FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda COMMENTARY | According to post on the news blog Y! Tech, receiving offensive comments and not knowing much about the other person are the top two motives for removing others from one’s Facebook friends’ list. The post admittedly got me thinking about my own Facebook friends and unfriends, and my behavior in general when it comes to Facebook. My conclusion? I am a bad Facebook friend.
I have a rather on-again, off-again relationship with social networking. Sometimes, I really enjoy the interaction. Other times, messages from friends go unanswered, as do likes, pokes and wall posts. I’m not at all sure how this is perceived by my Facebook friends.
Friends for me seem to fall in two categories on Facebook: Those I am close to, with which Facebook isn’t the only mode of communication, and those I’m not particularly close to who may or may not feel the same about me. It’s that second group that perhaps I have offended by my inability to answer messages in a timely fashion or other careless, cold-shouldered (or -hearted) behavior.
And I would guess this behavior has led me to be unfriended. But I don’t really know. As for my “unfriending” activities? Yes, I have. And for a lot of reasons, including those listed in the post. One of the reasons for me to unfriend is if I am getting deluged with invitations from someone who otherwise doesn’t communicate with me. Requests for dates (sorry, guys, I don’t care if that’s one of your main reasons to network, according to Y!Tech), creepy comments on photos, creepy wall posts and such will also warrant a KO.
I think the main reason I unfriend is simply that, from time to time, I just feel like there are too many people on my list. That, in spite of the notion the list is supposed to be a list of friends, it feels like a list of strangers. So, therefore, I cull.
If my Facebook behavior has caused sadness or confusion to any of my former friends, I do apologize. It really wasn’t intentional.
