[Antonio]

Well,i started to hate that website,every day the same.But i don't want to lose my contact with friends in other country's because i am planning to move from my country and to live in Turkey.
Another thing i don't like is the fact that i have friends which i don't know in person.All those photos,likes and news are making me depressed..i started to fell i am nothing in life and that they are so much better than me,have so much more fun than me and i had really BAD experience on facebook i am not gonna forget that never in my life!
So can you give me some tips on keeping my contacts with a few friends and give me more reasons i should quit it.If you had the same problem but you resolved it please tell me.

You can keep your account, just stop spending every minute on it.
I have an account, I use it maybe twice a month because indeed, every day it's the same sh*t :-)

Remove all people from your friends list that aren't real friends, just keep the ones you care about and family. There is no competition on having the most amount of people on your friends list.

Removing your account will stop you from contacting those people when you want... just adjust your facebook behaviour.

I quit Facebook ages ago. I realized very quickly that the people I knew over Facebook weren't the people I knew in real life. Facebook is really just a mechanism that people use to promote their self image in an attempt to make other people think that they are "special".

Just keep that in mind. I still have a Facebook, but I really only keep it so I can contact people (and for those ("LOG IN WITH FACEBOOK" buttons on some sites, and also because some of the artists I listen to require you to like their Ffacebook page to download their tracks).

The trick is just to never open it up UNLESS you want to talk to someone. Turn off the notifications, delete the shortcuts and the bookmarks. Don't be tempted to browse people's pages or photos. Facebook is undeniably the best way to keep connected to people, you just have to get past everyone using it to fortify their self-images and fantasies.
