some people add anyone who they've spoken to, or people who go to their school, or friends of friends you might have met at a party, or your siblings friends. its easy to see how it can build up - i know people who'll just add someone with friends in common.
i'm guilty of doing this a little; i don't add people i dont know very well but if they add me i'll accept.
i have like 250 friends, almost all of which i am friends with in real life. there are a few who just went to my school or i have a class with at uni or i met at a party, but they added me and i didnt want to seem rude by declining....sometimes its funny to have them too.

I don't have a lot of friends either, and quite a bit of them are my family. I don't add people I don't know/haven't met, unless it's like one of my really close friends friends or something because there's no point in having a million people that you never talk to on facebook in my opinion. A lot of people that go to public school just add everyone in their school, and that's how they get those triple digits. My advice: Don't do the same thing. Just add the people you truly honestly talk to and like, and that's it.

LMFAO maybe you should get friends...

Well, me personally, I've friended almost everyone I've met throughout my years and most of my family. I have 90 friends through that.
The ones that have around that friend probably just about everyone that looks familiar to them.

As others have said, it's usually just random people from school/workplace/other social setting and they don't really know them, as well as some creepers who think they're hot. =P
There are people out there who accept a friend request for the sake of it.
Haha, having 54 friends isn't bad. It's good that you aren't adding random creepers. =P

I have 1,056 and I can tell you I know every single one of them. Most of them are family and people I went to high school with. There are 3 high schools in our area so usually you know most of the people from the other 2 as well. Plus people I have became friends with from other schools through playing sports or other friends that already knew them. I used to go to this summer camp thing. So there's those people. I have a huge family. And now I'm a freshman in college. It's quite easy to start adding up on friends. As long as I've at least met you, I'll add you.

I dont know, hell I dont even have a Facebook. I wouldnt have the time or even want to use it. I might make one before graduation next year just so I dont lose touch with everyone when I go to college.

Some people just add random people or people that they have only met like once. Also people add people because of the whole you may now this person thing.
