who is making the post. Is it you or is it your wife?

If you are that worried your spouse is going to cheat on you just have their login in a different browser and go check in from time to time.

It's just so weird. Has anyone seen people that aren't LDS do this because I haven't. Lots of people put a picture of them and their spouse as the profile pic, but the joint account is just being the weirdest weirdo's in all of weirdville.

They are plain stupid. A few people on CB have defended having them

fb accounts are stupid whether joint or not.

I disagree completely. Like any tool, depends on how you use it.

Agree. I use it to find out what's going on around town, concerts, plays, etc

I see, then I would tend to agree with you

kimdaddy35

4/27/15 10:36am

I don't agree. A lot of couples do it so there aren't any "secrets" etc.
