1. You write an email to an old friend and they don't write back
2. Certain friends never comment on your kids pics 3. Certain friends never comment on your status even though you comment on their's Thanks! |

| Depends on the person but not usually-FB can be invasive sometimes. |

FB is frustrating....there are some people who seem to want to show off all the time... It's amazing how much of who someone is comes out of their status. FOr example, if they are always talking about how great their life is...hmmm you have to wonder.
Ugg! It's not that I"m mad with fb. It's just that there are so many so called "friends" and really they don't give two XXX about me. I wish I didn't add them as a friend. OP sounds like you might be too sensitive to all this. |

| No. In this short life there are better things to worry about. |

| I felt bad until I realized that FB is not like email. FB is like this very distracting thing with tons of stuff going on. The people with hundreds of "friends" on FB probably get too distracted with all the wall stuff, etc. to answer everyone. |

number 1 yes.
if 2 and 3 upset you then you need to get over yourself. |

No, no, and no. I realize that people use facebook differently, and eventually, I usually get responses to email - sometimes much much much later. At the same time, I have been guilty of the 3 things you mention, and it is not because I intentionally try to avoid a facebook friend or not comment on their status, but I am one of those people who rarely posts anything in the status, I also rarely post any comments on my friend's status. I guess I'm more passive than active on facebook. |

| no, no and no. I realize my friends are probably just as busy as I am. |

| I just posted this on the other FB thread, but the newsfeed function is really weird and I basically only interact with the people who pop up on my newsfeed when I first log on. The selection seems to change every couple of weeks. Sometimes I wonder why someone hasn't had anything going on but if I actually make the effort to look them up, I see they have been posting but it hasn't made it onto my newsfeed. So to answer your question, that's why I don't feel bad if I don't get responses; I assume they get the same kind of filtering from FB as I do. |

Yes. Only because direct contact -via the email function- is being ignored.
No. No. |

No. No. No. In fact,
1. There have been a lot of old friends who I don't answer because I don't want to get in touch with them. Basically, if I haven't spoken to you in 30 years there is a reason (I'm not talking about good friends you simply lost touch with, I'm talking about people you were never really close to trying to leech onto you now through FB). 2. I don't want someone commenting higgledy-piggledy on every picture they see (okay if they send a personal message about it, but you don't have to put it on the wall! It clogs up space and usually adds nothing). 3. I don't do status because I think it's idiotic and narcissistic. Thanks! |

| Sorry that was me above. I cut and paste from the OP to remember what she asked. But I kept the Thanks! by accident. I didn't mean to put that in, which sounds like I'm making fun of her original questions... |

OP -
I can't for the life of me "handle" facebook. THe rare times I log on, I get bombarded by all this crap I don't want, and i can't figure out how to see the stuff from my "true friends" It drives me nuts and I log off. So if you were my friend, you would think I was ignoring you when in reality, I would be seeing a lot of stuff. As far as e-mail through facebook, just send a regular e-mail! |
