TO HATE THE WAY FACEBOOK WORKS?

I blocked my ex and his mum as advised to do so, so what does he do... goes and gets another account in someone elses name! I just got a message to tell me that i am an unfit and unstable mother as i HAD pnd, I am now fine however. It also says that he will be using this in court, but surely i can argue that he left it 5 weeks before even seeking advice on custody and didnt notify health visitor or social services? How can he have the cheek to call me UNFIT after he was abusive and took all the money for drink and drugs? x

Delete your account?

OldLadyKnowsSantaClaus · 30/12/2011 14:28

Only have as friends people you actually know? Doesn't help if he used such a name, though. :(

What does this have to do with facebook?

You need to speak to a solicitor for advice regarding the court case.

There is no law that everyone on the planet has to have a facebook account

he is a wanker,
nothing to do with FB

If you want to remain on facebook you need to go through your privacy options and start limiting who has access to your page. Be through and ruthless and then you should find that he is unable to annoy you. Then be very careful who you accept as friends.

I'm not on facebook, it's so relaxing. The upside is that because he is being abusive and threatening to you on facebook, you can keep the evidence and show it to the appropriate authorities Wink

You can change your settings on FB so that only FB friends can send you a message. Doesn't stop your ex being a wanker but will stop him contacting you via FB.

I dont think so anymore. I think you can bar certain people from seeing you at all but, you have to know their name. Fancy accepting randoms, though? Confused

Not facebook's fault, and everything to do with him. Get your privacy settings whacked up to the max so only friends can see anything, and you can also set it so that nobody can send you messages as well.

Already done. only those on my friends lists can see me or message me etc. Feels much better. Didnt realise you were allowed more than one account. x
