what the title says really..

whether it be you met your current gf/bf or a long lost family member..
how did fb contribute?

with me it was..

after my cousin got killed earlier this year, there was some tributes to him on fb.. and funnily enough it seems as though the whole family has got closer sinse his death.
being able to speak 2 his parents and everyone else is great but the big bonus is..

his daughters mom has got in touch with my mom over fb and said that we can go see them when ever we want because now she lives 5 mins from us, which i know dont sound much but we have never seen her because of how far we lived.. so its a big

:y: :y: :y: to fb lol

sorry for long read but feel free to add your stories :hug:

Started talking to a lot of old friends I met in Calgary, Canada. Before facebook it was emails. Now I can talk to them etc.

what has facebook done for you?

Nothing, hence why i dont use it anymore.

If i want to stay in touch with people i have their email/phone number.

If i dont have their number, i assume that im not interested in staying in contact ...

Got tagged in wank videos and shit pictures. Been added by dickheads that I hate now and hated in school which allows me to tag them on a picture of a piece of shit.

Facebooks done alot.. Made me depressed, made me happy.
I lost my girlfriend of 2 n half years to someone she met on there.. I got in touch with alot of old friends, made a lot of new friends, most of whome id of never spoken to if i was still with my ex.

Facebooks changed me as a person i reckon :)
