Last week I lost a Facebook friend, oh they didn’t die or anything serious like that they just unfriended (or is it defriended) me. My rant this week is not about being unfriended, clearly there is no drama there. I myself have unfriended a few people over my Facebook years, for various reasons. My annoyance is that Facebook doesn’t send you a notification telling you that you have been unfriended by “so and so”.
I went from 91 friends to 90 Facebook friends and for the life of me I CAN’T figure out whom it is that I am not friends with anymore and that REALLY REALLY annoys me. It’s not the first time Ihave been defriended and I have set up a little process in my head to figure out who it is that has deserted me.
Firstly I make sure it’s not hubby and that I am still listed as married, well you never know what I may have done to upset Jason, check. Then I do the 7/8 people that I converse with on Facebook regularly with, check. Then the dozen or so family members, check. Next I do the 4 Facebook friends I have never actually met in person, check. Then I do primary/secondary school friends, check. Ex-colleagues, check. Finally I do “others”, check.
So last week I went through the process several times and still I could not figure out who it was that decided that the no longer wished to be friends with me. Okay so if I can’t even fathom out who it is then I suppose it’s no BIG loss to my life and really it’s just my curiosity getting the better of me but if I knew who it was who unfriended me I could make an assessment as to why.
So to conclude this rant I think it would be a fabulous idea if Facebook sent out notifications to inform you that you have been unfriended by ______________ for the following reason(s) ___________. It would make life so much easier.
