Funny Facebook Unfriending

Of course. Is that lame? Sure. Is a polite question grounds for violence? Maybe if you didn't live in a modern society.

But if it helps you feel like a badass, sure go for it.

He never threatened violence. He was suggesting that if he ever pulled that shit off in real life with people, it can be the fastest way to get a punch in the face. Guess what, cops will sweep it under the rug and arrest the person for stalking if it was that obsessive.

Modern Society or not, it's not acceptable ANYWHERE. Hell, I'm sure in Texas, people get shot for this under Castle Law if on their property and I'm from Washington State.
 
Making trouble with another man's wife? Wow, imagine if someone smiles at her in some public place!

LOL, I wonder if she'll see this.

"Wow, honey, thanks for making sure a distant acquiantance of mine knows we're not friendly and you're threatened enough to craft a response."

Wives are not employees or like children, not without choosing that.
 
My god, how does everyone read this as some misogynistic, roid-fueled, raging reply?

If anything the tone was somewhat humorous, yet at the same time letting the guy know he is way out of line.

Why in god's name would you directly message someone you HAVE NEVER TALKED TO BEFORE OR MET and ask them to intercede on your behalf with their significant other? The fact that you are so desperate to get back in contact is weird, whether you're secure, insecure, manly, wussy, metro or wtfever.

You sure have a wide definition for violence there! Hopefully nobody gives you the finger for cutting them off while on the road. That's a clear cut case of assault right there! :rolleyes:

Deleted a dude from my friends list because he couldn't quit being a smartass about anything. Dude turns around and removes all my toons from the World of Warcraft guild we were in. :D

Some people take that site way to damn seriously.

They take Facebook too seriously, but WoW players don't take the game too seriously?! :D

I'd say the husband knows more or thinks he knows more than he lets on. Maybe his wife is the flirtatious type or has cheated in the past and the husband is sick of it. I'd be giving a WTF type of response, too.

Of course, the IT manager thing sounds familiar. Except I'm just a lowly admin. After it happens, you kind of turn into an asshole if it even sounds like it's going to happen again.

The husband did the right thing, in my opinion. He doesn't sound like he overreacted. It was just a WTF, dude.
 
The amount of limpwristed feminazi's in this thread is disturbing. If my wife unfriends someone on Facebook and they send me a sad sob story about what they could have done to merit it, I'm going to treat them like a dipshit too. Hell, it's a whiney bitch move to ask the friends of a person that unfriended you why they did it let alone the husband.
 
So REAL men solve their problems with their fists?
Click to expand...

Maybe you're not married?
Maybe you're not inclined to react in a similar fashion if some dipshit you don't know messages you about your wife?

I would never lay a finger on my wife or children, but I would not hesitate to kick this knucklehead's ass down the street if the situation was right.:D

You ever watch the discovery channel? Nearly every show that talks about animal behaviour shows animals fighting each other to protect what they cherish and value. Now just because they win the first round, it doesn't mean they've won forever, so they keep fighting and become increasingly aggressive with each other to keep their prize.

Human beings are the EXACT same. We choose to mask our natural animal instincts with reason because we have huge brains and we have developed communicational skills. But at the end of the day when we feel that what we have is being threatened we ACT with threats of violence or violence itself.

The husband on Facebook is just simply expressing his disgust with another male in what he feels like a threat towards his wife. I see no immaturity there, he is simply acting upon his instincts as a male and an animal to defend what he believes he has earned.

I don't understand how not wanting bitch-ass men messaging you about why your wife unfriended them is being an "unthinking primate". Your argument seems to be formed on the basis that there is nothing wrong with this type of behavior. Are you surprised that people have made the assumptions about you that they have?

Mind if I throw your logic back in your face? People are making assumptions about the guy without knowing anything. The husband included. Maybe, just maybe, the guy knows better than to ask the husband if he was truly trying to hit on his wife. You think? I mean.. c'mon, you guys should have figured this out a while ago.

I'm quite certain my girlfriend isn't going to dump me for some creep or any other guys. If she has problems with a certain guy constantly bothering her and decides to tell me about it, then yeah I just might tell the dude to go take a hike.

Internet rage - it's not as cool as you think.
 
1st off, that man's response wasn't a threat. Anyone who thinks it is needs a reality check.

2nd. Any man who contacts me out of the blue and starts talking friendly about my wife and my wife has never mentioned him before is immediately under suspicion as either a weirdo or a stalker.

3rd. As a non-pacifist, I believe his response was quite reasonable and I would have had a similar response.

4th. Respect. I don't care how nicely you phrase something, there are things you don't ask other people about about, especially strangers. If you're one of these people that believes there's no black and white, only shades of gray, you're in for a rude awakening once you step out from behind the computer screen and enter the real world. Most people will shug something off until you start prying into their personal family life.

5th. Real men DO look out for their family. If you don't believe it, there's plenty of religious material, social precident, historical reference (there's a reason women still take their husbands family name, and no it's not about ownership) and legal precident that says otherwise. You can deny it if you want, but it basically amounts to men having a responsibility to their family to provide them a safe and prosperous environment in which to live. If you don't want to or can't provide your wife and kids with that, don't be surprised if she takes the role herself and eventually figures out she doesn't really need you and/or doesn't respect you. You can see examples of this everyday. It's sad that too many men and women in our society think equality of the sexes equals anarchy of the sexes.
 
After reading that i came to 2 simple conclusions.

1. The unfriended guy is really pathetic.

2. The husband knows something about this guy, his wife, was simply having a bad day or have some security issues to deal with.

The question alone, while pathetic, was nothing to feel like punching someone in the face.

Amen on all 5 points.

The guy was just looking out for his wife for chrissakes. Basically the guy's wife told dipshit to leave her alone and instead of doing that, dipshit goes to her husband????

The guy is a poster boy for screwed up, weirdo, stalker dipshittiness

He didn't threaten him personally. He just gave him some cold advice.
I would have told him fuck off

^This. Statement was not a threat, but an indication to the original sender that this is not proper behavior. He was alluding to this is a taboo thing to do in real life and NOT a polite question. You would not ask this question in person because it would be awkward / impolite.

But in this case it isn't actually awkward and impolite because that's what Facebook is for. It removes the personalization of relationships, hence analogies to real-life doesn't apply either; Facebook is just an interpretation of reality but is not necessarily a part of it. That's what makes Facebook such a huge hit.

+1 - That is unacceptable behavior, period.

My wife used to get calls/e-mails/IMs from a guy who was once a student of hers back when she was a teacher. She wanted it to stop, asked him to stop, tried ignoring him - no dice. It got worse and worse until I had to threaten to come and find him and make it stop. There are some fucked up people out there and easy access to others via electronic communication is a real enabler of their mental illness. When people act inappropriately, actively dealing with the problem, rather than passively hoping it will fix itself, has always provided the best results for me.
 
I dont' see anything wrong with the husband's reply. as others said, it wasn't a thread. Just a warning that isn't something that you want to do. Also don't see where people get that the husband knows something about his wife and this guy. I think that he doesn't is partly why he responded the way he did. Some random stalker comes out of nowhere wanting to know why his wife (who the guys hasn't seen since grade school) won't be his friend anymore. First off, if i was the husband first thing that would come to mind is what has he been saying / doing that makes him think he said or did something wrong that my wife would stop talking to him. Also if he is coming to me, i'm guessing he already tried talking to my wife and she won't respond. Everything about the guy screams weirdo stalking my wife. On top of that he was pretty tame in his response. told the guy he doesn't know, his wife never talked about him. Then informed him that asking a guy why his wife won't talk to him isn't going to go over very well with some men. having mixed friends is fine, but when one of those guys starts having a breakdown because your wife wont' be his freind anymore you have to start to worry. But at no point in time did he actually say he was going to hit the guy, just that going up to a person's husband to ask why their wife won't be their friend when they have never meet isn't going to go over with some guys. Has nothing to do with being inmature, it is about protecting your wife / girlfriend from some weirdo on the internet.
 
Threads like this make me realize I'm not as much of a dork that I thought I was.

Seriously, some of you guys need to get out of your mother's basement. Or hell, even make eye contact with a lady.

This.

Minus wall of text :D.
 
I think the husband was being a dick, Matt ___ phrased his question in an appropriate manner so I don't see why there would be a problem. Maybe this husband is overprotective. Then again, we don't have all the info so we can't say for sure.
 
There is no way to phrase that question in an appropriate manner. It is impossible. It astounds me how many people can't grasp this.

"Why can't I be friends with your wife?" My answer would either be to piss off ant or "I don't know, why don't you search for your ballsack in about 10+ years and ask her yourself?".


Anyone who asks someone else why someone related unfriended them on a retarded social networking website has zero balls, confidence, and as a male is probably just hoping that one day they will get to sleep with them :rolleyes:

Anyone who denies this... well... just doesn't know men.

Lighten up Francis, the reply was completely tame and full of good advise on how to not get punched in the face. The fact that you and Mathew don't understand such a fundamental concept about human interaction makes me worry about the safety of your face.

You just brightened my day.

On a related note, how do you know you've been unfriended? I found this out months ago (and posted it on my FB page), Facebook has a feature that unintentionally rats you out. I logged in one day and noticed a friendly reminder that I should "reconnect" with so-and-so. Sure enough, I checked my friends list and that bastard had unfriended me!!!! :D


Now I know every person that has unfriended me....all three of them.
Click to expand...

I laugh every time someone gloats about doing something manually. Talk about taking the hard way.

PS: I've gotten "reconnect with this person!" messages from Facebook about people still on my friends list. Your method is a bit flawed.

I dont really think the husband threatened the dude. I also dont think violence is a good thing. However, if some guy is harassing my wife, or any of my family for that matter, I will not hesitate to go into beast mode. I also dont think this is a "man" thing, this should be for any living being.

I only accept friend requests from people who I would say "hi" to in real life. I also hide/delete people who play those crap games, or post pictures of their meals/weather/pets/babies, and the worst for me is bible quotes or quotes in general. Seriously, if I wanted to read quotes, I would have bought that shitty calendar thing too. Lastly, fuck facebook, if it wasnt for the few friends/fam whom I only communicate with via fb, I would happily delete my account.
