Whoa, I'm definitely not ready to be Facebook official when we've only been dating for a few weeks! Well, look at that—Katie and my ex-boyfriend are Facebook official now. Ugh. After dating for a few months, and agreeing that we were dating exclusively, Eddie and I decided to make it Facebook official.

FB stalk (someone)
To attempt to learn more about a person (typically someone whom one does not know very well) by looking at their Facebook profile, posts, photos, etc. I FB stalked Josh yesterday and saw no signs of a girlfriend, so, you're welcome. Ugh, FB stalking people I went to high school with is just depressing anymore. They all have kids and houses and intense careers, and here I am, living at home. I don't want to FB stalk my date, I want to get to know him organically—and in person!
