Yes Facebook. It's over. I've dumped you. No, no
please, don't. Just don't try to explain anything. I don't want to
see your trembling lips and all those mails saying how much you're
going to miss me, and my friends will miss me, and how even God will
get angry of me for dumping you.
Don't try to convince me that I will miss you. Yes,
that worked last time, but after 3 months, I'm sure I took the right
decision and I mean it this time. We're over. And let me tell you
something, it's you who made it bitter.
When I first saw you in 2010, you were cool. I liked
the way everything happened between us. To put it correctly, you
looked good when you were just starting out on campus. God, I can't
believe I used to spend so much time with you. You were attractive and
spending time with you was fun. But what happened to the Fun?
I don't exactly remember when was the first time I
had this doubt about you. This nagging doubt that things were not
working well between us. That I'm wasting my time with you. Everyone
was talking about you, everyone wanted to be with you. And a campus
kid became popular. Let me put it straight, Facebook. I liked your
simplicity and I had complete faith in you. I believed that you will
respect my privacy.
No! Just shut up and stop this begging and pleading.
And stop mailing me.
You enjoyed being loved by others, you loved being
popular. But with every passing second you were slowly becoming
boring and nagging. I hate being controlled. I hate and then ignore
people who try to control my life. You were changing the whole set-up
of my life. I wanted my own time but whenever I was with friends, you
would appear. Whenever I was alone, you would come. Whenever I was
enjoying my favorite dishes, you asked me to share images with you. I
was sick and tired of sharing my life with a retard who has no
respect for my privacy.
Was it really important for you to follow me
everywhere I go? And then telling my friends what I was doing? You
know there's a definition for that in dictionaries? Stalking!
I hated when you went on forcing me to be friends
with Nagrajan Muthuswami. We didn't know each other, we shared no
hobbies, but Facebook you forced me for days to be friends with that
unknown guy. And you continued this thing for years. I didn't know
any of these people, they were not my friends, they are yours.
For God's sake, stop sending me those mails!
I don't care how much Sreeparna will miss me. What I
really care is Facebook, that you are everywhere. No matter what I
buy, where I eat, what I wear, there you are standing right there to
attract my attention. Like a stalker.
I don't want to see my friend's cat. I don't want to
share my food pictures. Inviting friends for a real-life treat is a
much more interesting thing to me. So what if one of my friends is
going to watch a new movie? Why do you keep telling me that? I really
don't want you to keep reminding me my friends' birthdays. I remember
the special ones. And those I don't, I don't because I don't want to
wish them. You can keep all my friends, all 167 of them.
But one thing is for sure, we are never, ever, ever,
ever getting back together.
