Today I woke up to 2 text messages from a good friend that wrote:
7:07 am: “Really. I didn’t know it took a genius to send a relationship request on Facebook”
7:21 am: “No seriously. I am giving up.”
After laughing at her Facebook frustrations, I asked her to give me her log in and password and I would sign on to her account to request the relationship. Surely someone who works on social media sites all day can figure this out. I signed on and much to my surprise, I could not figure it out either. I tried editing her info and clicking on all the different tabs but, no such luck.
After succumbing to Facebook’s “Help Center”, I eventually figured it out. My troubles this morning got me thinking about 2 things. 1.) If the Generation Y can’t figure out how to change their relationship status on Facebook- there is probably no luck for the rest of you 2.) Deciding to become FBO (Facebook Official) with your boyfriend or girlfriend has actually become a major decision in relationships these days.
You must admit, these are always the best/most dramatic updates on your newsfeed.
