There are people I am friends with on Facebook who just can't seem to grow up. There are two in particular who stand out - both graduated high school in 2003, and are just now getting around to going to college, majoring in "soft" fields. One is living out of her car, and bouncing around from place to place as she can. The guy is more concerned with playing music and going to shows than getting on things on the road.

Do you know people who absolutely cannot grow up? What do you think of it?

You have a lot of Facebook issues. I have none. I use the "defriend", and "hide" options liberally.

I also don't worry too much about the future of people I have no control over.

I think their lives should not totally revolve around facebook.

Ditto. focus on your own and stop worrying about how others choose to live their life. People "grow up" in their own way.

I will say I know people who "peek" in HS. They tend to be the type of people that you are describing.. holding on to their youth and ruminating in their immaturity.

On one level I think those who can manage to live in Neverland are kind of lucky.

I think a better question is why do you care? Let me guess these are people you graduated HS with in 2003, and other than Facebook have no contact?

I will give you somewhat of as pass as that would make you 29 or 30. There is another poster on here who had a similar thread but she is 45, that I don't get. She is bothered by people she went to school with 30 years ago, again who cares? Unless you want to actually make real life contact.

If you don't see these people, don't talk to them on the phone, now live in different parts of the country, why bother? Other than out of sheer boredom and being overly nosy.
