    Facebook is destroying relatinships faster than anything else in the history of man.

    People are destroying relationships. Facebook just makes it public.

    Exercise your delete friend button. Both on Facebook and irl.

    well said

    You're adults. Get the eff off Facebook and work out the drama somewhere else.

    I hate Facebook so much sometimes.

    Why does Facebook make people act like teenagers?
    Walk away from the drama and focus on your life and your daughter.

    I was in a relationship for almost 3 years. My SO was not faithful. I never caught him or anything except when I was pregnant ( approx 3-4 months) I walked in on her walking out of the bathroom at our house while I wasn't home. Of course I suspected something, but was never confirmed. Well he would tell her he was leaving me, and etc. He pledged himself to me. Well She finally got smart ( though I did not & stayed with him for the sake of our daughter) and she got over him, we became really good friends after that. Well me & him have broken up ( for good) despite our daughter. Well he called his ex and cried on the phone with her for like 30 minutes, of course she called me to tell me this, some drama has started because I changed my relationship status from in a relationship to single. So what, well all my friends really didn't like him and were all excited & stuff, well someone told him, or showed him what was going on. I never said anything bad about him, my friends did and one was his ex. So he proceeded to write "&^%^& all you haters you can only hurt someone so much before its my turn." Then following this he wrote " Ex's g/f name here, your just mad that ____(me) left me & you couldn't, I left you, so ha." She found out and wrote this WHOLE LONG response on her fb page to kind of spite him and said basically that she was better off without him and him leaving her was the best thing that ever happened, because she's with a man she loves dearly, has a baby with him, etc. Well idk if he saw it but someone commented on his post that he shouldn't have written something like that because its immature & he replied it's going to be funny when her man finds out that she was messing around with him around her birthday ( im assuming this was last year not this year)

    Now, do I say something to both of them about this matter, or do I let it go and let them continue this Facebook war. And do I finally breakdown and ask her woman to woman what happened between them?
    I have one question:

    Why did you even bother hitting the enter key just for those last two sentences? It was such a wonderful run-on paragraph up until then.

    I wouldn't do it. The biggest mistake women make is letting the other woman know you are so vulnerable to ask questions about your man. He cheated...point blank period. And there's not anything the other woman can say to me to explain either of their positions.

    I would follow the drama and save the immature emails. They can be used as evidence in court if he ever tries to get custody. That being said, don't post anything that can be used against you. Before you write anything on fb that could affect your child, ask yourself if the statements would be helpful for the child to read when he/she is older. If it would be hurtful, don't post it.

    It was extremely helpful in destroying my relationship with my sons mother. Though to be fair, it just made it easier for her. 'Where there's a will, there's a way' certainly was her motto for a good long while.

    Stay out of it, and ditch her as a friend. She never really was your friend in the first place it seems to me. If she was wouldn't have been with your man behind your back.

    Personally, I would delete BOTH of them from as friends from facebook and make your account friends only so they can't see what you post. I understand he is the father of your child so you probably want to maintain some contact with him, but you can do that over the phone. If he is still your facebook friend, it will be tempting to look at his profile which can just stir up bad feelings. Also, he might start posting nasty things on your wall too. Remove the temptatation for both of you. I had a similar situation with my ex and his new girlfriend. I felt sooo much better once I removed them, it was like a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders. Facebook is a great tool for staying connected, but don't let it control your life.

    Set a good example for your child and don't worry yourself with petty drama. Hold your head high and be a strong woman. Leave the BS behind you.

    **Oh and don't bother asking her what went on, it's not going to make anything better. Leave the past in the past and focus on the future, things you can change.

    Very wise response young lady.

    Why do I feel like I just stepped back into High School?

    I think judgeing the OP as immature is unfair. She is obviously hurting. Breakups can be both physically and emotionally exhausting. We all know, we've all had one. Sometimes our emotions just override our rationale. She is obviously emotionally charged and just looking for some advice. No need to judge!

    this is going to sound snarky.. and its not meant to be.. but read your post out loud to yourself. the whole thing. then take a moment and answer this question: are you an adult? because if you are, then you need to remove yourself from high school drama and keep your chin up and your self respect high.

    I think you should buy a webcam.
    Then send your kid to a babysitter.
    Invite them both over to talk things over but don't tell the other.

    Let us watch.

    I say all this kind of **** does is sour life. You're better off forgetting about him and whatever drama he brings, whether or not it concerns you or some other girl. Just keep him in your life as your daughter's father and nothing else.

    I have had a Facebook account for about 6 years.... apart from some tagged photos where I look a little drunk, there's nothing crazy on my page... It's not Facebook, its people...

    Have some self-respect, cut them both out, find something else to fill your time.

    They were already together before but you forgave her and she became your best friend. And he's your ex. So, your only connection to him now is your daughter. Whether you like it or not, he and she can date who they want. Ask if you want to know the answer, but even though it sucks it really isn't your business. Just ditch her as your friend for being like that and keep your relationship with him solely about your daughter.

    Last thing: Get out of the high school drama and be a good mommy!!!

    JERRY! JERRY! JERRY!
