This is a Facebook message I wrote to my lovely friend, Lisa Diane. I may catch some flack for it, but I'm completely prepared because this is a personal pet peeve of mine. Go.

Okay, so I have a few Facebook friends (not real life friends) and whenever one of them has a boyfriend, EVERYTHING on their pages is about him.
For example:
Interests: Hangin' with my baby! Luv him!
About Me: I have the best boyfriend in the world! ♥ !
Status update: Dinner with the boy! I'm so happy!
So, whenever I notice one of these girls is suddenly listed as being single, it makes me smile a little. I'm sorry, but I just had to confess that to someone. It's unkind and unfair but it's true and effective.

Whatever happened to having real interests? Come on, girls! Take a pottery class!

Hahaha! I don't think I have many of those friends . . . unless you substitute "boyfriend" with "husband" or "child." Obviously, the girls (or guys) with families have a little more leeway, but I agree -- what happened to people's interests?
However, I have been guilty of letting go of my interests, too, and though I don't gush about a boyfriend online, I will still probably think about him more than is healthy.
Hm. Yes . . . more interests are good.
Sorry for the rambling.
Oh -- I once was um, "chastised" for not displaying my relationship status on Facebook when I had a boyfriend. I was accused of acting like I was "still on the market." Whatever.
So I shouldn't tell you how absolutely fabulous the hubs is and I live to love him? Ah ha ha ha ha
I love this so much! And this reminds me...did you watch this week's Dorm Life?!
You've GOT to be friends with a lot of preteens, right? Right!?
I love couples and married folk as much as the next person. What drives me batty is the girl that has four boyfriends in a year, and every single one is the "luv of my life!" That's when I get itchy. And sadly, Jenny, they're all technically adults. Yikes.
