I may have said it before but I'm going to say it again. Facebook (and its social equivalents: myspace, bebo, twitter, etc.) is one of the biggest enemies of relationships.
In essence it is the equivalent of that one "friend" you have who can't seem to keep their mouth closed around your significant other and lets hints slip about your past or not-so-squeaky clean present.
Facebook opens the door to all the crazies (if you befriend them) who have always wanted to be with you but maybe never had the guts to say it to your face. Instead they use facebook to send you virtual gifts (teddy bears, balloons, flowers, etc.) and post inappropriate messages on your wall. The problem is, it all becomes public information.
And for anyone in a relationship or trying to have a relationship, it can be very hard to convince someone else that you are not involved with someone who pays $1 everyday to send you a virtual gift.
Plus, I'm not even going to get into how someone with too much time on their hands can facebook stalk you, your exes, and anyone else related to you even with the profile privacy filters.
So, a word to the wise, if you want a meaningful relationship, watch who you befriend and what you do on Facebook.
