[QUOTE="donna723, post: 295002, member: 1883"] I would never put someone on as a 'friend' that I didn't know (or at least feel like I did :happy:). I have a few people on there who I hadn't seen since high school and I had forgotten they even existed, even a few that I didn't really know very well in school. But it's still nice to be in touch with them and these people have connections to other people we went to school with. The only ones I ever "Ignored' were a few from the dog-related board I go on all the time. There's a couple thousand members, several hundred of them active members. They have a page on Facebook. Several I 'know' better than the others. But I got several friend requests from members I didn't even know at all - just their names - they probably sent them to everybody. The only thing I have in common with them is having the same breed of dog. These I just politely ignored. But I gotta tell you this one ... one day I was super bored and was searching out names, and Lord only knows why I did it but I came up with my first husband! :sick: We were married for seven disasterous years and I haven't seen him (nor wanted to!) in 32 years! I'm getting to the good part ... the picture he has on there was taken FORTY years ago - [U]a picture that I took[/U] - of him sitting on a motorcycle lookin' like a rock star! OMG! Who would do that! He's probably old, fat and bald by now! Does he think that people will believe he's still in his twenties? I toyed with the idea for weeks and then a few days ago I finally did it - I sent him a message (NOT a friend request) saying that I believe that's the first time I ever saw anyone use a 40 year old photo on Facebook and how that was really pathetic! I don't really expect or want a reply, but it sure was fun to do it! [/QUOTE]
