I would tell most newcomers to try to stay off FB, and to tell as few people as possible to keep the road home paved and smooth, but I wonder if my sitch is different.
I've been DBing for a solid 15 months with no change in H. He's not my friend in FB and I spend very little time on my real FB account but I have a lot of family and friends through that account.
Once we told the kids and my parents and H actually moves out of the house, I thought it would be appropriate to finally be able to be out in the open about my sitch. It would be a quick and easy way to let everyone know so that those who care might be able to know what's really happening in my life.
Thumbs up? Thumbs down?

Same as AS. I also deactivated my account for a couple of weeks just to get my head around other things.
Together for 8,5 years. S2 Interest in OM. She left 29.09.12 b/c we couldn't work things out. No signs of OM, not digging. Living in seperate homes, sharing custody.
AD right now I would do nothing. Personally it felt good after I began to tell people. But I did it face to face. It was liberating. I think you may get lots of comments and statements that you may not want on your page. I heard that things are not official until they are said on FB. I say kaka. Wait whats the rush?

I did the same thing as as UF, I was afraid I would post something stupid and I didn't want to do that. After 2 months I reactivied it and just blocked my H and the OW. I don't put anything on there unless it is about my S17 or S19 good times, nothing about my stitch or R status. Nobody needs to know.

You can just change your relationship status so that only you can see it and then change it to whatever you want. That would save anything being posted about the status change. No one will likely even notice.

What's prompting me is the idea of telling people who will eventually know, without having to have a conversation with each one. I'm leaning toward letting the grapevine handle it.
