Hi guys. So we're on to 404. Why do your friends still have your ex on their social media?

And you might have a totally different opinion than mine and that's okay. But I personally think

that your friends and their boyfriends or girlfriends do not need to be mixing on social media,

period. And I get why younger people may be more likely to do this if you all go to school

together or if you are part of the same friend group prior, stuff like that. But other than that,

it's usually better to keep your friends and your boyfriend or girlfriend separate.

I remember a long time ago I introduced a friend to a guy that I was seeing and right away she

added him to social media and even my other friend's boyfriend that she had also just met

that night. I was so turned off and And needless to say, embarrassed, like, girl,

you just crossed a line that didn't need to be crossed. And adding other people's boyfriends to,

are you for real? And she was younger, but like, damn, it was so cringe. And then the next day, the friend whose boyfriend she had

added actually texted me and said, why is she adding my boyfriend to Facebook? And I was horrified.

It's not like they even knew each other well or had a reason to stay in contact. That need to

collect extra followers at any cost is a level of validation

seeking I never want to be part of. I mean, at least ask your friend if it's okay. Like,

at least, at least do that. Don't just like, um, rod daggett. But even so, just don't do it.

Just don't do it, period.

Don't ask the friend.
