| Yikes, I got my first Creeper on FB today . I guess from now on I will be extra careful on accepting friend requests.. I got a message from this person.. It seemed normal enough , asked me how i was , if i would accept a friend request. so i did.. then the messages continued , it just got way to personal for my comfort.. then at the end he says. i just love the ladies.. i said , so long sucker.. yikes. that was scary . it did not me long to block him and change my privacy settings.. |

| Very creepy! Be very careful on FB. I have a pile of friend requests that I haven't approved because I don't recognize their names. Hope I'm not hurting anyone's feelings, but FB can get out of control.

Social media can take the socially awkward to a whole new level. Lots of creeps out there.

| I didn't do FB for the longest time bc I didn't want weird ppl contacting me. Not until I started my costumes and then the bike biz did I finally give in. I didn't want to do a personal page, but at the time, you could only do a business page if you have a personal page first. So I left all my personal info blank. No home town, schools, employers, no pic of my face in the avatar. I have an ex that pops up every once in a while and I HATE him. I was on friendster for a while (before myspace I think) and I made the mistake of putting a real pic. He tried to add me, I closed my acct. He would see another one of my friends on AIM and always try to start a chat with her. Then on FB I did what I said above, but he found me thru another friend, and tried to add me again! I asked my friend to delete him, she did, and I blocked him. It's been a few years, but I hope I don't ever hear from him again. I still have nightmares quite often that I run into him in a public place. I get anxiety when I go to my hometown too.
