Facebook Reality Check

Is it just me or has Facebook ruined a lot of fantasies out there? It’s great that we are reconnecting we past friends and acquaintances but I realized it has squelched quite a few fantasies I have of crushes past. There is a certain thrill when you get a friend request from a love from the past to only find out that they are now sporting a pot belly, still hang out with the same five guys every weekend and have children by three different baby mamas. Kind of kills the fantasy, no? Not that I dwell on anyone from my past but you know we all take a jaunt down memory lane every once in a while. I can’t decide if FB is genius or too much reality. We all have “friends” that we probably wouldn’t stop to talk to in the grocery store – or be able to recognize. Oh let’s face it, reality rarely lives up to our expectations. I’m certainly not the MILF I’m sure some of them out there hoped I would be . . .
