So someone I have friended from my high school class posted this on Facebook

Posted by oblique (aka kkuphal) Sep 2 '10, 08:50

"Discussing adopting a child...it's not going so good! Dan wants no part of it!! He doesnt seem to understand its our only option!! Im once again at my witts end!!"

Jeez, that's seems overly personal and kinda mean to her man to call him out like that on Facebook

Responses:

"Kilbo's Friend is now single" -- nm - kare Sep 2, 09:11
Couldn't I just knock up some high school girl and keep the baby, honey? -- nm - Mop (220 lbs) Sep 2, 09:02 1
- Dan: "See, adoption's not our *our* option, now is it?" -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Sep 2, 09:04
What have the responses (if any) been so far? -- nm - Don Homer Sep 2, 09:01 18
- A couple pro-adoption comments and others mostly expressing support for her - oblique Sep 2, 09:02 17
  - I imagine that's what she's fishing for. -- nm - Kim Pine Sep 2, 09:04 14
    - Yikes. Now she posted this comment - oblique Sep 2, 09:05 11
      - Take it off the FB board! She's trashing him. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 2, 09:08
      - oh, wow... - znufrii Sep 2, 09:08
      - I can just see the next social gathering "This is my husband, Dan." "Oh, you're the douchebag" -- nm - CrankYanker Sep 2, 09:07 1
        
        More like: "Where's your husband?" "He left me." -- nm - sycor Sep 2, 09:08
      - how appalling. -- nm - Kim Pine Sep 2, 09:07
      - Confession: I am now entertained -- nm - con_carne Sep 2, 09:07 1
        
        me too. Kilbo, keep posting! -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 09:07
      - oh for the love. -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 09:06 3
        
        they seem like a perfect match at this point - nmbLoosilu - Epiphany Sep 2, 09:07 2
        
        far as I know. -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 09:08 1
        
        I count on you and Mara for these questions - Epiphany Sep 2, 09:09
    - because nothing changes a guy's mind like comments from his wife's friends. -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 09:05 1
      - unless he isn't on facebook. -- nm - Don Homer Sep 2, 09:07
  - support as in "Keep trying to change his mind!" or "I wish you both the best"? -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 09:03 1
    - I would hope the second one -- nm - Beaker Sep 2, 09:04
so many exclamation points... -- nm - TFox Sep 2, 09:00
I want more bedroom details.....and pics, and financials before I take a position. - CrankYanker Sep 2, 09:00
This is a matter for family, counseling or Jerry Springer -- nm - con_carne Sep 2, 09:00 2
- and maybe Maury a few months down the road.... -- nm - Beaker Sep 2, 09:00 1
  - Well, we KNOW how that will go...."Dan, you are NOT the father!" -- nm - Maury Sep 2, 09:01
*dislikes this* - HdnAgnda Sep 2, 08:59
But she is at her witts end!! - Epiphany Sep 2, 08:59
wow, totally inappropriate. -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 08:58
whoa, that's way TMI for facebook. -- nm - Andie Sep 2, 08:57
Yeah that's not so good. Welcome to Facebookdome. One couple enters. One couple may not leave. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 2, 08:57
I will gladly stand in for Dan assuming you are good looking...meh, either way I'll do it -- nm - groiny si Sep 2, 08:55 1
- Sadly, this was my first thought -- nm - con_carne Sep 2, 08:55
yeah, not cool all around. - Kim Pine Sep 2, 08:54
and should they really be doing it if he doesn't want any part of it? -- nm - Beaker Sep 2, 08:53 4
- I imagine that's why they're discussing it... -- nm - znufrii Sep 2, 08:57 3
  - sounds like it's not really a discussion, in fact. -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 09:00 1
    - or at least a very short one... - znufrii Sep 2, 09:00
  - yeah, I misread it initially and thought they were further along -- nm - Beaker Sep 2, 08:59
not really facebook is great for peer pressure, its what makes facebook so popular -- nm - Stacy Sep 2, 08:53 19
- What stake do you suppose all her FB friends have in this? -- nm - con_carne Sep 2, 09:06
- I can tell you it wouldn't work with me and would make me angrier if my beloved took that route. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 2, 08:58 2
  - 'Beloved?' What am I? Sits under tree and writes poetry guy today? -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 2, 09:03 1
    - *snickers* - Epiphany Sep 2, 09:06
- ignoring other issues with that post, but..... you think "peer pressure" is a good thing when it about adopting a child? -- nm - Andie Sep 2, 08:58
- You are kidding right? I would be furious if my spouse posted that on Facebook - amoxy Sep 2, 08:57 13
  - yes I know but I've seen divorces and breakups on facebook, adultry, affairs, nothing suprises me anymore -- nm - Stacy Sep 2, 08:59 1
    - which is sort of exactly why you should post things like this. it leads to divorces. -- nm - Andie Sep 2, 09:04
  - peer pressure is what makes facebook popular, amoxy. --nm - Son of Cloverfield Sep 2, 08:59 10
    - ther are articles on it and how farmville type game make so much money...1 million a day. -- nm - Stacy Sep 2, 09:01 9
      - yeah, and that's exactly the same thing as an obviously troubled couple trying to sort out an issue like this -- nm - prayformojo Sep 2, 09:03 8
        
        she is trying to get input from their friends....peer pressure. -- nm - Stacy Sep 2, 09:04 6
        
        what good can possibly come from inviting your friends into your personal fight? -- nm - loosilu Sep 2, 09:06 3
        
        well, it will allow you to do that barn expansion you've been pressured to do -- nm - decline Sep 2, 09:08
        
        I don't think Stacy is saying what she is doing is right, just the why she is doing it part. -- nm - Beaker Sep 2, 09:07 1
        
        exactly -- nm - Stacy Sep 2, 09:10
        
        fyi - people aren't playing farmville because of peer pressure, unless they are twelve. they play it because they want to. -- nm - Andie Sep 2, 09:05 1
        
        the whole basis for the game revolves around peer pressure...help me with this crop, join my farmville, you may think you are in control but - Stacy Sep 2, 09:10
        
        dude, farmville is life! -- nm - decline Sep 2, 09:04
yeah if I were Dan I would not be happy. -- nm - sycor Sep 2, 08:53
