stalker

Okay guys.  Confession time.  There is a girl that I stalk on facebook.  Just to make it clear, she is an adult.  
I only stalk people my own age.  
sheesh.

Mind you, I have never met her.  She was one of Tyler's friends who friended me after we got married.  I didn't think much of it.  After a little well-publicized drama in her life, I became super interested in her.  Mostly, it's because the choices she makes and the way she deals with the consequences are SO different from the way I would do it, and yet I sometimes think that we are very similar.  I find her fascinating because I simply don't understand her or her lifestyle.  

I check her facebook regularly

I read every post on her (not kept up at all) blog

I ask friends about her (not in a gossipy way, just in a "tell me about her and how shes doing" kind of way)

When something happens to her, I tell Tyler about it.  When it's something good, I'm legitimately happy for her and I get excited about it. 

I'm positive that the feeling isn't mutual. Not that she doesn't like me, I'm just the wife of an old friend and one of hundreds of facebook friends.  

So there you go.  I'm a creeper.
Can someone please tell me this is okay or normal in some way?
Thanks.

I'm kinda thinking everyone on FB stalks someone to a degree. Facebook just kind of lends itself very well to that.

I stalk my blog stalker. (she moved her blog to another url and we found it last week.) I just want to know if she's still stealing stuff...

Jana- when I first found out you had a blog I fb stalked you hard core. Haha don't judge... we were never really friends but I always heard so much about you (from Janet, the girls & del rey anne...)
Em - I want to stalk your blog stalker. So funny. I'd copy your blog too, though. You're pretty hilarious.

I'm totally a facebook creeper too. Not as much as I used to be, but definitely still qualify for creeper status.
