Okay, I admit it. I am not insecure.
On numerous places this week, exactly the same message has popped up. "Three people have unfriended you." Then I can click here to see who and why. Well, maybe not why, but who.
The first time I was tempted to check it out, but then I remembered that my sister had closed her Facebook account. I don't need to be FB friends with someone I talk to pretty regularly.
Then another person told me they were getting exactly the same message. "Ignore it", I told you. It's the same garbage that pops up and wants you to see who is "looking for you".
I'm in the phone book, easy to find----and I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as privacy any more.
So if a real person has "unfriended" me, so long, it's been good to know ya. Mostly I think it's baloney. As unrelated to me as the message to check out singles in my area. (muffled laughter.)
I wanted to do a similar post. I wondered why someone would unfriend me. Was I boring? Was my blog not entertaining enough? Then I realized 'so what'. Their loss. It's not about the number of followers, but about the friends you make along the way.
ReplyDeleteI received the same message. I started down the path to discover who but had the same thought as you.
ReplyDeleteI had to unfriend someone in real life this week, and believe me...it's way worse.
ReplyDeleteYes, that sounds really painful if you have to make a decision to do that. Ouch!
DeleteI always notice when one of my "follow" numbers drops off. But it's really silly because even though I have 272 followers, I only get comments and converse with about 20 or so of them, so why do I care about the other 252????
ReplyDeleteThank goodness I don't have FB so at least I can't be unfriended there.
Besides, I'll always be YOUR friend and hope I can count on the vice and versa.
;-)
I'm smiling back. You can count on me. I have made some Real Life, In the Flesh Friends out of blogging and that's a good reason to keep at it.
DeleteSome of my Friends I only see on Fridays, so I should make the effort, I guess.
