I have few FB friends. I have lots of regular friends and even some friends I consider BFFs! Not all of my friends are my FB friends. I have many family members. Some are my FB friends & some are not.
Why do I have so few FB friends? Why are some friends & family my FB friends while others are not?
Technology.
Or more precisely, my lack of technology "know-how"
That's pretty much it.
I "friended" people when I first joined FB. I knew nothing & simply was looking for ways to be connected w/my daughter, son in-law & grandchild since they live over 700 miles away!
As I learned more about FB, its privacy & security, I knew I didn't want things I post to be sent every which way in cyberspace!
So, if you became my "friend" on FB before I knew what I was doing... congratulations! You're not only my FB friend, but you're a LUCKY one too! You get to see my updates about Carlotta!
It's very rare occurrence where I ask for or accept a "friend invitation" on FB from anyone these days! Moments of weakness or curiosity may happen... once in a while!
Not to worry though!
You're still my friend. You're still my family. I can be reached in all manners of communication... home phone, cell phone, snail mail, email, smoke signals, commenting on my blog, bicycle messengers, visits (w/a "heads up" phone call please!)!
I figure, if someone really wanted to reach out to me or if I wanted to reach out to them...
we will find a way!
You must foolishly think very highly of yourself if you allow yourself to be offended if I do not accept your FB invitation to be your "friend!"
To believe you may have offended me is an even sillier notion!!
If these things are true, I'd rather not be your friend or family, on FB or otherwise!
Are you my friend?
If you need me to FB friend you, then... no.
