Why are people so odd?

Some girl I hardly knew at school added me as a "friend" a while ago. I foolishly accepted, but never exchanged messages or anything with her. In fact I don't even know why I accepted, just for the sake of it perhaps.

Had a clear out of clowns/people I don't really know, or even talk to anymore including said weirdo. Bear in mind I haven't even spoken a word to her since 1999 or care one iota about her pathetic life, she has sent me a message saying:

hiya chris howcomes you have deleted me off your friends list???

She's an idiot. Typical tracksuit wearing breeder with upteen sprogs and no bloke/prospects. I beleive she makes Greetings Cards to supplement her meagre income support life.

How sad do you have to be to ask why some bloke you never knew who now lives 220 miles away and hasn't spoken to you in god knows how many years has removed you as a friend?

Starting to think these social sites are nowt but freak magnets.

I'm on there because in the line of work that I do I'll spend short terms in places, make friends and move on. When this involves multiple countries it's hard to stay in touch as people are always chagning email addressess and phone numbers. Facebook is handy as it's quick an easy to get back in touch with them.

But situations like said weirdo above, and some people adding every application under the sun making their page take about 15 minutes to load and even longer to find anything usefull, and morons just adding people as their "friends" for the sake of it to increase their number of "friends" start to make me wonder if there's any point in it all.

conversely, why did you add her in the first place?

i only add friends on facebook, so don't really have to deal with stuff like that!
 
How sad do you have to be to write a lengthy post about said person?

Maybe she was curious why you deleted her? You did accept being added as a friend in the first place. :confused:
 
you seem bitter,

if someone i know adds me, fair enough, if they keep inviting me to 'fun wall' etc and crap like that, they get warned, then deleted :0
 
Have you tried reinstalling facebook?




I'm still laughing from that thread :p
 
I just accept them and move on with my life. I don't really worry if I don't talk to them.
 
I removed myself from Facebook a while ago - I've had a couple of texts from people asking me if I'm upset with them, but generally I think it was a good idea :)
 
lol thats why i dont like FB and dont use it - cos people seem to care so much about their number of friends etc, if i have a friend i want to contact i can call/email/MSN them

when i say i dont use it, people are like :o, losers

No, not bitter. I don't know the girl at all. In fact, I didn't recognise her from the friend request as she has changed her name since school. I accepted the request through morbid curiosity so that I could look at her profile and see who she was.

It's the whole sadness of messaging someone asking why you were deleted that gets me. She doesn't get told when she is deleted from a friends list so she must have been counting the number of friends or something to notice I had gone.

Then to find my details again and message me, taking into account that since she was accepted as a "friend" she has not once sent me any kind of greeting/message, and ask why I have deleted her seems rather odd.

Definately not bitter though - can't imagine what I would have to feel bitter about? apart from the fact of course that my friend at school was getting laid aged 14 whereas I was still ... urm I'll leave it there.
 
I only accept invites from people if I'd be willing to let them have my phone number. I also go through deleting people I don't speak to every now and again.

It's amazing how petty people get about Facebook. There's a girl works here who added me, I don't know her or particularly like her, so I didn't add her. She then went around asking my mates why I hadn't added her! Funny old world.

Same, seems like a complete waste of time. Anyone I actually want to talk to I either see in real life regularly, or I can catch them on MSN/text etc.
 
I joined a Backstreet boys fan club to make fun of a friend who was a member and I think I made a joke about the lead singer.

Few months later I got some Random russian girl giving me abuse about backstreet boys!

Here is the message she sent me:

Backstreet Boys is the best group in the world! How dare you insult me and my favourite band, you probably haven't ever listened to decent music before, **** off!!!!!!
