Merry Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 A friend just posted that she was cleaning out her friends's list and she made two boxes to check if her friends want to continue on her list or not. I feel like this is a bit rude but I'm not sure why. Should I be offended? I think I would rather just be dropped if she doesn't want to keep me than be put in the position of being the one to do the deciding for her. That seems kind of cold and impersonal to me.

Unicorn. Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 That little box thing has been going around for years. Just ignore it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMamaBird Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I never check that one. My real friends want to keep me whether I check them or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the same. Its popped up on a bunch of pages today -- I almost think when someone clicks on a choice on someone ELSE's page it shows up on theirs -- and it doesn't say a name. Just "continue to be my friend" -- so the next person reading it thinks THAT person put it up. Etc. Rather than rudeness, its just a facebook chain letter. Except in this case I think people don't realize that is what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2cents Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 That thing is just some facebook app thing that went viral. It isn't a virus. Many people just get it from their other friends and without realizing it send it to their contacts. Just delete it so you don't pass it on.
