Increasing numbers of married men in their 30s and 40s...

Being friends with 18 years old girls and then liking all their photos. It seems to be an increasing thing I see on Facebook.

I think this is really inappropriate. It doesn't affect me personally, but if I was the wife of one of these men I certainly wouldn't like it. Also, as the mother of three girls, two of whom are approaching this sort of age, I would be very unhappy if this happened to them.

AIBU?

Most of my friends are work colleagues so of course they're on my FB, they're the ones I socialise with, the same for my DH. I'd have about three friends if it wasn't for work. Linkedin does not feature in my life at all.

I am also quite happy if one of my friends say they like my haircut etc, not much point having it done if no one notices.

I have hidden all my teenaged cousins because I didn't want to know what they were up to. It felt inappropriate somehow. I don't know why a middle aged man would wasn't to know or 'like' an 18 year olds photo. If I was 1, I'd think it was Percy. A 40 year old to an 18 year old might as well be 90!

A lot of pervs people fail to realise that others can see what you've 'liked' if it's set to public... I've been a bit Hmmat my uncle's 'likes' on occasion....

Crikey! Worried about some posts here.
I might say to a husband and wife of group of friends round the supper table that their daughter or son are growing up to be beautiful, handsome or attractive, but I would never go on FB and like a photo of them where they are presenting on their own page.
