[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know 3 couples like this - 2 in their 40s, 1 in their 60s.

Couple 1 - 40s, account is in husband's name but only wife usually posts on it, and always writes her first name at end of post, "-Larla". 
Couple 2 - 40s, account in both names, last name is missing a letter because there isn't room for LarloandLarlaJones. Both seem to use it but it is hard to tell sometimes which one is posting
Couple 3 - 60s, account is in wife's name but most posts are from the husband, who always starts out with "Larlo here."

I don't really get it - Facebook accounts are free, and clearly these people understand how to use it, so if you want to post on your spouse's account all.the.time, why not get your own? [/quote]

Maybe so they don’t feel obligated to two accounts? A lot of people I know, myself included, find it odious to have to check in all the time, hit like like like & comment comment comment so no one feels snubbed. If they have one account they can split the chore of FB but still have an account so people don’t ask them why they aren’t on FB? Maybe they are on FB mostly to keep up with the kids school activity groups, SN parent group, professional organization, or just to keep tabs on who their teenagers are talking to. But you can’t be on FB without every damn person you ever knew friending you and suddenly you have to constantly express your interest all day long in the lives of dozens of other people without the benefit of a real conversation or doing something real life with them.

I found it tedious and exhausting so I quit FB. People actually took that as a sign I might be suicidal? I just wanted my life back![/quote]
