Do you have your partner's family on Facebook?

[Anonymous]

My boyfriends family added me on Facebook,I can't not accept.But I feel like I have to hide my statuses,hide drunken photos..I just feel awkward and I'm worried they'll judge me.Some of them I haven't even met.If I hide some of my stuff,it makes me wonder if they'll then notice.I mean there is drunken silly photos of me and friends drunk and being silly,there's probably some old rude stasuses I have and silly wall posts from friends that they may think are rude,but I t's just how me and my friends talk to each other.It's not like I have any slutty photos or anything lol,I'm not like that,I just worry how they will take it..I don't feel like I can freely write stuff on my Facebook now without worrying what they will think.There is one of my boyfriends family members who is really judgmental and we both don't like her,I'm worried she will add me and I reallyyy don't want to add her.Do you have your partners family on Facebook?Do you hide certain photo albums and statuses?Ahh and I think about all the flirty things on my profile from my boyfriend too..>.< it's awkward!

I also don't want to offend my boyfriend with talking about his family member I don't want to add..My Facebook is somewhat personal >.<

Of course they're just trying to see what kind of person you are! And now with FB it's so easy, so for these types of "curious" families it's kind of difficult haha

Since you're just dating, I don't think it's necessary at all for you to add them. Even if they get upset, you're in a relationship with him, not his family. Don't feel bad about denying friend requests, because it's your own profile and you shouldn't have to feel worried about posting what you want.

Let your boyfriend know, so that if they come to him saying you have something to hide or whatever, he can explain to them.

I already accepted a few of their requests and got a new one..so I can't not add one and not the other lol.Maybe I should put them on a seperate list so they can't see everything?I don't know lol :/.It would be unfair not to add them all..

[sfauo]

I don't have a FB, but yeah if you can do that, making it so they can't see everything, then that'd be best for you.

Who's already been added, is it like his parents? Siblings? Probably shouldn't have to worry relatives other than that, don't think his third cousin would add you lol

[Asker]

One of his parents,an aunty and his brother...And I haven't met them yet lol oh and a few others added me

[sfauo]

haha haven't met them huh, well at least they know you're friendly!

[Asker]

yeah not yet lol but apparently they really want to meet me,I spose that's good?Haha..I've met like 2 or 3 members of his family though heh

are we starting to all see the downside of Facebook? just thinking...

[Asker]

lol oh I know there's already downsides haha..

[baliguy11]

there ya go. the friends and family FB plan gone bad. much as I admire the social media idea. the reality of FB... well I do not want Mr. "new Billionaire" Z-berg to decide my information control system. But that is just me...

[Asker]

haha oh well think I'll just have to be careful with who sees what on my profile

[baliguy11]

or just a little house cleaning on the profile. good luck

[christini]

Yes, I do. I have nothing to hide on my Facebook, as I'm the type of person that likes to keep my personal stuff truly personal. Therefore, it's absolutely clean.
