Recently I received a Facebook 'friend request' from a coworker who I don't know very well and I accepted it on the basis that maybe she wanted to actually get to know me better. Two days later at work, I passed her in the aisle of our cubicles and I was ready to put on my 'Hey how's it going?' passing line, and she just looked hard at the ground, avoiding me all together. Was I wrong in thinking that she wanted to be acquaintances but instead she just wanted to snoop on my info? I understand if she is shy (I've been there), but obviously she isn't so shy that she didn't want to request me in the first place. And to top it off, she is the girlfriend of one of my friends and it's hard for me to restrain myself from asking him "wtf's up with your girl?"
Should I 'de-friend' her since I don't want unfriendlies snooping on my stuff? Or should I smother her with niceness and force her to acknowledge my presence while squeezing through the aisles?
What should I do?
Sincerely,
Frustrated by Facebook 'friends' in New Mexico
