Would you talk to all your FB friends IRL?
Last night, H and I had dinner at Cool Greens (which is *amazing* btw). We were sitting there eating and I saw 2 of my FB friends (one I used to work with, and one I went to high school with). None of us said anything to each other.... and I found that odd. I wondered if I should even be 'friends' with these people on FB because we're obviously not. Maybe FB has re-invented the word friend. lol.
Re: Would you talk to all your FB friends IRL?
I probably wouldn't. I deleted some friends last year and got crap from it from them - I didn't even know they paid attention to their friends list, because I could care less if people deleted me - so I haven't done it since.
It's just like high school. I went home last weekend to meet my college roomie for dinner, and I ran into someone I used to go to school with. I didn't even acknowledge her - and she didn't acknowledge me. *shrug*
I'd probably say hi. A lot of them, I dont' have much in common with anymore, but I feel bad for deleting them since they requested me, so I leave them on there.
I think FB has def. made what used to be aquaintances, friends.
Perhaps. I try not to "friend" people unless I'm actually friends. Some I friended and I don't talk to anymore so I've thought about deleting them. However, for the same reasons mentioned above, I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings yadda yadda, so I usually just ignore their posts in my news feeds and forget about them.
Edit: I will add that in a total opposite, I have had FB "friends" not say hi to me IRL. They saw me and ignored me. So, I will change my perhaps to a yes I would at least say hi.

Lol. No. I have a 1k odd friends on fb and I have honestly started deleting people. Out of those 1k I only talk to 10 on a semi-regular basis.
I knew most from random points of life but we have nothing in common. In saying that, if I see someone I know I always say a "hello."
