Facebook makes me angry/sad?

IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO READ THIS, DON'T ANSWER...

SURE Facebook is a great (free) way to keep in touch with friends and family. But when you have "friends" and family on Facebook who don't even talk to you, what's the point? The reasons it makes me angry are: 1) I can't really do anything on it. I've been banned from commenting on fan pages which takes the fun away (I don't know why, and it's been 4 months now). 2) The only person I got an account for deleted me because his girl friend thinks we're boinking eachother (he lives 2 states away!! wtf?) 3) I get the same damn people liking and RARELY commenting on my statuses and posts. Seriously the same f*cking person EVERY time. 4) It's pathetic but I do get sad when I see that other people have tons of friends, people post on their walls, and likes on all their dumbass statuses. 5) Seeing where people whom I went to high school with are at this present time makes me sad. They're getting married, or engaged, or have kids now, or have great jobs..blah blah blah. (I'm 22 btw) I wish I never made an account. This isn't my first account either. I tried deleting it, but when you have zero friends you get lonely. So I made another one. But it's the same bullshit.

I know the logical thing to do is to delete it and never look back. I mean, I truly believe I will never hang out with any of the "friends" I have on their. Most of the people have my number so if they wanted to kick it (I doubt they will) they can call me. But part of me feels like I'll be missing out. I also know that some people will be annoyed that I deleted the account because I have added them around 4 times because I keep going through "I hate Facebook" stages. I would love to get rid of this burden we know as Facebook. I don't know how to go about it.

Please give me some similar stories you've had regarding Facebook and what you did about it..thanks.
@Your Uncle Dodge get the f*ck outta here. You don't know ME. I am a very loyal and friendly person. And what do I get, people who USE me. Don't tell me what you think I am. Because you're wrong.

I read this post and I have NO SYMPATHY. Delete your FB account and let those whom enjoy it have it.

If you are getting upset because people won't talk to you, you're jealous of those with tons of friends, and you're getting kicked off fan pages, you are too immature for social networking.

Facebook should be such a microscopic spec of your life If you are happy with your real life something like FB shouldn't drag you down. Try to find things that make you happy in the real world then maybe share your happiness on Facebook.

hahah, yeah. facebook sucks and i don't use it too often anymore. my statuses often get like, 5 likes average. i'm on twitter a lot more and although i never really get fav's or anything, i don't have to see a bunch of locals and their lame lives all over my newsfeed. instead, i follow accounts i find interesting and it's actually entertaining/worth my time.

whenever i do go on facebook, i usually just use it as a chatroom sort of thing (if that. i barely talk to people these days period). anyways, i find that the less you post (deleting old posts and posting very seldom and keeping your life out of facebook as much as u can helps a ton in terms of hating it less), and the less u go on it, it just won't bother u as much.

try inboxing some of the people, and be pretty straightforward. just ask them if they want to hang out, and then casually hang out. you'll make friends. they just take a significant amount of effort (especially from the pursuer) from both ends. make sure to be as chill as possible. people will like u and there are always people that are willing to hang.

now that i use facebook merely to spectate, i don't delete it anymore. might be the same for u. good luck.

I can relate. My first Facebook account I updated my status a lot but the same people liked my status over and over again, but you have those people who could update their status about ANY stupid thing in their lives and they would get like 80 likes. The only reason I have an account now is because I got talked into it by some new friends I made, but I do absolutely nothing on it.

If it really bothers you, try sending a message to some of your friends that you trust, some of your close friends. Either that or just deactivate your account. Really though, not only are you better off without a Facebook account, but the world just needs to get rid of social media altogether.
