The dark side...

As with most of the web-aware, I have a profile on Facebook. I seek and collect friends; I post on walls. I don't really have time to participate in the fun stuff like adding the applications, vampire related activities and/or join the various groups I am invited to join, but I try to stay current. It has been fun... until today.

Today I was brusquely rejected, or rather my invitation to become a friend was ruthlessly rejected by someone I thought would appreciate the invitation. I found out this morning, and immediately commenced the five steps of grief. Yes, I may be a bit of a drama queen here, but it is MY blog. Anyway, I went into denial. No, no, how can this be? I cannot be rejected. He must have clicked on the wrong button. Or maybe it was another person with the same name. How can this be? (I get repetitive when in denial). Why would anyone reject a Facebook friend invitation? This went on for a few hours, as I then progressed to anger. Prickhead. You broke up with me so how can you be angry with me??! Dufus. And that's the reason we broke up. Idiot. This didn't last long as I can never stay angry for long. I started thinking that if I stopped thinking of exes as prickheads and dufuses I may have a better chance of beating my brother's 300 gazillion friends (How does he do this? All his exes are his friends..). Post milliseconds of bargaining (I figured God would have more than enough on his plate to bother with my offer of a deal), I started feeling depressed about the rejection. Was it such a bad breakup that prickhead would reject my web induced olive branch even today when we have presumably matured. Am I such a bad person, so thoroughly despised? Not many people are despised in this world..unliked, hated, but not despised. And one has to be despised to be rejected like this.

And this went on until about lunchtime. So after much consideration and reflection, I finally accepted that some people, especially Mr Fell of the ugly tree and broke every branch, will remain the dick heads that they are. I have moved on to bigger and brighter (Take THAT you friend rejector!) and I should not waste another minute on this person..as those minutes are better spent looking for other potential friends.

Babes, you are still a humorous intellectual even when it comes to facebook friendship analysis! (har har). I am totally not addicted to facebooking, I feel rather abnormal:-)

Agree with you, some people will remain dickheads, losers, back-stabbing two-faced cows/pigs...
