The Facebook Call

In the realm of social interactions, social networks have come to play a major role today as they provide an easier way of interaction and a way for people to carry on with their ulterior motives. They are a different world in themselves as you can choose to be someone else completely and get away with it. I have come across people who consider themselves nothing below the level of 007 over the net, but when it comes to some real interaction, they would bring even Black Shadow( From GI JOE fame) to shame.
If this is not burdening enough to your senses. here is another fun fact. Lot of people try to play the "best-friend -to-all" card by just liking their ridiculous status and selfies. In a way, just by being benevolent with the "LIKE" button, you are in a way strengthening your friendship. So, if you aren't on FB at all, you are in some deep waters. You are no good to the modern society. After all, if i don't get any likes from you, what good are you anyways.

Usually, in the olden days when a guy would have a crush on a girl, he would try to go out to her and speak to her. He would try to know a little about her interests and speak to her trying to be the Yoda of it all, till the girl would presumably start getting late for her class, or would show a sense of urgency in meeting a friend who is probably waiting for her at a safe distance of about a km from you...But now with FB, you can indulge in the habit of" Socially Tapping into Abridged lampooning Kernel and Information Net Gathering ", i.e, STALKING. If you do it right, you can have those conversations where not only do you establish yourself as a good friend, but coerce the person into thinking of you are probably "the one". That is bloody manipulative.

But all this comes with its own set of risks, like, what if you send a friend request to this new found friend, and she doesn't accept it. Well, this is a very cruel technique now employed by women all over the world to get rid of guys like you. It's like a nail to the heart, where social network acceptance not rendered brings about a negativity and instills an idea of lack of interest in pursuing anything further with the person on the other side.

One of my friends, recently sent a friend request to his crush and she accepted. But then, the "friend" request was to literal in her domain as the guy eventually did just get to be her friend. You obviously don't want that to happen to you, do you?

Crushes apart, there are few people who become friends over the net and date over the net...and guess what...break up over the net. Such people in all regards are very weird and I am sure, they are looking forth to the copulating over net technology to further their love interests. Its only a matter of time.

I remember back in school, in 11th grade there was this really hot girl who would draw lot of eyes in the geeky school crowd. I somehow had the privilege of sharing the same bus as her. But you see, few people are in fact eye candies and that is all they are. You can stare at them and wonder to how good they are, than talk out of fear, that should that facade of beauty fade with her utter stupidity, you may not be able to enjoy the delightful staring anymore. This is precisely what happened in my case.Anyways,one day this person once was sitting beside me and i thought to myself, why not speak to her. So as i started the conversation, she turned out to be one of those people who give you their entire life story, for it looks as if you care.(I need to get rid of that look) She started telling me about her life, her hobbies....and then after a little toiling around...her BF. I wasn't exactly heartbroken, but was intrigued and wanted to know who this gentleman might be. It so turned out that this was a person who lived in some other part of the city, and had befriended her over the net. Not that i need to state it out, he asked her out and they were now in a relationship..KUDOS..the guy was skilled with the fingers :p. Now, I am sometimes not really good at masking my feelings, for i found myself hysterically laughing on hearing her love story. And FB played its role again, and i got UNFRIENDED!!! Cheers!!! 
So, folks be a little careful in making the Facebook call, for it can destroy you.
