Title: facebook minidrama!
Post by: recursivelyenumerable on June 12, 2008, 04:36:58 PM
My sister's friend (they are 16, I turn 26 tomorrow) has a big crush on me (at least according to my sister) and she just asked me to friend her on Facebook.  I don't want to encourage her, but I can't bring myself to actually snub her with an "ignore" either.  I was thinking I'd wait till I'm safely halfway across the country and then accept, but now I'm not so sure.  (isn't having a HS girl on your friends list, other than relatives, kind of creepy?)  What should I do?  Maybe if she really is infatuated with some image of me I can use it for a good cause by getting her into Marxism or something.

eh i'd politely decline, and instead meet her irl - to tell her you're a grown man, she's a child, it wouldn't work and could give you unwanted street cred.

How are you so adept at avoiding pussy?

PD: I am halfway across the country (not that I'd do that anyway).

What's the matter with accepting a friend request?  Just do it and never talk to her.

you don't want to be That Guy who has a post on a kid's facebook  :-\

now if she was an intelligent young woman who happened to be 16 (like someone on my facebook  :o) it would be perfectly fine. but this girl sounds rather childish smh

I agree with amber. It's better to piss off a 16 year old than have to explain to people why you have a 16 yo on your page.

brandnew: dunno, I guess I only have 16 friends, not hundreds like some people, so it feels like it means something.

 Screw it, just put this under her picture.

Go for it, I have my friend's 16 year old cousin on my Facebook.  I don't ever talk to her though (maybe in 2 years ;) )... the polite thing to do is accept the friend request.

Post by: recursivelyenumerable on June 12, 2008, 04:46:21 PM
She's one of my sister's closest friends BTW, that's what makes it teh drama.  Otherwise I'd just ignore her and wouldn't care.

press ignore for great justice!

I also approve of you sending her a message with the text "zzzzzzzzz" in it

You should probably talk to her.  Maybe over a nice bottle of Mike's Hard Lemonade and a bag full of condoms.

I sorta think hundreds of friends is more pathetic than 16 (if you don't actually have hundreds of friends).  I'm using Facebook to communicate with people I know, not to rack up social gamerscore.

Tell her that your cock is too big for her.

Post by: recursivelyenumerable on June 12, 2008, 05:02:34 PM
Yeah, I have a few EB folks in my facebook friends, but only the ones I feel I "know" to some degree.

Anyway, after a bit of thought I decided the best policy was to apply the same standards to everyone.  Since in general I only friend people I know well or find interesting, and I've only met her a few times and we never actually talked much or anything, there's no reason not to ignore her friend request.  Even if she is cute  :lol  My sister's a thousand miles away anyhow, no need to worry what she thinks.

I have a lot of people on my list, but most of them I don't talk to. They all added me. Facebook is annoying, I mostly jsut talk and argue with the same few people I am close friends with IRL.

I'm afraid I just passed up my chance of success for my emo band (currently under development).  She could've been president of my fan club  :lol

apparently that's a common saying in the netherlands.

btw, you made a good choice not adding her.  that would not have worked out well.
Title: Re: facebook minidrama!
Post by: recursivelyenumerable on June 12, 2008, 05:12:35 PM
I doubt it would really have been a big deal either way, though.

facebook rules:

-don't add children, even if they're your friends' siblings
-don't add family members
-tell people irl you don't have a facebook

:bow

"people I know well or find interesting" is a better rule.

the easiest thing to do is to just not friend her back. don't reject her, but don't actually do anything.
Title: Re: facebook minidrama!
Post by: recursivelyenumerable on June 25, 2008, 08:04:48 PM
upon reflection, I think the whole thing is probably mostly a sort of prank she is playing on my sister.  at any rate, I finally succumbed to continued pressure and added her.  my career as teen heartthrob begins now.  I hope my publicists' Photoshop skills are up to it.
