... suddenly message you on facebook, do you go:

(a) "Ewwwww! Stalker alert! Run for the hills!";

(b) "Dang, I must have been a good lurvvver, if they're still feelin' me all these years later";

(c) Both?

Facebook is fookin' weird. But weirdly intriguing.

    Well, was she 'stalkerish' 15 years ago? If not, I'm sure it's no big deal. She's probably feeling nostalgic and decided to look you up............I just opened a facebook account. I might have to track you down..he he ;)

    If I knew how to use facebook, Fins, I'd look you up. Fortunate for you, I don't.

    Er, she was always bonkers. But she was fit. Now, she's probably just bonkers. :D

    I'm guessing she's a M now, a few times over, but I'm not sure of the ILF bit. :D

    Anyway, enough of me and my fanclub. Has anyone else here found that prehistoric ex-bonking partners have tried to contact them after years, via the wibbly wobbly world of the Web?

    Yep, via myspace.........and yes, it was awkward. Actually, I had several old high school friends, not just the ex, contact me within just week of opening the account. I only had my facebook for a day when another old friend tracked me down. It's been cool and odd at the same time.

    Edit: I would exactly call my ex an ex-bonking partner, though........Does it still count?

    My ex-boyfriend (from 6 years ago) requested me as a friend on myspace. No message, nothing. I accepted. Come to find out, he has a joint account with his girlfriend and it was SHE who requested me. Now THAT'S creepy. :eek:

    D) She works at the local pharmacy and is privy to your monthly Viagra order.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I'd say about half of my myspace list is ex-g/f's from like 10-15 yrs ago. In fact, the other day I was going through my list with a friend and it went something like, "I banged her, her, her, her and her..."

    And I wasn't all that great either. So, yeah, I think it's the nostalgia of it all that does it for them.

    Yup, it's cool. To see the mdma chemist that actually got his M.D. Or the aerospace engineer that got the daughter he always wanted.

    I would say B.
    I never think stalker, I think they just want to be friends again or a lay.
