Are you friends with a former lover on Facebook?
Then you could be damaging your health!!
According to a recent study conducted at Brunel University, as many as half of Facebook users are risking psychological damage by using the site to spy on their former flames.
Before Facebook and social networking, keeping tabs on exes was a lot more difficult, and required stalker-like dedication.
These days, however, it is easy to keep up continual surveillance, checking on what they are doing, who they are with, and where they are.
According to psychologist Dr. Tara Marshall, who led the study, it can make it more difficult to move on.
Dr. Marshall and her team found that those who remained Facebook friends with an ex experience more distress and took longer to move on compared to those who immediately clicked “unfriend.”
Fortunately or not, there's nothing wrong with my health... (^o^;)
