Ok I know I'm being damned unreasonable but why the hell do I do it?! Can't help myself and then feel really grubby and upset afterwards...

It's not tragic, it's what facebook was invented for. Stalk away! Grin

I wouldn't do it because no outcome could make me feel happier than I did before snooping - if they have become millionaire supermodels that wouldn't make me feel good, and if they seemed to be having awful lives I would feel sad for them. And anything in the middle would just be dull - I have enough to do keeping up with actual friends' babies/new kitchens/engagements without getting additional information overload on someone I don't care about!

Here's an idea; block her, then if you ever get the urge to Facebook stalk her again you'll have a moment to think about it before you unblock her.

Then you might realise that it's madness and no good can come from it.

I have looked up some of my exes but more than one person with the same name came up and no photo so none the wiser Grin.

OP yanbu, it's an understandable human instinct to be curious and methinks others are being a tad superior hard on you. Get it out of your system, after all there is only superficial info to be gained from fb, but I for one do not blame you for looking for some background to fill in the blanks. FB exists and so there is a huge temptation to look imo. Lots of people do it but most would deny that they do!

Am I weird that I don't find it a huge temptation to do this? I can see it when first dating, maybe, but not after marriage.
