Alright people out there in blogger-world peering at my blog which, lets face it, is to some degree spying. Or perhaps it is more like voyeerism with a some sort of consent? Whichever, I have a question for all of your....
Do you spy on former friends, neighbors or ex's on places like Facebook and My Space?
Of course I am asking because I am as guilty as the rest of you probably are. I want to reassure myself I am not the only one doing it!!! So here is my basic, as vague as possible story. A former good friend has a FB account. I honestly did not look for FGF but a mutual friend, who rarely hears from said friend, mentioned she stumbled across the profile. I did my best to ignore temptation but I caved after awhile. I didn't look at the profile but rather the "friends in common" list. Why? Because I don't want her peering into my life without me knowing it. If I know what friends we have in common then I know how or by who she could come across some of my stupid musings and status updates. Like they are so important or private that it would ruin me if she read them. How stupid! I know.
But come on, I am not the only on out there doing it. Fess up! Pleeeeaaaaasse.

I am guilty of spying as well - more the friends in common list too. I don't really want to know all about them but I still have that urge to peek!
I'm guilty! I've done a search before on some old friends and ex's. I can't help my curiosity...I guess I just want to see what they've done with themselves. But I'm sure almost everyone does it!!
Shoot yeah. I'm nosey. I don't think I do it to be harmful. Just curious.
I've got 2 facebooks, 1 for friends and 1 for family (because Hubby's family is way more gossipy than my own). I've also looked up former friends. Haven't done the ex's though. Not sure I want to go there!
Blog is looking great, bty!
I've both spied and been spied on! haha
Thauna - how do you know when you've been spied on?
