I have this problem on facebook of people adding me to their friends list - people who DON’T know me. I’m selective about my friends list (now). If I don’t know you, you’re not getting in.

I had a friend who I didn’t know but I accepted her friend invite b/c I was new there and well I don’t know really why I accepted. We have 46 mutual friends so she must think that means we should be friends. We were in Turbo together but I only knew that b/c I recognized her picture. Still she never talked to me in class (we have 3 of our 46 mutual FB friends in this class).

Around Thanksgiving I wrote this thing on my wall asking what everyone was thankful for and that I know you all are going to mention family, friends etc and so on so let’s say something we’re thankful for outside of the normal things that we are ALL thankful for.
So this chick writes “family, friends, Jesus, and *church*! Can’t help but mention that. sorry to break the rules…..”
I de-friended her. She broke the rules, she’s gone.
I wasn’t sad about it, apparently neither was she, she still doesn’t talk to me in Turbo.
So I’ve gone through my friends list and de-friended several people that were more friends of friends than MY actual friend.

It just got me thinking about it this morning when I had a friend request from someone I didn’t know. He is friends with my sister so I asked her who he was. She thought he was someone else so she de-friended him. I denied him. Life is good.

Another chick asked to be my friend b/c *I assume* she’s friends with my other sister. I asked my sis “do I know her and just don’t remember?” she said “no she probably is just inviting you to be her friend b/c she and I are friends.” She and I have 57 friends in common.

You would think that I would know these people having that many friends in common. I don’t. Denied.
I love power.
