If I saw someone on the street and they wouldn't stop to say hello, why do I want them cluttering up my life anywhere?<BR/><BR/>I ignore all group and page requests but I have to confess a weakness for Challenge Sudoku. :o)Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00295897699747916640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31822452.post-79948476942403208712009-04-05T14:05:00.000-04:002009-04-05T14:05:00.000-04:00what??!! how can we be sure we are true friends if...what??!! how can we be sure we are true friends if you dont take the 'are you strawberry shortcake or rainbow bright' quiz? and how will i know the depth of your friendship if i dont know what 'color' you really are?!!! how can a girl cope with this??

I have moved and been able to connect with friends in my new city as well as keep in touch with friends in my old city. As I've gone through a tough time with this bike accident, I've felt blessed and supported. Also, I've done a Bible Study long distance with my in-laws. So while I do agree with most of what you've said, I do feel that with boundaries in place it is a good tool. All tools are good or bad based on how you use them!Yarnin_Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07504102893325655783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31822452.post-10414962497482976232009-04-02T21:31:00.000-04:002009-04-02T21:31:00.000-04:00Jen, thank you so much for giving us all good stuf...Jen, thank you so much for giving us all good stuff to ponder. I have to say though, for purely selfish reasons, I am glad you had a Facebook account because it is the sole reason that you and I were able to reconnect. I do totally understand where you are coming from, however. I think the bottom line is that it is all about balance and boundaries. Even good things, left to run amuck without limits, can end up being destructive. Thanks for the reality check! And thank you for always being 'straight up'! :o)Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14439733030208675622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31822452.post-88995638009236166872009-04-01T09:57:00.000-04:002009-04-01T09:57:00.000-04:00I've never seen such long comments on a post befor...I've never seen such long comments on a post before.

Thanks for the thought provoking post and the smiles you brought to my face. (I needed those today) I agree with some of what you said and I am not the type of person to be offended if you "unfriended" (is that a word?) me. I have found facebook very helpful to me during this month to keep friends and family updated on what has been happening with my mother. If I had a blog set up, that would probably have been more helpful but I don't have time for that right now. LOL So, whether I keep up with your life and thoughts on facebook or via your blog...I look forward to what you have to say. :-)Neecykayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01181934167532185188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31822452.post-2395857196324795542009-03-31T20:07:00.000-04:002009-03-31T20:07:00.000-04:00Jen, I don't know how I did it, but somehow my fac...Jen, I don't know how I did it, but somehow my facebook is really private, so I have never gotten one friend request. For someone to be my friend, I have to ask them... so I just have kept it really close. I don't do apps or anything else; I keep things to a minimum and make sure I do it only when I enjoy it. So that's a thought ... maybe you can do that if you want to keep your account! Just something to think about.<BR/>Karen in FLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31822452.post-172314697786087412009-03-31T16:24:00.000-04:002009-03-31T16:24:00.000-04:00I love your honesty and your thoughts Jen. I have...I love your honesty and your thoughts Jen. I have many of the same issues with it, but have to admit, I do like it.<BR/><BR/>I don't understand why somebody that I wasn't even friends with 20 years ago in college or high school would want to be my fb friend now. I also agree that it's weird about people I barely know wanting to friend me. My rule is that if it's not someone that I would want to talk with in real life, then I don't accept their request. Also, if I'm not willing to at least write them a quick hello, I don't accept their request.<BR/><BR/>I was totally addicted to blogging this Summer and then stopped that. I then jumped into fb and again was totally addicted. I stopped getting the email notifications which helped tremendously. I wish I could be as addicted to reading my Bible! Hmmm....makes you think.<BR/><BR/>I do think there are some benefits to fb, I love all of the friends that I've been able to reconnect with. I also love being able to send a quick message to my nieces & nephews in college...saying grandma's been trying to call you...she's worried...call her. :)<BR/><BR/>I can't stand the apps and quizzes. I don't mind other people taking them, but I don't need to know about it. I love reading the status updates...I have a few friends who are so funny. I worry about people who put too much info on their fb status updates. I guess that's my two cents on it...not that you asked. :)<BR/><BR/>PS. I agree...your drawing is great!Kathi Roachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14561294422476174702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31822452.post-85369245866882554872009-03-31T12:52:00.000-04:002009-03-31T12:52:00.000-04:00LOVE this post, Jen (of course I would being the u...LOVE this post, Jen (of course I would being the unabomber that I am!)!! Your doodle was HILARIOUS!! This post triggered so many thoughts all at once, I probably won't remember them all, but I'll try... First and foremost, I sooooo appreciate your transparency. That's one of the reasons why we are real life, not FB, friends - because you are frank and direct and real. I wish more people were like that. :) <BR/><BR/>A few other thoughts... You have just totally affirmed my hesitation to get on FB in the first place. Everything you describe is everything I feared about it (well, maybe not feared, but was concerned about). In fact, I have already established criteria for myself on who I will and won't friend if I ever do get on there. I'll share those with you over Mexican dinner (soon I hope!). I just want the term "friend" to mean something. I've never been one for small talk and FB just seems to me from an outsider's perspective like a whole lot of small talk (...and boasting, as you so aptly put). If it's a tool to maintain relationships, then great. But if it's a hindrance to your real life relationships, then you are so right to examine it carefully.<BR/><BR/>As far as that guy I sat behind for one semester in college is concerned, I will definitely friend him - I married him!

In fact I recently received a friend request from someone who attended high school with me, but with whom I don't recall ever having an actual conversation. We were never "friends" in real life, it's been 20+ years since we were in the same zip code, and now she gets huffy because I don't "friend" her? Come on! I do use FB to share pics with family and <I>real</I> friends, so I won't add just anyone to my list because I agree, some things should be kept more personal. So don't be offended if I don't "friend" you on FB :-)Michelle with a Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05366298105622593013noreply@blogger.com
