I was on Facebook earlier and went to go look at a friend's page, only to find that all I could see was our mutual friends. no wall, no info, no nothing. This completely shocked me. He is someone that I actually considered to be someone I was pretty good friends with. I have known him for four years and worked with him for two. I have always tried to be a good friend, a huge part of which involves being a cheerful happy person for him, and not letting him get away with it when he acts as if he has a huge stick up his behind. He was one of the main people who pushed for and supported my "promotion" at my restaurant and I have asked him in the past to be one of my references. I have dealt with his problems with girls, one in particular, and tried to support him and help him move past these things. So now I have been what amounts to as blocked by him on Facebook (can't even search for him anymore) and I am shocked, and angry, and very very hurt. I want to go back down to VA and kick him really hard and call him a jerk and some more profane things, and maybe cry a little. Apparently I was very wrong in how I acted around him and treated him. But I don't want to ask him what happened, because I almost feel like I don't want to acknowledge this treatment and give him the satisfaction of knowing that I even noticed. After all, he cut me out without so much a care, so I shouldn't have a care either.
This isn't how people should be allowed to treat each other, and this is why social networking can really really suck. You find out things in the most impersonal manner, and it's way too easy to completely bring down the axe.
