I have. I fell in love about 4 years ago with a guy named Tim, we weren't dating, but had kind of a friends with benefits thing going on. My best guy friend at the time, lets call him "J" ended up convincing me that Tim was a terrible person and that I shouldn't be with him, and because I was young and stupid, I let him manipulate me. Tim asked me out the day after that conversation and I turned him down. Biggest mistake of my life. J ended up comforting me and I started dating him after a night when I had a little too much to drink and was feeling lonely. J ended up being an abusive asshole in every sense. Emotionally, physically, and sexually abusive, he beat me and raped me and did a number of things that I really don't care to mention. All that time, I never stopped thinking about Tim and what we could have been, but J forced me to cut contact with Tim the minute we started dating. I messaged him a few times secretly, and admittedly facebook stalked him, and he was still the same amazing guy I fell in love with. He had a girlfriend, so I tried to forget about him, but still checked his facebook periodically to see what he was up to. Ironically, this was around the time that the Katy perry song "The one that got away" came out. Fast forward to 3 years of the abuse from J and I was fed up, so I dumped him for good. I stayed single for a few months and tried to undo some of the mental damage J had done, and eventually I was ready to date again. I dated one guy for a few weeks but that didn't work out. And then one day I checked Tim's facebook, he had been single for about a year and had joined the Marine corps. At the time, he was away at bootcamp, but I sent him a message asking him how he was and telling him that I missed him. Then he got back, saw my message, left his number and told me to text him. Apparently, after all that time, he still thought about me and was checking MY facebook to see if he still had a shot one day. We went out on a date the following weekend, and have been together ever since. In fact, the wedding is in July. So technically, facebook stalking gave me my happy ending. :3
