Disagreement About Facebook

I use Facebook because I find it to be a convenient and efficient way to keep in touch with Friends.

My Girlfriend believes that it is a complete waste of time and that only losers use facebook so they can show how many friends they have and post pictures of themselves to show off. She also feels that it is only for people who want to pick up... I say that is no different from going to a bar. Some people go to pick up, others go to catch up with friends, and I use if for the later.

It’s like an address book for friends who I don’t speak to regularly as it can be hard to keep in touch with people you don't see often. I also find it informative about some events. eg. I recently received a Pre Wedding invitation via FB. I also occasionaly look at friends photo's of events, kids or holidays as it's not always conventient fo them to carry photos everywhere they go.

I usually log in a few times a week after work or sometimes during work if I get a Message sent to me directly but often I don’t look for weeks.

She feels very strongly about FB being for wankers... We’ve had long arguments on many occasions leaving a feeling of resentment between us as she can’t accept that I use facebook for valuable reasons.

I say.. who cares.. just don’t use it and don’t judge me for it just because you don’t like it.
