I also

invited someone accidentally to a facebook group which was totally outside that person’s demographic-

  • think sending a Facebook group invite to a 70 year old for something they’re likely to have NO knowledge of or interest in!

THEN next morning o woke up to a status on Facebook from that person
“Thanks for inviting me to your group”

Grin

I did this as I was falling asleep with phone in hand

One of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever done was writing the name of the person I had a crush on in what I thought was the search bar in my half asleep state and I’d actually written it as my status. I still cringe about it now, 15 years later. 😬😬🤦🏼‍♀️

🤣🤣🤣

I’ve ABSOLUTELY done this and - let’s face it - a physical change happens doesn’t it ? Your heartbeat goes through the roof !!

My toddler has sent out a few friend requests, probably to the bemusement of the people who accept!
