In the last week, I have been noticing strange things in my suggested friends box on Facebook. Now, I would assume the majority of these people are friends of friends. Perhaps some of them are people who have worked for companies I have listed in my work history. Those things both make sense.
But what if you could not think of any connection? Just this past week, my aunt showed up in my suggested friends box. Now, I don’t have anyone in my family in my friends on Facebook. She also has my mother’s maiden name. So how could she be in my suggested friends? I decided this was weird but chose not to think about it any more.
Then this morning, my old landlord showed up in the box. WTF?! There is no connection I can see through any details I have given Facebook, so how would it know that I would know her? Why is she there?!
I think I’m getting scared.
This can only mean your aunt and landlord keep looking you up on Facebook. Though why they’d bother when there’s 10 years of blog-stalking to be done, I do not know.
