Good days/Bad days
Why are some days easier than others? Why can't they all be easy!!? I find myself asking if Facebook is really a good thing in my life. I started out "friending" my step-daughter's mother and her bf...but then it just seemed a little too close for comfort, so I "blocked" them both!! I didn't care to hear all of the wonderful things happening in her life and with her business, and how much she loves her bf.....i just couldn't hear it anymore! This is embarassing to admit, but I still from time to time, get on my sister's page and look them up! Just to see if any major announcements have happened, really I'm just being nosy! But then I find myself spiraling into a depression. Then I just get angry. We all know that no one puts anything bad about themselves on FB...so it's not realistic that someone has a perfect life, but it still does a pretty good job at making me feel like crap. Why do I care so much about what his ex is doing?? I feel crazy for getting so upset over her happiness. I don't know if it will ever stop. She is due to get married June of 2012...and it is just an iminent(sp) storm waiting to happen. We never married, but we've been together for 11 years. So to watch/hear all of this happen in front of me.....i'm not sure how much I will be able to take! It sounds terrible and horrible and I'm only saying this bec I'm anonymous....but I want something to go wrong in her life! I want her and her perfect bf to have something difficult to deal with. It's terrible to wish unhappiness in someone's life, but that's the only way I feel. I'm tired of hearing all of the wonderful things going on in her life....when i'm having trouble finding happiness in mine...:(

Facebook can be addictive at
Facebook can be addictive at the best of times and it IS only a carefully edited window on someone's life. But you care so much because you are unhappy in your own life. You need to try to turn it around and instead of wishing unhappiness in her life, so she can be on a par with the unhappiness in your own, try to think of steps you can take to bring more happiness to yourself. You got some good advice on your last blog post...
Yes.. THIS ^^
Yes.. THIS
I'm also guessing it's not
I'm also guessing it's not true. No one's life is perfect and rarely is anyone's life even near perfect. And if life was really so great, BM wouldn't feel quite so compelled to create a display of how wonderful things are for her. Kinda like who is she trying to convince?
