I've been unfriended several times on FB, even by family members. I just chose not to do anything about it, since they've already made the decision. I kind of want to add some of them back since its been a while now, but am afraid to. What do you guys think? Should I even care?

Basically just say forget you too then. If they didn't want me on their list then they shouldn't have added me in the first place. They were usually people I wasn't close to anyway so it didn't matter. Some people just add you just to stalk for a while..

Well it's extended family, if that matters. Still family, though, and yeah it was a bit hurtful. I don't even know the reasons why; They never told me.

I just wonder why they did it, but other then that, I just ignore them. If they don't want to be my friend fine, I don't care.

You should not care. Please proceed with your life. Thank you for playing.

Edit: On a serious note, I think a good rule is if its someone you can talk about it to in person, then do. Otherwise, do nothing.

so you don't have to waste your time calling patrick to go out for happy hour or so you can ask lenny where the speed trap was. Facebook is awesome, get with the times. :cool:

don't take it personal i'd say. it's just fb. i know peoples too that i do not want on my fb even though i still want to keep in touch with them. maybe they have no idea this is somewhat of a deal to you or maybe they even miss-clicked something and think you unfriended them since you disappeared of their list too. point being, it's fairly impossible to really draw conclusions about what it means if you ask me.

anyway, only one thing to do, if you still want to hear from them just send them an old-school e-mail or call them up.

Is it really that insulting when someone you don't really know or care about unfriends you? I don't use Facebook myself, but I'd imagine that you'd have to clean out your friendslist once in a while.

I didn't really care if I noticed I got unfriended. I actually got rid of FB two weeks ago. It has gone to crap and is boring now. FB has become big brother...

It depends why they unfriended you. I was hesistant at adding some family members as I didn't want them going through my photo's, etc. Luckily FB has a private feature so they can't see things that I don't want them to. Maybe they deleted you because you annoyed them or they didn't want you posting stuff on their wall, photo's or even seeing their photos. If however they unfriended you due to a petty dispute, go ahead. Also remember it's just FB and its not personal . Too many people get angry because someone did something on FB, my attitude to it is "F*** them, it doesn't affect me'. Its not personal, it doesn't mean they hate you, etc. Although 99% of the time, the reason friends disappear from my FB is because they deactivated.

I think it was because of a dispute outside of FB, but I wasn't a part of it. They had a death in the family and my brother was having marital problems. They thought I was trying to get in the middle of everything, so I gave them their space. A year and a half later, it seems we've gotten used to the space.

If it's someone that I didn't think would unfriend me, I'm like "What? :o:(" and then just do nothing.

None of my actual friends would ever do that.

If they did, I would drive over to their house beat them up and make them friend me again by smashing thier face against the keyboard.

It either never happened or I never noticed it happened before. If it did happen it'd more than likely be someone I don't care about, so I'd move on with my life.

For all the people who don't have Facebook, I find it kind of odd that you would rather talk to people you've never met in real life here in Gamespot.

You don't get notified but its still obvious someone removed you or deactivated their account when you see your friend count dropped.
