A mysterious friend on Facebook? - Dummy - 03-17-2014 04:30 AM Quite recently I've received a request from someone to be a friend on my facebook.And the name used by this friend is very familiar. It belongs to a girl from my neighborhood. On accepting "her" request I wrote several times on "her" wall. But until today she never respond. I wander why this particular person is doing this. I thought of asking "her" about the facebook, just to satisfy my curiousity, but on second thought I'm worried that it might backfired on me. This problem keep bugging me, I just can't ignore it. So what shall I do about it? - Shelby T. - 03-17-2014 04:34 AM . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . ,.-‘”. . . . . . . . . .``~., . . . . . . . .. . . . . .,.-”. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .“-., . . . . .. . . . . . ..,/. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ”:, . . . . . . . .. .,?. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\, . . . . . . . . . /. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ,} . . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ,:`^`.} . . . . . . . ./. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ,:”. . . ./ . . . . . . .?. . . __. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . :`. . . ./ . . . . . . . /__.(. . .“~-,_. . . . . . . . . . . . . . ,:`. . . .. ./ . . . . . . /(_. . ”~,_. . . ..“~,_. . . . . . . . . .,:`. . . . _/ . . . .. .{.._$;_. . .”=,_. . . .“-,_. . . ,.-~-,}, .~”; /. .. .} . . .. . .((. . .*~_. . . .”=-._. . .“;,,./`. . /” . . . ./. .. ../ . . . .. . .\`~,. . ..“~.,. . . . . . . . . ..`. . .}. . . . . . ../ . . . . . .(. ..`=-,,. . . .`. . . . . . . . . . . ..(. . . ;_,,-” . . . . . ../.`~,. . ..`-.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . ..\. . /\ . . . . . . \`~.*-,. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ..|,./.....\,__ ,,_. . . . . }.>-._\. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .|. . . . . . ..`=~-, . .. `=~-,_\_. . . `\,. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\ . . . . . . . . . .`=~-,,.\,. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .\ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . `:,, . . . . . . . . . . . . . `\. . . . . . ..__ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .`=-,. . . . . . . . . .,%`>--==`` . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . _\. . . . . ._,-%. . . .. - Chris L - 03-17-2014 04:42 AM She sounds like a Facebook "friend collector." My guess is that she wants to be one of those people on Facebook who have "hundreds" of friends but who never really spends much time with 99% of them. If she has an unusually large number of friends, this is why she is doing this. It isn't because of you, and you don't have to let it get to you. - 357 - 03-17-2014 04:56 AM WHY add someone you barely know? why do kids not get that? thats not what Facebook, Hi5, Myspace etc are for, its for friends, family, colleagues, that type of thing. i never add anyone that makes me scratch my head. Who really knows what her intentions were. maybe her computer is down, internet turned off or having trouble. who really knows. - Turi! x3 - 03-17-2014 05:03 AM Well, some people love to have friends, maybe thats all she's doing? Oh, and maybe you could just ask her, "How did you find me on this huge website?" or something in a joking way, not to make it all awkward and tense. But if you're going to talk to her like that, say it on chat, or in a message, not on her wall. If you post it on her wall, she might get angry. Or if you see her in the supermarket or something, be friendly and say, "Thanks for the Facebook add". (Meaning adding you to her friends). - Alex - 03-17-2014 05:10 AM People on facebook don’t really want to be your friend, a lot of them are looking to pad their friend box and will add anyone and everyone no matter who they are as long at it makes their friend box read a high number. You have a choice. You can leave things as they are and ignore her using her has a number in your box as she has done to you. Or you an un-friend her and leave your facebook for only those who are your real friends. Confronting her will only make you look desperate and needy to her and that could add up making more issues for you then would be worth it. That is the beauty of facebook you can un-friend her and unless she looks she will not be told. If she confronts you, you can say. “ Oh gosh I am sorry I did a facebook purge and I took off everyone but those who I interact with daily. I didn’t mean to offend; it’s just that we never really talked on the facebook account so I didn’t think you would miss me. Sorry.”
