Have you ever just been chillin' on the fu, doing whatever it is you do on the fu, clicking here or there...
Suddenly you see the name of someone you knew, in the past. Someone who you used to talk to on a daily basis. Someone who you just happend to have had a major falling out with...
You think to yourself, 'I wonder how they're doing?'
So you do the nice thing and go to their page. You follow fubar ettiquete and rate them a 10, and if you're feeling nice you even fan them. Then, out of the kindness of your heart, and your wish for all things peaceful, you send them a friend request with a note that says, "*waves the white flag* Can we be friends again?"
Well, here are my reasons for NOT doing that...
Reason 1: You're suddenly aware of how long people can hold a fucking grudge!
Reason 2: You just might receive a text from your room mates ex, who you really don't care much for (because she was the reason behind the falling out with the person mentioned above), that says something to the effect of, "Your games aren't going to work on so-and-so. He doesn't like you like that and he never did." BLAH BLAH BLAH!
Reason 3: Your friendliness may be misconstrued as "stalking". Even though this was the first time you visited the persons page in 2 years or so...
So I guess what I'm trying to say is this...
When you see a blast from your past, no matter how good your intentions may be, leave it alone...
People live for drama and they will use any excuse to hop on the bandwagon and bring it into your life.
