    Maybe they binned you because could no longer take the bad spelling?

    Please don't say "my bad". That's worse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,783 ✭✭✭DeadHand


    Relax, OP.

    They probably aren't really your friends anyway.

    Leave facebook and read an actual book, go to a play, talk to someone interesting, take up a sport and/or hobby.

    Contact a missing friend(s) and ask did they unfriend you?

    Do not use facebook to do this. Use a phone or maybe even meet in person.
    Stay strong!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,065 ✭✭✭crazygeryy


    Try turning off your pc then jumping up and down on it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Maybe you lost them because they were sane enough to delete there Facebook accounts.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    They're probably sick of your thoughts on "how bang on Russell Brand is about modern society"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,817 ✭✭✭✭The Hill Billy


    Turn Facebook off, then turn it back on again. That'll sort it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,622 ✭✭✭Ruu


    Are you down any more since starting this thread?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 97 ✭✭Naggins


    Again, I dont post anything like Russell Brand, water charges, competitions or stupid selfies. When I did originally notice the friend count decreasing, I went to see who it could be but couldnt find anyone. I jaut deactivated it cos it was gonna keep on going down (it might still do that anyway)

    Have you tried this facebook survey?



    My friends are deleting me on facebook. Should I ask:

    [x] the friends who are deleting me from facebook
    [ ] random strangers on the internet

    If you don't care enough to even notice who is gone from your friends list, then why does it matter?

    Agree with the general jist of the advice but it's not like posting on boards is massively different than doing so on facebook.

    It is.

    There's no comparison between the level of articulation and intelligence in evidence here as opposed to FB.

    I don't need to pretend to be anyone's friend here, no one pretends to be mine. I don't get bombarded with mundanity to the same degree. My exes can't stalk me and I can't stalk my exes. It's far more difficult for me to get in hot water in real life for views I express or experiences I recount here than it would on FB. I won't sour relationships that matter to me by speaking my mind here as I could on FB. I'm exposed to far less semi literate, self regarding, trivial nonsense.

    Paradoxically, even with the anonynity here, there is less falsehood.

    The two sites are very different animals, offering very different services. But, to me and even barely scratching the surface as I do, the boards is a far superior waste of my time.
