S/O: Facebook friends
Are there people who show up on your list of potential friends/people you may know, that you actually do know, but don't request as friends for whatever reason, but are then miffed when they don't request you to be their friend?
I constantly get folks I went to high school as suggestions, and I assume they get me, too, but I often wonder why they aren't requesting to be my friend.
My excuse ... I don't want to look needy!
Re: S/O: Facebook friends
Facebook has made me be bold.... I have asked so many people to be my friends, basically because I am nosey and want to see what everyone is up to. It has been good for me... I think that most people would accept a request, I don't think that I have been denied yet. I found this guy on there who like tortured me in middle school to the point where I still resent him for it. I asked him to be my friend so I could see what he was up to, there was a part of me that wanted to see if I was more successful (I was so hoping for it).... yeah he has his doctorate from Princton, so well he one upped me in the career department... but ha... I have cute kids... beat that!
**On a side note I found out that one of the kids I was friends with in HS is now a writer for Grey's Anatomy... that was pretty cool.
... every single day of forever.
I am like Stacey in that I am totally compelled to accept high school friends that I wasn't super close with almost 20 years ago. It is fun to see what people are up to after all these years. I am more timid in my friending, I think I went into this thinking it would be a good way to keep in touch with friends who live out of town.
I had a really good FB experience last week. I lost touch with my roommate from college after her wedding, she friended me and we got together last Friday with another good friend and had a reunion. It was really nice to catch up.
I'd say with us, find one or two you know, friend us and then go through the nestie friends and friend the rest. that will give you a base or go into your high school or college, even family. I've had people I only know in passing friend me. So don't know if they really know who i am or are just friend whores.
I'm glad to hear I am not the only one who thinks this way with Facebook. I agree with the Link Bride. I will request friends that I know of and will accept friend request even if I barely knew them. I am like most who are really nosey about what most people are doing in their lives but don't make an effort on my end. I have recently found a friend from college which is great and a friend from high school just joined last night and we have been catching up. It can be addicting. I started so I could keep in touch with friends that live away from home easily. It feels like my entire high school is now on there.
Is there a "Nest Group" on Facebook? There seems to be 1000s of other groups. Just curious?
