This one is more of the upside-the-head variety slap v. the straight across the face leaving a red hot hand print on your right cheek kind. I'm sure there is an obvious answer. Something akin to walk away from the internet, perhaps?
Here we go:
I was clicking around the blogosphere and landed on Yvonne's post about her own personal FB dilemma.
Reading her personal problem prompted me to bring up my latest FB conundrum. This is what I wrote:
Y - could you advise me on my FB dilemma? A few months ago I was looking at the friends of my old college friends and found my HS boyfriend. We dated all through HS, I followed him to college and we broke up almost as soon as I arrived on campus. I don't want to be friends FB or otherwise with him. Recently - okay fine, damnit, TODAY I was looking through the list of his friends and found this girl we were both friends with in HS. Her family was very kind to me and I'd like to thank her as an adult and let her know that I still, to this day, remember and appreciate her and her parents kindness. But, I don't really want to be her FB friend. I don't want her to comment on picture and then be able to flip through his album. Or for him to see pictures of me and my family. I just want to say thank you to her (our mutual friend)and then go our separate ways again. Help.
Or. I could just forget about it?

I'm lost... how would adding her as a friend allow your HS boyfriend to be able to see your pics? (you must have your FB set up to allow friends of friends to see your stuff?)
One idea though is that you add her as a friend (so that you're able to send her a note of thanks) but then block her from seeing your albums under your settings. As a matter of fact, you could block him from seeing your pics and updates, too...
You don't have to add someone as a friend to message them. Just send her a note telling her what you said here.
Facebook's nothing but aggravation wrapped up in exclamation points, LOLs and terrible spelling.
Forget it.
