My
mommy updates have been missing because I haven't had time to talk to Ma as much
of late. Both of us have been busy with our own pursuits. When we finally had
some time to catch up, Ma asks me in Bangla about this person, an ex-friend I
am no longer in touch with.
Ma: Do you speak to them?
Me: Na. It's been a year.
Ma: Good for you. Still, how are they?
Me: No idea. I deleted them from FB.
Ma: What? Why did you need to delete them from FB? No harm in keeping them around on FB, right?
So it looks like according to Ma, the harshest thing to do is delete someone from FB. It doesn't matter that they were no longer active in my life and I hadn't spoken to them in a long time. Unfriending someone on FB is the ultimate death knell of friendship, for her at least.
