Facebook-stalking does not mean you like someone.

...Right?

Vapid.

I went through a Facebook-stalking phase but it was more about gathering annoying info on people I didn't like, so I don't think it directly translates to a crush or anything. Boredom and irrational hatred, maybe, but not a crush.

please, Richard. It sounds like they are having fun.
