Facebook catharsis (From The Northern Echo)

Facebook catharsis

Over the years, clients have referred to how they have ripped up, burnt, or even cut their former spouse out of, family photographs.

I understand, however, that, in an age where couples take more photos than ever and proudly display them online in Facebook albums, a more cathartic remedy is available in the form of the delete button.

It is no longer enough to simply change one’s status from “in a relationship” to “single”, but, and in addition, complete healing apparently stems from the deletion of all those offending pictures.

Ah, if only life were really that simple.
