An ex-Facebook friend invited me to join a network group for working people.? - Sunny_1_ - 05-07-2013 03:18 PM

We were best friends a couple of decades ago but she married and I continued my education. We have been connected on Facebook for several years along with her two boys and one daughter-in-law. To make a long story short, she posted a couple of non-family picks and deleted my post but carried on a conversation with her bff about the other post. I un-friended her and she can still see me and I can still see her.

My question is this: She has no need what-so-ever to be on this work related network. I use this network to find jobs and connect with recruiters. Why is she asking me to connect with her?

Obviously, none of us are mind readers and you have the right to decline the request, which is what I generally do.

Although, I am not a mind reader, since the site is for job seekers to "network" with employers and others who may know someone who may have an unadvertised, job opportunity. Connecting with this ex-face book friend will allow her access to all the people that you know and vice versa.

Of course, you could send her a "what's up email about the connection request?" through the work related site and based on her reply, decide whether you want to connect.
