Is this inappropriate by his friend to do? - Spencer - 11-09-2012 04:28 PM
Let's say a guy has a girlfriend. On Facebook, one of his female friends write a post wishing him happy birthday and ends it with "xxx", which is three kisses, so is that appropriate if he has a gf and can see it?
BTW, what name is "Barr" a simplification of? Is it a female name?

Actually, xxx means hugs. So, it's appropriate. she's just wishing him a happy birthday.

its not appropriate esp if she knows he has a gf!

Yes, it is appropriate. Even if she put hearts I think it would be appropriate too. It doesn't mean anything considering it is his birthday.

I always thought XO was Hugs and kisses.
X being hugs and O being kisses?
Either way depends on the friendship between them. How long have they known each other. Have they ever dated before? And if it is a "kiss" it could be a kiss on the forehead.
Its hard to tell on that one.

Yeaa its appropriate, its just showing love. As long as you don't see any flirting going on verbally then there's nothing to worry about.
And I don't know, maybe Bart, or Barry, or Barney ? Lol

XXX DOES mean kisses. It depends on the kind of relationship/friendship the guy has with the girl, and how comfortable his girlfriend is with the guy's friends who are female, as well as how much she trusts the guy. If he's super trustworthy and hasn't shown signs of being dishonest about anything in the past and he is able to explain why you shouldn't worry, then I'd trust him. If he's been shady in the past (been caught cheating, has a rep of being a ladies man, etc), then you definitely need to have a talk about it.
In all honesty, I wouldn't worry too much if a girl posted Happy Birthday and XXX. Girls do that kind of thing- put xxx in their messages to guys even if there's nothing going on. It's being flirty. If it was something like "Had a great time last night, wink wink," then there might be cause for concern.
Barr could be Barbara. It could also be Barry. Who knows.

Nothing to Read in that. She has no meaning in placing that if she knows he already has a gf. and it could be her way of wishing someone close..
