The Facebook phenomenon has allowed you to reconnect with your best friend from elementary school, keep up with your buddys travels and get out of hours-long phone conversations with your aunt. It truly is a remarkable tool. However, as with most things, there is a dark side to Facebook. While your male brain may not have tapped in to the full manipulation potential of this seemingly innocuous social networking tool, chances are several of the women you know have. Women are trained in the art of creating, maintaining and controlling relationships, and Facebook is just one more resource they can use to keep tabs on and influence people. Here's a list of some crazy things women do on facebook.
Women set up fake profiles to follow exes on Facebook
This one may seem a bit extreme, but it is certainly not unheard-of for a woman to set up a fake Facebook persona in order to creep on her exs profile. At the very least, she might get a mutual friend to allow her a little access to an exs Facebook page. Whether you broke up badly or it was mostly mutual, if you dont keep in touch, she probably wants to know what youre up to. Instead of calling or e-mailing you, its easier and less embar****ing to scope out your profile while you are blissfully unaware that she is checking up on you. If you want to prevent this from happening, dont add any strangers to your friends list. If you have a friend you know is still in touch with her, keep your interactions limited.
Women manipulate through Facebook photos
The photos a woman posts on her profile can be innocent -- or they can be totally manipulative. Another crazy thing women do on Facebook is to put up embar****ing or compromising photos of people that have gotten on her bad side. When a guy breaks up with a girl and the next day photos of him in one of her dresses hit her profile, its not only vindictive, but also pretty immature.
A woman might also use her Facebook photo albums to present an image of herself that doesnt exactly match up to reality. In her photos she might appear more sexy, more adventurous and altogether more exciting than she is in real life.
Women post passive-aggressive Facebook status updates
The Facebook status update can share big news with your friends or the mundane activities of your day, but for some women they can also serve an emotionally manipulative purpose. Whether its because she hates confrontation or she just wants the world to know what a jerk her boyfriend is, some women use their status updates to air complaints about their relationship instead of sitting down and talking it out directly. For example: Valerie visited the jewelery store and is tired of waiting!!!! could be a not-so-subtle clue that she doesnt want to wait for that engagement ring much longer. Post-breakup, a woman might post status updates that hint at a crazy social life: Melanie is exhausted from a crazy night! or Jessica is having a great day, are both the types of messages that say a lot more when they come right after a big breakup.
Women post ambiguous relationship photos
Its not uncommon to see pictures of women with their arms around their friends, kissing them on the cheek, whether their friends are men or women. For some, these may be innocuous expressions of affection for their good friends, but for others they could be an attempt to elicit an envious response from their partners. These ambiguous photos with other guys could also cause other people to question the strength of her relationship with her boyfriend.
If its a single girl posting pics of her getting close to guys without making it clear whether or not they are dating, it can throw people off when they are thinking about making a move, causing them to be unsure of whether or not shes already taken.
Posting a fake relationship status
Some unattached women choose in a relationship for their profile just so people wont start matchmaking or single-girl-pitying. A single woman of a certain age is a prime target for people who think everyone should be paired off in "happily ever after" relationships. Some single women even arrange with one of their close girlfriends to be each others in a relationship with person to avoid this kind of condescending sympathy. Theyd rather raise questions about their sexual orientation than leave the space blank.
