Facebook "Friends"

I am starting to get really annoyed with my "Friends" who are on Facebook.

My "Friends" are un-friending me.

Every time I log in I lose a "Friend" or two in my friend count.

This bothers me because THEY requested to be my "Friend", I didn't make the request. I feel sorry for them because they remembered me and I didn't remember them, so I add them to the "Friend" list.

Then, while they look at their "Friend" list they see my name. They think to themselves, "Hmm...Joey Pena? I don't really talk to him and he doesn't talk to me, so I'll just un-friend him."

Why did they add me in the first place? What was their thought process?

Maybe they thought I had secretly wanted to be their friend and now, thanks to their generosity, I had the opportunity to do so, or maybe they just wanted to boost their own ego and have a high friend count.

Who knows?

What I do know is I have lost "Friends" because they were offended by the dirty or gross things I've shared on Facebook.

I do not care about those people.

I should probably stop adding people I don't know that well, but...

I need to boost my ego!
