When your phone goes off after 11 PM, it’s easy to get that little rush. Heart beating, you flip it open and there it is: that “Oh baby I want you so much” text that can make your self-confidence skyrocket. “Yes!” you think. “A drunk guy wants me! I’m awesome!!” As long as it takes you to fluff up your hair and hail a cab … you’re there. There are a lot of things to love about the late-night booty text (LNBT).

Oh, Facebook. It used to be so simple. Put up a cute pic, flirt, get Poked. And then FB went and got an Extreme Makeover.

In between the posts from friends, there are recent photos, status updates, new hobbies, links you’ve shared, videos you’ve liked, parties you’ll be attending, friends you’ve accepted. It knows more about you than …

It’s always exciting to get that e-mail from Facebook telling you a potential love interest has friended you. Whether it’s a new crush in class or the guy you met at the bar, it gives you a rush. “He wants to BE MY FRIEND!” you think. “This is the start of something wonderful!” You can flirt on each other’s Walls and send private messages. Maybe it is the start of something wonderful … until it isn’t anymore. Whether it was cheating, “irreconcilable differences,” or just a gradual fade-out, you may …

Here are some ways to make the most of your reply:

Resist the urge to immediately forward the breakup e-mail to everyone in your address book, while texting and Tweeting …

It’s hard to believe there was a time that if you wanted to know, say, the answer to 21 Down, you had to look in an encyclopedia. And if you wanted to know more about your crush, you had to call (from a real phone!) a friend of a friend who knew him way back when.
