Shudder Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Does it mean anything if, say you've been msging a person a bit, and then they decide not to continue the convo but add you as a friend instead? i mean why add if you dont want to talk? in my case i found someone who went to the same highschool as me.. so i'm just curious. I had no idea where to post this question btw. so i just put it here lol.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kr356 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 i would say that they thought they would add you as a friend so they can msg you or talk to you later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillie Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 This is only the impression i get from my daughter & her friends but.. They seem to add as many people as possible because it makes them look popular.. Its like they are competing. Very sad yes.. As KR356 says though,maybe she will want to add you so that you can chat again at some point.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_22 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I doubt this will help much, but imho, FaceBook and the like (et al MySpace) all suck. They're horrible for relationships. Sure, the occasional re-acquaintance of the high school derelict is always used as the excuse for such memberships, but in the end you'll find that these things always ironically seem to be in the mix of every drama explosion caveat.

Shudder Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 cool.. i dont put too much weight in facebook anymore. some of my friends lives depends on it which is pretty sad imo. but yea i mostly use it as a networking tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misdirection Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hey Facebook is not as bad as myspace, with the whole "top friends" thing... but there is an application on it, i hate that app! And yea she probably added you to have more friends. MY friends ex recently joined facebook and added like half my friendslist, including my brother who she has never talked to, and also added my friend (her ex) ... I personally like facebook, because i love looking at my friends pictures and their whereabouts. Although i have a really bad habit of changing my status way too much >.

ghost69 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 maybe to talk to you later or know when you are on so they can avoid you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haven Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 People often fail to respond to messages on Facebook. Either they don't think you expect a response, or they don't have time, or they forget that they never replied. Don't take it personally. It's good that they added you as a friend. However, the thing about Facebook is that a lot people add almost everyone they have contact with, so the friends list doesn't really mean much. I have had people from my high school add me to their friends list, even though I never hung out with them outside of school (or even talked to them in classes about anything other than school work).
