Facebook Non-friendship And Real Life

Posted: October 25th, 2008 | Author: miconian | Filed under: Media And Advertising | View Comments

A couple of days ago, I changed my Facebook status to “Michael doesn’t even like you; accepting your friend request was just easier.” This was actually an exaggeration. Although I am Facebook-friends with some people whom I don’t actually consider friends, there isn’t anyone I’ve friended who I actually dislike.

Nevertheless, someone I consider an actual friend un-friended me as a result. She went on to tell me in an email that she found my Facebook updates “negative” and that she preferred not to get them.

There might be something profound in here somewhere, but I’m not sure what it is.

    Oh, this is too comical. I love the fake “be well!”

    Less comical for me, since she was an old friend of mine.
