I will delete it next year, when I retire from scouting/leading for a while.
My husband does not have one, because he is also the paranoid type, and FB is a monstrous invasion of privacy. I'm kind of baffled that you said you would not let your husband delete his. I realize you say it in jest, but it also sounds half serious at least. Isn't it his choice if he wants to protect his privacy? Would you really keep important information from him just to satisfy your personal desire to have him on FB??
I think it's important for both of us to have a facebook because of our lifestyle. We are military so we are far away from family and old friends... plus we will be moving a lot, so that means leaving behind friends that we make all over the country. Obviously, if he really wanted to delete his facebook he'd put his foot down and do it regardless of how I felt about it. I do really feel like it's beneficial for the both of us to keep connected with all the people we are constantly leaving behind. He can make his facebook as private and exclusive as he wants, and he has. :
What do you mean by keeping important information from my husband?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
