I prefer not even having that number of how many followers/friends in my head at any time, so I won't even notice if it goes down. It's important to know how people react to what you write, but sometimes the unfriending / unfollowing has absolutely nothing to do with that.Peggy Eddlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10241451940725996650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4585846587670117304.post-36157118207416516492011-10-19T17:37:45.002-07:002011-10-19T17:37:45.002-07:00The only reasons I can think of is unsavoury conte...The only reasons I can think of is unsavoury content or uncertainty about someone you have befriended. The only person I have ever unfriended posted several really personal and embarrassing remarks about herself within minutes after I friended her. I really didn't want to hear about it! :)Diane Stringam Tolleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09629946536985545457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4585846587670117304.post-85651450164567264422011-10-19T16:25:12.454-07:002011-10-19T16:25:12.454-07:00I friended a couple of people that I didn't kn...I friended a couple of people that I didn't know, but who knew a friend of mine, so they could help me with Castle Age. I don't play it anymore, but I've left them in my list. I don't know why. I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, I guess.<br /><br />If someone unfriended me, I'd rather not know. I play an online game where you can IGNORE someone such that you never see what they're chatting and they can't directly talk to you either. The game has a command so that you can see who is ignoring you. As you say, sometimes you know why. Sometimes, you're like, whatever!Jon Spellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13283068961865370674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4585846587670117304.post-90268309784284064082011-10-19T12:41:45.347-07:002011-10-19T12:41:45.347-07:00I *think* there's actually a rule on Facebook ...I *think* there's actually a rule on Facebook that an app isn't supposed to tell you if someone unfriended you (also, they're not supposed to tell you who looked at your FB profile). So I think you're right; there's a reason they don't want people knowing that. They probably worry that if the wrong friend unfriends you, you'll leave the social network. Or, you know, do something a lot worse.Jordan McCollumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16523599384793856702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4585846587670117304.post-79838004623321266072011-10-19T11:30:41.446-07:002011-10-19T11:30:41.446-07:00I'm with you, Stephanie. I worked with someone...I'm with you, Stephanie. I worked with someone for years who (I found out later) didn't like me. I'd never have known based upon our interaction. I only found out when a coworker who was moving on to another job came in to say goodbye and said "I really like you. I don't care what *** says." And he was serious. <br /><br />My feelings were hurt a little at first, but then I thought about it. This guy wasn't a friend. Our families didn't socialize away from work. If he managed to keep a totally professional persona on while we were at work, go him.<br /><br />It's just smoother when we don't know.Donna K.
