Facebook Bullying
I had to share something that happened on Facebook today.
Here goes…I would love for you to give me your take on this so feel free to comment.
Early this morning I received an email from someone I didn’t know. The email went something like this.
“Are you in the habit of befriending married men? Joe (not his real name) is my husband so remove him from your list!!!!
Here is my response:
I run a business and “friend” anyone who requests a connection. I have a huge data base and it makes no difference to me if someone is married or not as I use Facebook for business purposes.
I’m sorry that his friend request to me has upset you but if you are uncomfortable with it you really should be discussing this with your husband and not me.
Wow…I couldn’t believe that she thought is was ok to address this issue with me, a complete stranger rather than confronting her husband about the issues.
I kinda felt bullied by this women. Almost as if she would come and beat me up if she knew where I lived and didn’t remover her husband from my friend list!
Navigating social media can be tricky especially when you use it for business and are in the habit of “friending” everyone.
Hope this bully leaves me alone and any other women her husband has friended recently.
Have you ever been bullied on Facebook? Got any other humorous stories you would like to share? I would love to read them.
