AIBU?

Airing dirty laundry on facebook

Someone I'm friends with on Facebook, an ex-colleague, has recently split up with her husband as he has left her for another woman.

She's obviously very upset, understandably so, but she has played out the whole sorry ordeal out publicly on Facebook. From an announcement that he is a cheating rat, to pleas for him to come back to her, to drunken pics and rants, and last night, sharing pictures of the ow, with her name and name calling.

She's a lovely woman but I'm so embarrassed for her, she's making herself into the victim and quite frankly making a bit of a fool of herself.

I don't speak to her away from Facebook, but I feel I should say something,to make her realise that this isn't the way to remain dignified. Or aibu? it's probably not my place to say and I'm sure her "real" friends have already tried to talk some sense into her.

Gah! This was me last year when OH left suddenly (didn't find out till afterwards he'd had an affair and DID NOT publish that on FB).

I was hurting and I kind of wanted people to know (was not in a good place mentally).

My mum gave me a right ticking off about it (I am in my late 30s!!) which pissed me off further.

A year on and everything has resolved itself and I do regret it a bit but everyone has crap times and if they thought so was a dick there was the option of deleting me!!Grin
