here where I live temp is the new teen age young adult version of saying .... its cool, everything is ok, everything is fine, dont worry I know what I am doing.
as for the ever changing facebook status for relationships I dont know about where you are but here in NYC its taught in elementary, jr high and high school and colleges to be cryptic, make frequent changes and to sometimes lie on things like whether you are in a relationship. think of it like when you go to work and you have someone constantly asking you to spend time with them what some people do is sometimes they say sorry Im busy with no further explaination, sorry I have a date, or my boyfriend or girlfriend and I are going to .... doesnt always mean its true and doesnt always answer questions for other people but it also stems off unwanted persons.
my suggestion since the step daughter is over 18, to let her run her facebook in what ever ways that she wants to. Just like she probably doesnt tell you what you can and cant post on your facebook and you may not like it when she questions why you posted this or that... in short theres a time to hold on to our children and theres a time for letting them live their own lives. facebooking is one of those times to let go if the child is over 18 and capable of having her own facebook account.
another suggestion if reading her face book continues to be a trigger for you, facebook does have a way so that you dont see her profile and posts unless you choose to find it. its called unfolllow. this will allow you to be on her "friends" list but at the same time not see every post and changes she makes to her own page, unless you purposely go to her profile and page.
