My bad if she meant she was looking at her own wall, however I still stand up for what I said. The 'social networking' aspect of Facebook kind of introduces people that you like... or don't. If you can't handle it, find something else to do in your spare time.

My IMs are saved automatically and I don't delete my Facebook emails. I do read over them when I'm feeling down/or want to reminisce so I understand why OP did it. It's nice to remember old times with old friends and yes, even old boyfriends. But I do that completely accepting that they're ex boyfriends or ex friends are so for a reason. I don't go winge about how I want that relationship back, or what I would have changed, just interesting to remember back to a time I was participially happy about something. I might also do it to help me get over someone. To read my IMs and see it wasn't all for nothing, that I had fun while it lasted, and that I learnt things in the process. I just wouldn't do what OP did and get all upset about a friend suggestion. It would just add to the whole "I had fun, I learnt about myself but it's defiantly for the best it ended." It just sounds like she's blaming the wrong thing..
