I only add people that I know but I don't mind a bunch of people being on my FB. I don't know if I've ever actually deleted anyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2480904 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 23:55:26 +0000 arosebyany 2480904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't even have a Facebook! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2480895 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 23:32:33 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2480895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No but I was never one to friend all kinds of random people. I actually know every single person I am Facebook friends with (even if I don't talk to them outside of Facebook anymore). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479547 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 09:05:28 +0000 Applesandbananas 2479547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also do this pretty frequently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479544 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 09:04:54 +0000 cat620 2479544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I go through my friends list every so often and delete people I either haven't talked to in years, or I literally can't remember who they are. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479517 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 08:52:58 +0000 snowjewelz 2479517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I have! There are people I outright unfriend b/c I'm not even sure why we're friends in the first place; then people I just unfollow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479502 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 08:45:13 +0000 LuLu Mom 2479502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep I usually do it once a year, it's nice to get rid of the people you don't' talk to anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479406 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 07:24:20 +0000 Adira 2479406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! I think collecting "friends" is just weird. I only want my FB friends to be people I actually care about. If I can't remember how I know you, you're getting deleted! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479339 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 00:27:10 +0000 MrsB2012 2479339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the time. I hate having people on there just because. I usually try to keep my friends list around 100 people. Once it starts getting past that, I go through and see if there's anyone I don't want on there anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479335 Tue, 01 Mar 2016 00:05:13 +0000 HLK208 2479335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really. Maybe 1 or 2 per year? Mostly just people who are offensive. I don't delete people because I don't talk to them anymore though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479327 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 23:42:44 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2479327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the time! A lot of the time I just put them on super restricted profile status, but I like to go through and do an un-friending every now and again. I actually un-friended a girl I used to volunteer with recently. Her daughter was born three days before my son, and I tried multiple times the first year of their lives to get the kids together for a playdate. She kept rejecting me or just not responding. When I un-friended her on facebook, she immediately re-added me. I laughed and didn't accept her! If you can't bother to be my friend in real life, there's no reason you should be looking at my profile! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479316 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 23:33:50 +0000 PawPrints 2479316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I unfollow more than I unfriend, but I did a big cleanout just a couple of weeks ago. I thought by the time I was finished that I would have reduced my list by at least 50%, but was disappointed to find I had only booted around 100 people. I guess it's harder than I thought. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479288 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 22:51:40 +0000 FancyGem 2479288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I unfollow people more than I unfriend them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479278 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 22:10:40 +0000 Torchwood 2479278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do it pretty regularly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479276 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 22:09:22 +0000 MoonMoon 2479276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I started deleting and unfollowing people at crazy rates, I decided fb wasn't contributing anything positive to my life so I deactivated almost 2 years ago. Such a relief! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479261 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 21:44:42 +0000 catomd00 2479261@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All the time. It's kind of mean, but I use the birthday feature to clean out instead of actually wishing people a happy birthday. :shocked: </p> <p>If I haven't seen you on a few years, don't plan on seeing you on purpose and don't talk on a regular basis, I see no real reason to be fb friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479177 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 20:36:56 +0000 Meow 2479177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I block them instead of unfriending them so they just won't see me on FB (unless they search from a different account.) I just think it's awkward for either the unfriend-er or unfriend-ee.</p> <p>Plus this way the can't send you another friend request cause believe it or not plenty of people do even after being unfriended. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479116 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 19:54:56 +0000 autumnleaves 2479116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks all. I am at the point that I haven't talked to some people in years, I don't miss them, and don't feel like sharing personal photos and updates. Time to delete. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479109 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 19:49:28 +0000 regberadaisy 2479109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! And you just reminded me to go do it. I unfriend about 15 friends. I'm ruthless. If I haven't had any kind of contact with you in a year, then you're gone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479090 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 19:38:33 +0000 Alba4 2479090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heck yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479071 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 19:21:48 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2479071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not super picky about who I will friend but I delete people if I find them annoying. I don't usually bother with unfollowing, unless it's a family member. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479062 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 19:04:55 +0000 MsMini 2479062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do a friend list cleanup about once a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479052 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 18:45:40 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2479052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I had FB I did this all the time. In fact I would tell people ahead of time they have a few days to look at all my pics because really that's why people friend each other, but then I would delete them. These people were more so work "friends" or friends of friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479048 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 18:43:23 +0000 stiletto_mom 2479048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. I do it every year or so. Sometimes I have guys on there that were my friend's bf and they had split and no one talks to them etc.</p> <p>Or like people from high school that never grew out of their passive aggressiveness or backhanded compliments. I don't have time for that shit. Bye. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-deleted-friends-from-fb#post-2479014 Mon, 29 Feb 2016 18:13:57 +0000 autumnleaves 2479014@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you ever deleted "friends" from Facebook because you aren't really friends with them/don't stay in touch?<br /> I cleaned my friend list about 5 years ago when I switched jobs and am thinking about doing it again now before LO2 arrives. </p>
