Why Should I Freaking Care About Your Facebook Relationship Statuses
I learnt that one of my Secondary school acquaintance got engaged recently. I cannot help but beam at the 48 comments and 5 'Likes' from Facebook on this status update.
Gah.
And then I come back to reality and told myself and prolly just another 'lets get married in Facebook' just like what Xiaxue and of course thousands of others would have virtually declared in their Facebook page.
But I think this is for real. So, congrats to YOU (Liyana Yeo)!!!!!!! Though I don't know her on a personal level. Yikes. Facebook is creepy - it makes you TALK to strangers and PRETEND that you have 200+ friend, even though you ONLY SPOKE to 50 of them in your entire life!!!
ANYWAYS,
I have a double take on these Facebook Relationship Statuses.
One 1 side of it, who cares if you are in a relationship with Mr ABC or Miss XYZ. All people do is that they will click on their 'spouses' name and if you are blessed with a square-jawed hunkie as your hubby, then people will be secretly jealous that you have a hunky thong man by your side.
But if your hubby looks like a car wreck, people will just snigger at it and will later comment "congrats! he looks cute!" Not.
How can people judge a person by his profile picture?! Pictures are BARELY accurate.
But then again, Relationship Statuses are great if you are a desperate attention seeker who LIKES to have endless comments on how you turned from being in a relationship to single.
I can't help but feel sorry for those who actually takes these relationship statuses seriously. That is because I just had a friend who changed from married, to in a relationship and to single all within a week. So, should I really bother and ask her whether she's alright and how's the divorce coming along?
There is no need to show with whom you are in relationship with because if THEY ARE REALLY YOUR BOSOM buddies, they would have known, right!?
*Shrugs*
So people, stop freaking update your Facebook relationship statuses because the world won't end if you fail to update with whom you have been smooching for the last 24 hours.
Bless you all.

[edited; 8.19pm] by this, it doesn't mean that i'm against all of you who already have your relationship status updated respectively. I mean, go ahead, tell the world!!! If your status is REAL, then I have no qualms :) at all.
