I’m Angry

Perhaps angry is not the right word…I’m ambivalent.  The wonderful online world of facebook seems to get me in more trouble than it seems worth.  My sister in law was on my friend list, and I was actually unsure as to add her or not given the fact that my brother and I had never really had a strong relationship, or a relationship at all really. But against my better judgement, I accepted her friend request. It then appeared that my status updates and action was being filtered from her to my brother and back to my parents. Regular stuff didn’t bother me, but when I recently joined a group from Bi and Lesbian girls well the news travelled so fast to my parents you couldn’t even blink. Now my view is this would probably be a sort of personal thing, and perhaps my fault for joining, but what right does my brother have to report this back to my parents. Would you think that perhaps this might be something I would want to discuss with them when I was ready? Well apparently not. He wonders why I tell no one I have a brother, and this is yet another example. Maybe I am taking all too personally, but it really pissed me off.

So I removed her from my friend list. Best way to stop it seemed to cut off the source of the information. However, she didn’t seem to take it so well. I received a lovely email from her full of quotations…ah the elephants never forget! I can’t even be bothered anymore.
