    I just logged onto FB and one of my facebook friends posted, "Why are husbands such a pain in the ass?"  No indication of any joking.  I get that sometimes they can be, but that is do disrespectful.  I would be utterly humiliated if FH wrote something similar on FB. Vent over.

    Ugh. I would be really upset if my fiance aired dirty laundry like that on a website like Facebook rather than just talking to be about whatever the issue was.

    Wow, that's really passive aggressive and inappropriate. You know they are going to fight tonight!

    I see posts like this from friends all the time.  I can't imagine what they are thinking.  And then two weeks later I see a post that says "It's husband week.  If your husband is your best friend and love of your life, copy and paste this post."  Umm..yeah....right....

    Yeah, a college aquintance posted on FB a couple of weeks ago how underappreciated she feels in her relationship and how her husband expects her to do the majority of the work in terms of taking care of their kids.

    Yikes, I was embarressed just reaidng that! I hope I always have the insight to go talk to my husband instead of posting TMI on FB!

    I always feel embarassed when people make those sorts of posts.  You just know any follow up comments are going to be used later on in the inevitable screaming fight.  ("Oh, yeah?  Well Bobby said you're a d*** who doesn't know how good he has it!")

    That's terrible. I'd be devastated if FI posted something like that. I'm his #1 fan, and he's mine. We keep that attitude alive along with open communication and it makes our lives awesome.

    My trashy cousin makes posts about her BF's drug use, his cheating, and then posts things about what great love making they had.  I don't even know how to handle her!

    I think a lot of women like to trash their husbands because it makes them feel like they have some sort of power.  I've had "friends" that I have distanced myself from because I got so sick of the husband bashing whenever the girls got together.

    I know a girl (actually the same one who posts about her child's illnesses and bowel movements) who posted about how her husband had spent all of their wedding gift money and didn't understand how to handle money and how she didn't want to deal with him right now.  She said more but I can't remember all of it.  People were like "I'm pretty sure he doesn't want your business broadcasted on Facebook" which led to her saying she didn't care but taking it down anyway.  I don't understand this either.  I know I'd be upset if my fiance was posting bad things about me on Facebook.

    I have a friend whose husband posted on facebook that having a wife was worse than having ass cancer...in exactly those words.

    Two responses to that post:

    "Unsubscribe" and "I blame it on their wives." 

    I am amazed at some of the things other people have said. It's so sad.

    @redbullfanatic: That's what I said. Even more so, after SHE took him out to dinner that night. After that I stopped feeling bad for her and wanting to hurt him.

    I have friends that are the same way. They talk about how horrible their spouses are, and then talk about personal matters that shouldn't be discussed. My cousin and his wife recently divorced and they both were posting status updates along the way about how horrible the other person was and how glad they were that they didn't have to see them anymore...

    Some things should just be private.

    Do I think it's okay to trash your husband? No, not at all.

    But am I precluding the possibility that sometime in the marriage I will REALLY feel like trashing my husband?

    No, not at all.

    social networking rears its ugly head yet again.  I go through the following analysis before posting anything on facebook: would I tell every last one of my "friends" this in person, to their face?  If the answer is no, I don't post it. 

    Of course, I'm not a dumbass.

    it's venting, without the convenience of anonymity. even if their so's deserved the rant, i think it'd be pretty embarassing to post it for all the fb community to see. :P airing dirty laundry indeed!

    I would never trash my sweetheart in front of anyone, ever.  I have a fb friend who talks about CPS taking her kids away.

    My cousin announced to everyone on fb that her husband kept walking out on her and kept disappearing. Then they were in love. Then they were moving away from here and all the stupid people and then he was laid off from his job so they have to stay here for now.

    Or there was the time she un-friended her mom and told everyone that they were no longer speaking because they got into a fight over $200 the mom owed her and then proceeded to list all the bad things her mom has done to her throughout her life, like kicking her out and forcing her to move in with her the guy who is now her husband. And that her mom would not be a part of her or her daughter's life from now on. The next week they were friends again and talking about how much they loved each other.
