Yup.

Do tell. What was your rationale behind the move?

Well for personal and privacy reasons I always had my pictures on private for certain friends only, even when I had guys on my facebook list.

So there was this girl on my husband's facebook who would always make flirty comments on his wall, send him msgs etc. She (and her sister) are both overly annoying and obsessive when it comes to my husband (even my brother in law noticed this) so I asked the hubby to delete them both. He said he couldn't because they've all been friends for a long long time and it would look bad (which I agreed with) so I said 'fine, delete all the girls off your facebook and I'll delete all the guys off mine.'

It wasn't too hard for me because most of the guys on my list were either Islamicans or from study groups/classes that I never really spoke to outside of class....basically people i didnt really know. I kept all my guy cousins and brother in law on there though.

i curtailed the friends on my list. most guys are my guy cousins and some my hubby's closest friends on fb, i come from a big family, m'A!

and i've also have my photos and other stuff limited to my friends only.

Now I take it you have brothers only now, in deference to your wife. Was that at her request?

i dont think he's married. lol.

If I'd gotten married overnight, I would have taken my time updating FB cause I'm lazy

we didn't... i actually kind of stole all of his friends..

but it doesn't really matter for us... almost 95% of the people on our friends lists are limited anyway. and we don't really put pictures up much either. and i handle the flirty "sisters" in a different way. i add them to my friends list and then i write on their walls and introduce myself. they usually get the message after that. otherwise i'll leave a really gay sappy lovey dovey message on the husband's wall for everyone to see

generally though we don't have any problems because i'm cool with his guy friends and he's cool with my girl friends. and everyone knows each other and their limits alhamdulillah.

lol, that's cute! I like your method of dealing with the flirty girls . I added the problem person to my list too but that was around the same time we agreed to delete ppl of the opposite gender....then she began emailing him (). Soon after he got sick of facebook and got rid of it altogether .

i was wondering that too...mr. jellymill woulda been suuuper embarrassed if i'd ever done that

i remember when one of my younger cousin's guy friend tried adding me on fb. i rejected once and said i was too old for him haha but he insisted so i felt pity for him and let him add me. when i told my hubby..he was like wth? and it happens that we actually saw the kid at my cousin's graduation party and my cousin introduced his friend to me and my hubby. and hubby was like, so you like my wife huh? and the poor kid was all .

I can't see my notifications anymore. I'm worried FB is preparing for the massive restyle that is scheduled for sometime this month.
