Have you ever had someone purposely egg you on and try to pull you into a fight on Facebook? My mother and I are “friends” on Facebook, and she continually tries to get a rise out of me. One of my friends once told me “Honey, Facebook’s motto is ‘A Place for Friends’ not passive-aggressive dysfunctional family members, you should just unfriend her already.”

 And I would unfriend her, but it just doesn’t seem like it would be worth it. I mean, the effort of dealing with her reaction to me unfriending her on Facebook just seems like it would be too much effort. And I cannot bring myself to sum up the will to even care anymore. Instead I just don’t give into and sink down to her level when she tried to pull me into some drama.

Dealing with this is all too much effort.
