so what is the proper etiquette for handling a girlfriend and all your female myspace companions???

recently i got into trouble for adding a girl from work and an ex from high school (8 years ago) who my girlfriend didn't really know about. how do i (a) smooth the situation and (b) keep adding more girls without hurting her feelings. I mean i'm not trying to hook up here or be shady i'm just trying to have friends of both sexes. discuss.

 

Dump your gf and bang as many chicks from myspace as you can!

 

people take myspace too seriously. it opens up a whole new world of jealousy and paranoia.

the end.

 

Your girlfriend is a nut.

 

Is your girlfriend 15?

 

Is your gf 18 years old? Sure seems like it.

 

Too funny, you know that any girl that you want to be friends with really mean you want to them. Who are you kidding?

Also, I think you are about past the age requirement for Myspace. Move along.

 

Just ask her if she would like you to hammer her the same way she's doing it to you.

 

She'll only make a big stink if she's insecure. If its honestly a problem, you two should think about your relationship and where its going.

 

I don't get remarks like this. It makes no sense. Please explain why people think it's just for "kids"? It's rediculous. I use myspace for mostly keeping in touch with old friends that I never get to see and for networking. WTF is wrong with that? Example, take a buddy I have in FL. We never get to hang out but we talk on occasion. It's kind of cool to have a place where you can talk about shit going on in your life, share interests, pictures, etc. with each other without having to talk on the phone. I'm not a big phone person so this works for me. Also, by being on there, I have gotten in touch with many old friends I may have never talked to again if it had not been for myspace.

I used to feel just like you do about it till my little brother talked me into it one day. It's a great place. The only thing I will say negative about it is 1.) It can be dangerous. 2.) The little bulletins people/friends pass around with surveys and stuff are :ghey:.

 

And

 

Yeah, Myspace has its good points, great for keeping in touch and finding old friends/classmates. Sure there are plenty of idiots/pedophiles/attention whores.. but thats how life is.

I dont see the problem.

 

myspace=drama. Point blank.

 

i'd have to agree that myspace is a great tool for keeping in touch with old friends who are scattered around the country. how else you gonna find them yellow pages? i guess she is insecure because all it would take is some dumb comment from one of these girls such as " i think you're a hottie" and it would be on like donkey kong all over again. what a dillema.

 

For you maybe

Never had a problem myself.

Oh and I asked my girlfriend for her opinion on all this..

I quote: "Keep your pimp hand strong"

 

Yep - I think 26 might be a little too old for myspace. On the other hand, your gf needs to get over her problem of trust. You gave her a reason to doubt you before? If not, then tell her to shut it.

 

What's the dilemma? Your gf is immature? She should be glad that girls are calling you a "hottie" and she's your gf.

 

See post #10.

 

this is what i did in your situation. Drop you girlfriend off your friend list and make your profile private. Problem solved. Now ONLY people who are on your friend list can view your myspace page. Ya, I realize a shitstorm will ensue, but mine got over it.

 

What the hell why should she care its just myspace. I have some friends on myspace that I dont even know.

 

I just started poking around on there a few weeks ago, its great. I got in touch with a bunch of old friends. Very cool site.

 

MySpace, Friendster, etc. are good avenues to keep in touch with family and friends. Your gf probably got jealous because she felt threatened. Reassure her that there is no reason to worry because your relationship with these girls is merely platonic.

 

And FT, your girlfriend needs to drop the insecurity or get dropped herself.

 

I wouldn't like a girlfriend putting her old exes on her myspace, but i have jealousy issues.

 

most cross situational advice ever

 

thanks guys. she's fine with it now. i guess she slept on it for a while and decided that she's unreasonable. i mean the friends that i talk to are all married or like 5 states over...anyway...glad to hear some good support from ya'll. thanks.

 

^so did you join the acurazine group on myspace yet?

 

pics first, thread second!

 

exactly what I did, and after some complaining she doesnt mention it. Oh also there is a way for the comments section to not appear when ppl come on your page.

 

tell her myspace will help you find a girl for a threesome

 

My god you people must have alot of time on your hands. I think Myspace is just a free dating service and no way i'd let my gf have an account on there. Its just e-nerds looking for local girls.

 

"'let' my girlfriend?"

"e-nerds?"

you're kidding right?

 

that's just retarted

 

Well maybe thats a little extreme, I'm sure some people do actually use it to find old friends. But, from just about every person i know who has an account and from what ive seen myself its people trying to hook up with local people.

My brother's gf has an account on there, and gets at least 5-7 asshole messages and emails a week from guys that live by her and want to hook up. I just dont see the draw in it if in real life you have enough friends and enough social skills to meet new people away from the computer.

I didnt mean i wouldnt 'let' her because i'm a jealous controlling prick. More because she gets enough attention and shit from guys in real life, no need to put pics online for e-nerds to gawk at. Plus, who has time to really invest into shit like that? Maybe i'm just busier than most people and dont have as hard a time making friends without a computer?

 

If it's just a bunch of e-nerds what do you have to worry about?

 

Anyone with minimal computer literacy can set it up in 20 minutes

 

please give us your myspace page link so that we can see pics of your gf and your ex-gf

 

Its not that I dont have time to set it up, obviously if I'm on here I have time to be on the computer and browse. But alot of people that are on there really put alot of effort and time into who is messgaing them, who is on their friend list, and who they are meeting up with from on there. Just seems like alot of effort that doesnt really add up. Go to a park, join a club, I mean meet real people in the real world.

You guys gotta understand, this is just my opinion. If you really like myspace and connecting with other people online, great for you. I just dont see the draw.

Why does everyone get so defensive when myspace is not loved by someone? Its basically the people version of cardomain, woopity-doo.

 

I don't find you defensive at all. Actually, it might be because I actually know all of the people on myspace BEFORE I ever set it up. Except for the bands. The only reason I've got the bands on there as friends is to easily check the concert schedules from time to time with ease thru their myspace page. I've got all kinds of shit on myspace but it only took me about 30mins to do it once I learned how. Every once in awhile I will make a change here and there (like the background or something) but it only takes me a couple of mins once I know what I want to do with it.

 

werd.. if the girls you adding isn't fugly/busted that means only one thing for all men..
