Official Facebook Rulebook

1. Thou shalt not put crazy looking shit in between your first name and last name.... Bobby Ĥ㺥ĤėāŕţfŏŗMïŋĭśťŗŷ Brown... uh... no. #thatsDEFINITELYnotit.

2. Thou shalt not compromise one's character. For instance, if you're a female who's dating, beautiful, 3-job having because you have mouths to feed... there's no reason in hell you should write a status that sounds something like "I don't think women can do anything other than be barefoot in the kitchen, and they definitely can't be president" stop contradicting yourself. Either be barefoot in the kitchen and write that status, or be independent and write a status that involves women as presidents. Don't do both.

3. Thou shalt not put your business on your Facebook. Facebook does not need to know when you and your significant other are having problems. It's awkward. We don't know whether to chime in, or what. Go ahead and vent when you're feeling negative, but don't say "you" did this and "you" suck ass for it... now we all know you guys have a fucked up relationship and one only intensifies the "loser" light on oneself because guess what... you're the one who's putting up with it.

4. Thou shalt not write on other peoples walls and then get annoyed when other people read and comment. If you want a private conversation, you send a message.

5. Ohh Lawd. This is an important one... THOU SHALT NOT TELL FACEBOOK WHEN YOU'RE ON YOUR PERIOD. We all know women bleed once a month. Announcing it is unnecessary, and some of us (actually, I took a poll... MOST of us...) Reeeeaallly needn't know. It's like telling facebook your water just broke. Ummm #nothanks.

This list will grow. I can promise you that.

Mars will not release Venus

People sometimes wonder what impact they're truly making in someone's life (especially when they're in love)... and I've noticed that when it comes to matters of the heart... Men are much more aware of a loss than women.

Many times this year, I've noted how men hold the person that truly moved them extremely close and refuse to let go of the idea of that person, whereas... when women move on - women mooooove on.

In 100% of all discussions I've participated in that involved a woman being contacted by someone she was deeply involved with years ago, she told me how disconnected to that relationship she is. That she doesn't even wonder about the guy (despite once loving the shit out of him) - let alone think of him.

When this same scenario was flipped, I was surprised to find that men were still feverent about the female who moved them. Some of them are even still vainly trying contact her - to no avail.

Its funny to me, because most times - it's women that put more "work" into a relationship (pay special attention to that verb). But when we move on, that's it. It's dead.

So... to all my men who truly love who they're with - but find it hard to show it. This is how it'll end; (In case you missed that whole thing - here's a summary) 10 years down the line... when facebook will be replaced by a holographic application... and you're frustrated because of always mentally referring to her, or mentally comparing everyone to her, and you end up calling her just say hello, or to hear her melodic voice again... or you're simply thinking about her everyday - Be Rest Assured that she isn't.
