    My parents have a joint account just because my dad would never bother to get his own but he likes to scroll through Facebook. Same with my sister in law... I think it's odd.

    I suppose if they are mainly using Facebook to share pictures of them and the kids with family and friends then I dont see the problem. I have a couple of friends with joint accounts and thats basically all they do on Facebook.

    Agreed, I know a few couples who do something similar. Neither are super active on Facebook, and when I do interact with them on that platform, it's only to look at their travel pics, or make plans for a dinner party, or whatever. Stuff they'd end up doing jointly anyway. So I get it. At this point, my fiance and I might as well have a joint account too... we're friends with the same people, and most of the photos I post are of stuff we do together anyway. I hardly use FB enough for it to matter either way.

    This is why I don't want to get married anytime soon

    This and potentially being called "hubby"


    Brb going to throw up

    Why even bother getting married at all? Just do one of those long term partner type relationships. there is no reason anyone "has" to get married.

    My daughter and her husband do this as well as one of my older friends who just got married last year.. Both of them are married to cheaters so I am sure it has something to do with that.. plus both females do most of the posting.. when the guys get on and say: "I love my wife"...I'm pretty sure it's the females posting those comments.

    That's pretty creepy if true.

    I wasn't going to but the *hubby* suggested we go to the courthouse on our 10 year anniversary the week before hand, so I figured why the hell not. :tongue: The good news is it's virtually impossible to forget our anniversary.

    I have those friends, too. My husband's cousin is always talking about how awesome his wife is on Facebook, but according to him, he hasn't been on Facebook in two years. The only reason it's still active is so his wife can log on and send herself game requests, so it became pretty obvious what was happening, lol.

    for whatever reason, the joined facebook account thing with your partner annoys the crap out of me.

    I would never do that. My husband and I have our own lives, friends, interests, thoughts, opinions. I find it a little odd. But, I guess if it's just a family page to share photos and stuff.

    Similar with my friend's with joint accounts, history of cheating and/or females doing most of the posting.

    I love my husband, but we don't get all up in each other's Kool Aid like that.

    I think it is very weird and does smack of lack of trust. I am admin for a large gaming group (over 21k members) and I think it looks strange when I see Arthur N Marther for example. Especially as it is a girly game. I know my husband would get sick of seeing all my game requests and pm's.
    BUT, each to their own I suppose....

    sharing an account is not for me. but to each their own. I have a friend who shares one with his wife because he was not computer savvy and needed help doing things on FB that he wanted to do. But it was confusing because I can't tell who's talking because they don't let you know on any posts or comments who is saying what.

    That's too funny. My husband and I got married on kind of a whim, too, and he's always saying "well, I didn't have anything better to do that day." There's a pretty fine line between I can't live without him and dear God I want to smother him in his sleep for me sometimes, lol.

    Both of my sisters have joint accounts, I dont. One says its out of convienence because my BIL always lost his password and would just log onto hers. lol. The other- her fiancee is super jealous- his words not mine. That's between them.

    My husband and I have seperate accounts because it never occured to us to have joint ones. We have the same friends and family on ours but he doesnt use fb very often anyway. It's a non-issue.

    I dont understand speculating over why people do or do not have joint accounts. I know plenty of people who do, I've never wondered why until I saw so many against it. It seems a lot of people who dont have joint accounts assume the worst about it. Some make wild blanket speculations and assume they are true. I didnt realize you could psychoanalyize a complete strangers entire relationship based on something so mundane. But Im silly like that- I just dont care. Lol
