This is a question Social Networking Gaffes

Freddy Woo writes, "My school bully just friended me on Facebook!" No doubt he pokes him, and then demands his lunch money.

Personally, last month a scantily clad young woman confused me with her fiance, with whom I share a first and last name. I'm still not sure she's noticed, but she's going to be mortified when she does.

What's the biggest mistake you've made using a social networking site?

(wince)
Please, if you don't like someone, just say "Thanks, but No" it's both cruel and cowardly to just ignore them until they get too disspirited even to hope.

Better the headsman's kiss than the Oubilette...

In my defence
Not much of a defence but still...

I initially liked them enough to add them in the first place, just (naively) wasn't expecting the ensuing bombardment. And I haven't led anyone on, I've made it quite clear that I'm not interested in them in THAT way. I just get the feeling they're only hearing what they want to hear.

I know being direct will be better for all concerned. I just hate doing it... being direct with needy people is like kicking kittens.

And er... whut?
