Do you ever take it personal when someone deletes you from their facebook?

I have interchangeable voodoo dolls specifically for that purpose.

That’s funny.

I have 10 “friends”, 2 of which are family…the other eight I barely know, so it wouldn’t make much difference to me.

Yes.

No. I have separate fb accts for friends, family and co workers, if they were combined into one then there would be some deleting going on just because of frakas. I like to be frakas free.

No, and no one should either.

I’m not particularly attached to FB (I have an odd 400 or so; 350 then, of whom I don’t talk to frequently), but if any of the few who I actually keep up with were to delete me… I wouldn’t take it personally (not immediately anyway), but I would wonder what was going on. Like any friendship.

As for friend requests: I’m usually the one accepting or ignoring (mostly crazy aunts or family members I’ve never met) those, so when I do look someone up, I do hope to be accepted. I wouldn’t go into hysterics if I wasn’t accepted within a week or something (unless I’d already forgotten), but I would feel some sense of rejection if I was really counting on it to happen.

I cleverly avoid this issue by not having a Facebook account. :D

But I don’t get offended when people defriend/unfollow me on Tumblr, Twitter, Fluther, LiveJournal, last.fm, or any of the other silly-ass crap that I do participate in. I talk about what I want to talk about when I want to talk about it. If people don’t want to see/hear about it, I’m fine with that. I mean, half the time I can barely stand myself. It surprises me sometimes how loyal some people apparently are to me.

I don’t have a sufficient attention span to notice.

Nope ! I deleted my account, too many time wasters on there, I prefer this place now ;-)

Depends on who it is. Some people worry me when they start throwing out friends. It’s like the equivalent of giving away possessions making me wonder about their mental state. Some people unfriend me because I said something offensive hard to imagine, I know and that dropping doesn’t bother me at all.

Only if it appears to be done as some sort of slight. Usually, though, people just are tired of reading the 50 million news posts I put up each day, and don’t understand that Facebook has a ‘hide’ feature.

Nope. I find that they’re either not on FB as much as I think they are, and don’t want any more contacts, or that they keep parts of their life separate.

I have (call me sensitive). Over the past 3 years I have had a FB account, there have been four people who did not accept my friend request and all four were people I have been friendly with at some point in my life. One is a guy that I think is not into reading lots of posts, and I think he does not know about the hide posts feature. The rest are women who I have been friends with but not close friends, and I was kind of wondering for what reason I got rejected.

I’m with @incendiary_dan…I only take offense when it’s meant as a slight.

A year or two ago my spouse’s ex-wife joined FB and “friended” me and my husband (her ex). At the time I was fine with it – thinking perhaps she wanted to see photos we’d posted (that might include her daughter, who we raise 90% of the time) or something.

Then she started posting stuff (cutesy comments, notes on his “wall”) all the time (that I could see) on my husband’s page…and unfriended me. Uncool.

I hadn’t said or done anything (I’m not a frequent poster on FB)...but she decided she only wanted to be FB “friends” with my husband. (Her ex that she divorced over 12 years ago.)

When she unfriended me but kept up with messaging him..it bugged me. I think it was meant to bug me.
So, I asked him to please unfriend her. She can reach us by phone and knows where we live..she didn’t need to be able to “poke” him and send him “private messages” on FB.

No. I don’t know any of my “friends” in real life, anyway, so it doesn’t matter so much.

Occasionally. Especially if they post something bitchy about unfriending people and I happen to see it before I’m off their list. But not often.

I’ve never paid a bit of attention. I have no idea if anyone has ever deleted me or not.

I completely agree with Scooby. Facebook is no more interesting as it was earlier.
