[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think ignoring BILs Facebook messages (even if just an emoticon or a simple Hey) was rude, so I can see where he is coming from.[/quote]

OP here- I would agree with you, but I do respond to about every third of them. When DH and I started dating, BIL would do it way more often, and the more I responded the more he emailed me (it was multiple times a week, and I'd only met him once at that point), so I had to stop responding to every one. I don't not respond to his "hellos" to be a bitch. That was a boundary I set early, and I didn't realize it was chaffing so badly several years later. [/quote]

Are you viewing them - so he can tell they have been viewed, but not replying? [b]I think that is slightly rude; I think many people think of it as a text - aka, if they know you got it , they expect a reply - even if only a smiley face.[/b]

NOT justifying that incredibly crazy behavior, just saying they may operate on different FB rules than you do. [/quote]

Not OP, here. Who has time for this? I'm an adult, not a teenager. [/quote]
