College came and we both changed, I just wasn't that into him anymore (and I met someone else...which is a whole other story.) So I broke up with him, but I really wanted to still be friends. That wasn't in the cards...he changed even more, went from a nice all-American guy to this crazy, drunken weirdo. He would also have this random freak-outs at me or have his friends call and harass me. This went on for years, even after he had another girlfriend.
Anyways...I am rambling...this story has a point.
A had an older brother, we'll call him The Situation...because he is very similar to the Jersey Shore character. TS was in his early twenties when we were in high school, which at the time seemed...old. He always kind of seemed to be coming on to me, but he was like that to lots of girls so I didn't think much of it.
Well, it's been about 8 years since I have seen TS and the other day I get a facebook message from him (we were not facebook friends so this was out of nowhere.) It said: "sorry for being sooo random, just seeing how my brothers ex is doing. glad to see your doing ok"
Yes, a little random but oh well, it is facebook. So I friended him and sent a message back saying: "Hey! I'm doing well...hope you are too!." Casual...not trying to really go into a whole lot of detail with this guy I really don't know.
Then he responds with this: "Yeah im ok i See your still looking good." Ummm WTF? I just don't respond to that one. The a couple days later I get another message: "is it weird i contacted you"
Again, I didn't say anything back. Then a couple days after that he ims me on that facebook chat thing. So I also just ignore him. Now he just constantly sends me weird applications.
Should I just keep ignoring him? Is this common on facebook and I have just been missing out?

I'd have to say it is common on Facebook. People go for many different reasons but one of them IS to meet people and date.
I'm not really I big facebook user but if he bothers you just de-friend.
I guess part of the reason I thought it was weird is because it does say I'm in a relationship on facebook.
it does seem weird to me. Especially since you do know him and that it's been so long.... If you have no interest in talking to him, don't. That's perhaps the one good thing about FB, you can ignore and most people wont mind.
That is way awkward. And especially the "I see you're still looking good" part because HELLO statutory when he knew you before.
I'd be creeped. I'd probably delete him. If only because he kept sending me stupid apps because that's just annoying.
Just ignore him!
This sounds creepy. I'm not a huge fb user, but I do get the occasional old guy/girl from h.s wanting to add me as a friend. I'd just ignore it for now. If he becomes too persistant you can always delete him. I've done that with ex bf's no problem haha.
I'd just ignore it, hopefully he gets the hint... if not you can always block him!
i would just defriend him, yes he sounds skeezy, like lots of weirdo guys yuck.
"Normal" or not, go with your gut. This is creeping you out, and there's no need to be the nice girl in this situation. (I know, I do this all the time. Why do I feel I have to be nice to everyone, including creepy guys?) Defriend and even block him.
There are a ton of weirdo has-beens on there. I say it's probably harmless, but if it gets too creepy or just plain obnoxious, just delete him.
TS probably doesn't have too much going on if he's still living in the glory days, perusing facebook, stalking his brother's exes... poor guy! ;)
I"d just ignore or de-friend him. It isn't like you see each other in person and it would cause any problems....he sounds creepy to me too!
I ignore and defriend people all the time who who creep me out!
Go for it!
ugh, I would de-friend. you made it clear by ignoring him that you're not interested in REALLY being his friend, and he's being a total creep.
I would defriend him if I were you.
