Facebook = fakefriends
14.3.07
I have recently had a discussion with various people about Facebook and the level of "fakeness" present on the site.
I have a boat load of friends, many of whom I know and want to have on my list of friends. However, many of these "friends" I simply agree to befriend cause I don't want to look like a prick (which is fairly easy apparently). So I have a monster list of "fakefriends" that I really don't give rocks to know or see or hear from. In fact, I probably wont ever talk to them on facebook.
I feel the need to ask why these people even bother to ask to be friends with me? Why do they feel the need to befriend someone who doesn't even really like them? I just don't get it.
I have now just started leaving these requests alone and not declining or accepting them. Anyone else got any solutions?
