Moving Right Along...

 So I've now been unfriended. I didn't do anything myself to really deserve it which makes it all the more strange yet hurtful. It was someone else who's big mouth and bad manners began this ending and I wish I could go back and hang up the phone or do something, anything different. In some ways a burden is lifted and in others the burden is quite pressing. I'm a sucker for  believing in the wrong people. It's like a curse that I know about but continue to ignore. My head plays games with me all the time, trying to question those who are sincere and really 'in' my life while I fully invest and trust in those who toss me to the side when the wind blows them in the wrong direction. I read a quote once and I think it was 'don't choose to make yourself available full time to someone who chooses to make you part time'. Makes sense.  I'm not disposable.
Now should I fear the 'unfriending trend' ? One person gets mad at another for some reason, and its validity doesn't always matter either. Then they get their friends to also unfriend. We are a fucking Facebook nation, eh? And the poor unfriended one. Their shit, again whether true or false, gets smeared so easily across the internet. Cyberslander runs amok.  The one who's been wronged can post sly headlines to provoke others to ask what's wrong. I'm guilty of posting leading headlines for sure.......
Is it time to kill Facebook? It was such a fun tool for communicating, finding old friends, joking around, and letting others know what super shit was going on around you at any given moment.  Smiles abounded from waking up to find your friends had posted something on your profile that fit you like a glove. It seems to be one of those stupid double edged swords of life. 
I've lost a friend. I don't have a lot of them so losing one is a super big deal. Back to re-learning...
