Anyone else get that type of request?

Great story! And YES! I've gotten those kinds of requests before - although mine are more like "you made my life a living hell for 2 1/2 years when I was a kid, and now you want to be friends?" I usually decline the request and then block the person so they cannot contact me again. I'm surprised Lois would even consider friending a person like Linda. Clark's definitely softened her up!
(Unless, of course, Lois is considering doing it just to show off how wonderful her life with Clark is.)
Fun story - I loved it and it definitely hit home.

Yeah, Lois can go ahead and friend Molly, but Linda deserves to be blocked! The story does make me wonder, though, how many FB friends Lois might have. She doesn't have a great track record of making and maintaining friendships.

Exactly what I was thinking
. Knowing Lois, I don't think there would be that many.
And to further decline the numbers, I think that Lois would have only actual 'friends' on her list, opposed to collecting more 'acquaintance' type of friendships to her account. I don't see her wanting (or caring) how 'high' her friendship numbers are on Facebook--good for her.
Molly? Go for it, Lois. There was a friendship there at one point. People can reconnect.
Linda? Nope. Why put yourself through it? IMO, Linda wanting to connect again is totally for Linda's purposes only (ie--adding another 'friend' to her account/comparing how their lives have turned out/etc)
.
Great story
. Really enjoyed it!

No. Facebook has never interested me. There have been a few people like Linda who have appeared from my past. If they have not changed or grown up, I avoid them.
Lois had the right idea, get in contact with Molly and have a few laughs, but leave Linda alone. Hanging out with someone like her is problematic.
Good idea for a story! Glad you submitted it!

Thanks everyone for the comments.
I could see her doing that. Without having to actually talk to Linda, Lois could show off how good her life has turned out by just accepting her request and later unfriend her.
I think from her past you're probably right, but I think the list would now contain friends she's met through her kids plus her family. Her list would definitely be under 100 though, IMO.
Totally agree.
Morgana- thanks for reading. I used to be on Facebook all the time. Since having kids and moving to Nevada, I only use it as a way to communicate with friends and let family see what the kids are up to. I imagine that's what Lois would use it for also.

Hi chickberry!
Friends? And a wife? Hmm…
Ah, Facebook friends. Hmm… 
Something sinister? Or Friendfinder?
Also, wasn’t Molly the anti-tech-terrorist?
LINDA: I did nothing my California therapist would consider worth reporting to the district attorney.
Look! I think that’s the first Superman movie where Clark Kent and Superman have been played by different actors.
This reminds me…I really need to get back to that one plot bunny…

We’ve been so busy that I haven’t been on all week. Your mom was wondering when she would get to see more pictures of the kids.”

Well, two actually. How is it that I get two in one week both from people I haven’t talked to in almost 20 years?”

We just never did reconnect after her boyfriend tried to kill me multiple times.

In reality, that lunch was only platonic gathering of rival reporters but somehow they had twisted it into a romantic date, complete with clinking glasses, arm entwined wine sipping, and a mariachi band.

“But still not as bad as Linda’s portrayal of me. I’m not now nor have I ever been blonde in any way. She played my character like a moony-eyed, obsessive, high school cheerleader.”

“Umm…” She leaned her neck to the left to give him easier access. “I’m not all that tired though.”
“Humm…I know. So come to bed,”

They both knew what it was going to take to get Lois’s hot-tempered mind to calm down.

“I think you should show me how easy Earth girls really are when it comes to the guy who plays Superman.”
Lois pulled back. “And why would I do that?” she teased.
