in for ten minutes to see who is saying what then log off again. I bought my hubby a blackberry and I am using a Nokia X6... I asked him to download CH@T so we could chat cheaply since we are in different provinces and he told me that he is quiet happy to call me. He even hates sms's... he says they do not fulfill the hole left by the distance between us. All in all I think these things depend on the users... if you trust one another then you won't quarrel... but if trust is not there, then you are bound to fight over everything!!!!

i have come to realise that education is upon the child - i have seen parents investing heavily  in their children's education and they end up as drivers.  

i think it is very important for parents to choose private school wisely. i have a neighbour whose children were sent to the best schools in africa - one works as a teller at a local bank the other she is drug junkie and has a daughter. its really sad. 

some private schools are sometimes to blame, schooled with some at varsity and they could keep up with the work pressure because they used to been spoon fed. thy couldnt research on their own and most of them only know how to speak english and not write it hey  and its a painful reality to swallow.

i have seen parents investing heavily  in their children's education and they end up as drivers.

Generally when this happens, the parents also neglected the reality that they must invest their personal equity in their children ... Time, attention, Time, encouragement, Time, Love, Time, Support, Time, interest, Time, Ambition, Time!!!

... one works as a teller at a local bank the other she is drug junkie and has a daughter. its really sad.

Money is not everything ... they did not invest themselves in their children's futures!! Every child is a product of their environment ... I will bet you my last billion that such parents threw money at their children as an exhibit of affection ... and the people who did invest in the children had no ambition or vision ... hence the result ...
If we do not invest in our families, our children will form families and relationships outside of us, and it is those people's realities that manifest in our children. It is the parent's fault if the parent under-invest in a rock solid value system tht guarantees that the next genration supersedes and eceeds the abilities of the previous generation.

I call it PUTTING THE FAMILY FIRST !!! there is no compromise or substitute regarding this ethic in my philosophies as the baseline catalyst for progressive success.

Time and attentnion are Everithing!!

some private schools are sometimes to blame, schooled with some at varsity and they could keep up with the work pressure because they used to been spoon fed. thy couldnt research on their own and most of them only know how to speak english and not write it hey  and its a painful reality to swallow.

That is purely environmental ... They were spoilt brats who were celebrities on their street corner because they went to expensive schools and spoke good english ... they never understood or appreciated the value of the investment that was sacrificed for them ... again ... It is the parent's fault for abandoning the children because it was convenient.

I am writing these socio-debilitatory aspects of our reality because people are not aware of the value they have risk wasting and their obligations beyond the obvious.

i do facebook just to keep in touch with old friends miles away. 

all my ex who are on facebook never bothered whether my status was single, engaged or divorced. we never discussed facebook and never really checked their status unless it was on my wall or had funny comments from my friends about them. there is one ex though i want to unfriend still waiting for the right time
