Social media has certainly changed the way we interact with others and socialize. We?re no longer limited to our immediate social circles. We can engage other people a half a world away. The new platforms have more than 500 people engaging on a daily basis using sites like Facebook, and some pay little attention to how they send their comments around the web.

For others, they like to be a bit smoother - like a social media ninja. There are a number of reasons someone might want to go silent and send an anonymous message through Facebook, such as:

* Tell off your boss * Tip off your crush that someone likes them * Connect with a lost lover * Blow the whistle on corruption * Provide a tip on illegal activity * Tell your neighbor to clean their damn yard up * Let a classmate know they need to shower after gym * Let someone know they talk entirely too loud * Inform a coworker that the breakroom is not the place to talk about things you like to scratch * Provide feedback to a retailer or business owner

Granted there are numerous ways to send an anonymous message in order to do all of those things but can you send an anonymous message through Facebook? The long and short of it is nope - at least not without a little (or a lot) of effort.

If all you have to access Facebook is your own personal profile then you can’t send an anonymous message through Facebook. The info would show that it?s from you with your name and photo. This info is visible anytime you connect with someone else. Even if you could send a truly anonymous message, you likely wouldn’t make it past the spam filters on the social network.

Facebook does a fair job of keeping their network free of spam. The only way you could truly send an anonymous message on Facebook would be to create a completely separate profile of a false identity. You would need to fill it with relevant information and flesh it out with personality and friends in order to make it look believable. Even then, the anonymous message can be traced back to your I.P. address through the social network if need be. That sounds too much like work just to send an anonymous message on Facebook.

Thankfully there are other methods that are far easier, and they won’t compromise the security of your identity. One of the best options is to use an anonymous messaging service to send an anonymous message. Most are free but there only a select few provide quality message delivery and true anonymity.

The most reliable services will also provide some access to a premium level service that will allow you to send a multi-page letter with quality photo prints to a physical address - anonymously right through the mail. That’s a great option if you have something urgent and serious to deliver to a recipient but you don’t want to reveal your identity.

It’s a lot easier to send an anonymous message with these services and you don’t have to sit for hours creating meaningless profiles. The added benefit is that once you send your anonymous message, the weight will be lifted. Whatever you needed to say will be out in the open and off your chest. It’s spoken because it’s true - the truth will indeed set you free.

How To Build Relationships Not Enemies

Whether you are moving into a new neighborhood, starting a new job, opening a new business or simply looking to expand your social circle, it is important to know how to foster productive relationships. Even if you do not have the desire to be close, or even particularly warm, with the people you will encounter, it is necessary to build relationships not enemies. In addition to making any environment more pleasant, developing relationships is a beneficial skill. You never know when you will need to call upon others for help, and you cannot do this if you have made them your enemies. Here are a few tips for building relationships.

Introductions

Names are extremely important to the development of a relationship. Although it is certainly possible to have a friendly rapport with someone whose name you do not know, names make the relationship much more personal. When you meet someone, introduce yourself by name and ask them what their name is. I always have trouble remembering a name when I initially learn it, so I try to repeat it three or four times, either in my head or in conversation. I try to mention that person’s name a few times afterward, and then greet them by name.

Show Your Interest

Let the person know that you are interested in what they do in other areas of life. If they are your coworker, find out about their home life. If they are a neighbor, ask what they do for a job or for recreation. Do not go overboard with your inquisitiveness, and this often comes off as nosy, creepy, or fake. Just let them know that you have a healthy interest in getting to know them.

Tell Them About Yourself

If you ask the person about their life but offer no details about your own, they may feel suspicious of your motives. Conversations should flow naturally. When someone else shares a detail, you should share one as well. This will be easier if you have common hobbies or interests. When that happens, relationships are often formed quickly. When you are sharing about yourself, be careful not to share too much too quickly. It is one thing to talk about your interest in gardening, and quite another to discuss in detail your messy divorce.

Follow Up

After the initial conversation, make sure you keep open the lines of communication with someone. This will let them know that your interest was more than perfunctory. If your relationship does not end up expanding beyond daily greetings, that is fine. But if you sincerely enjoy talking with the person and want to spend more time with them, invite them out.

Most of the people with whom you engage will not end up being your close friends. But it is important to keep up friendly relationships with those people around you. Even a simple hello and goodbye each day can go a long way. When you build relationships not enemies, you make the environment more pleasant for yourself and everyone else.
