Marriage Nearly Destroyed by Facebook

A couple almost had their marriage destroyed by the networking website Facebook.

After their wedding and a honeymoon spreading over six months, Gary and Jane Sherbrooke kept a record of their life on Facebook, a very popular social site where anyone could access their home page frequently. They added their honeymoon pictures and even pictures of themselves with their newborn son Sam.

Jane, a thirty one year old consultant, came across a message on their Facebook account from a woman called Jennifer May Phillips who was making a claim that she had slept with Gary and that he had given her Chlamydia. This woman stated that she did not want a response but felt that Jane should know and perhaps go and get tested herself. Thirty five year old Gary, a City insurance broker, denied any knowledge of this woman and was determined to get to the bottom of it.

The couple tried to contact Jennifer but there was no reply and the friends she had listed on her account denied knowledge of her. Jane was understandably upset and initially had doubts as to Gary’s faithfulness but now believes that this malicious message was just a cruel hoax and wants to ensure that others are aware of the dangers of this site. The couple have since closed their account.

    I hope they didn’t waste too much time on a trouble maker and it didn’t cause too many problems between them. What a nasty un-funny thing to do!
