I had no plans to post this, but since we're talking about Myspace...

My mother went to lunch with my ex's mother. Yes, it's kind of weird, but even the guy's mother doesn't like him. Yeah, he's that much of a jerk. Anyway, after they went to lunch my mother looked him up on Myspace & told me. So naturally I got curious & looked him up. The weird thing is that just looking at his picture grossed me out, & he was just standing there in a suit.

I was doing well to forgive him, but just seeing his picture reminded me of how repulsive he is to me. And apparently, he's loosing his popularity among his closest family members, because of his arrogance & entitlement issues. I have to say it feels good... kind of an "I told you so" for me.

Ok, I'm done. Thanks for letting me get that out.

When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the Earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor.

Ok I was totally against myspace, mainly because I don't know how to work it. But I did just join somehow, under an assumed name, so that I could fan-girl Bret M. in Rock of Love 2. I am so ashamed.-!

My ex wife and I had a fair amount of pain and anguish during our divorce. I got to the point that I lived by the golden rule: "If you don't have anything nice to say, just don't say anything." Yet we shared a child who has grown up into an amazing young lady who we are both proud of. It took us both to do it and (wow this is strange saying this) but her husband, my daughters step father, had a role to play in raising such a great child.

I also think about all the various ladies I have dated over the years. Some of them I am glad I don't have anything more to do with, others I do sort of miss their freindship. This year I am going back to a High School class reunion. I will get to meet my high school sweetheart who I was engaged too. My daughter will be with me for a bit at that event. I think its going to be great for her to see a little bit of her dad's past.

Then I think of the other girls I have dated -- I believe I stay in touch with one of them. The old saying "they are an ex for a reason is true" although they had a big part in forming the character of "me." For the most part, they were wonderful ladies, but a few ummmm. Which says a lot about me -- if we date or are involved with someone that is wrong, do we continue the same path or change the future? So that we don't end up with hatred and anger?

Yeah, I think I will be much more picky about relationships in the future based upon the last ex gf -- but I don't think thats a bad thing.

I used to have a myspace, along with alot of my friends. I'm in my late 20's, and most of my friends from highschool are completely addicted to the myspace thing, and kinda got me into it for a long time too. Until I started seeing how people use it to attack each other and call themselves "myspace celebrities". Wow, that's dumb lol. So I stopped using for much, only friends and family that I couldnt contact any other way. Then I met my fiance .... and he absolutely HATES myspace. I guess BM used it to cheat on him, so he is completely against it. I've checked hers out, and it really is hilarious, same crap on there except she talks about how much she still loves him and he was hers first yada yada. Whatever heffer.

My ex has one too, and when I saw it, disgust. No lie, I felt sick. Every time I see this man I have NO idea why I married him much less dated him. He posted about how important his kids are to him and what a wonderful devoted Christian father he is, which is the exact OPPOSITE of who/what he is. His fiance has her page private because it shows what they are REALLY like lol. At least we get a chuckle out of it.

I have a myspace page but I am not addicted like some others including the psycho BM. I got introduced by my younger sister (she's in her mid twenties) who has gotten back in touch with friends from high school. I have also done this and think it is kind of neat. Then, psycho got introduced to it through our mutual friend. My page is set to private and so is psychos. So she can make comments on our friends' page that I can see, etc. What she does now is make crappy comments about my FH, change her picture (which is always repulsive--she thinks she so beautiful) and display what a fantastic mother she is. She also changes her heading and makes comments that way to me. The part of her profile I can view is her picture and heading. The last time she changed it she put a picture of her daughter right after she got a haircut and was posing with a smile on her face. The caption said something like how her daughter must be in pain because BM made her cut her hair. This was in response to me and DH e-mailing her b/c she got FSD a haircut even though she did not want one.
My FH does not have myspace but I do--so it was directed at me. I just think that she is an idiot and hopefully any 'normal' friends that view her page can see she acts like a thirteen year old girl, not a mature mother.
Myspace is the perfect place for narcisstic and borderline personalities to show how wonderful they are--that's why BM's, DH's etc. love to use it.

I LOVE it for a way to track down my old theatre contacts that I have lost touch with. I think it can be an excellent networking tool. I have a facebook for the same reason as some people are on there instead. I think I even ended up with a xanga that I haven't really used. I hate to have all of these, but it's proven invaluable for keeping in touch with people I need to keep up with. I have a youngh theatre friend I always said would end up on SNL and I just found her on myspace. She's been doing comedy at Carolines on Broadway. Another young theatre friend of mine is doing his masters at Harvard. I want to follow these kids and get excited for them to be living their dream!

Plus as soon as my play's done I will be enlisting some of them to be in it.

So I think as long as you don't get so into all the little blogging stuff (updating your mood, complaining about celebrities, constant quizes and forwards- junk like that) they can be cool.

HOWEVER, my kids may not have one

Peace, love, and red wine

Hello, my name is BB, I'm 36 and I still have a Myspace account.

Worse yet, I actually keep it up to date! I know there should be an age limit, but I have found so many old friends through it that I keep it - it's a great way to keep them up to date on my life as it changes and the person I am now vs. high school/college, whatever - plus I have some "penpals" (God, NOW I'm dating myself...) from around the world and I've loved doing that ever since elementary school when they actually were PEN pals.

BM found my Myspace and read my blogs and browsed all of my pics and tried to post snotty comments about me and DH (glad I require approval). I just deleted them and, though I admit I've seen hers, I've NEVER sent her a comment or message. Sad old bat.

I did however try to strike up a relationship with the SD via Myspace - I've never met this person face to face so I thought this might be an innocuous way to introduce myself and let her know that her dad and I do pay attention and care what happens in her (albeit majorly screwed up) life. The exchange ended with her telling me to get the f*ck away from her dad, that he doesn't love me, that she'd tell him to leave me and he'd listen to her, that he is just using me and, the icing on the cake, she called me "sum stupid ho." Sweet girl.

So now I just play with my penpals and old school chums. It was revealing to the DH though, to see his darling angel's site full of Playboy bunny logos and a treatise on her favorite "positions." Gave it to him straight from the horse's mouth.
