Four.

At least two of my exes are hostile to me and have refused friend requests. The rest, I haven't even asked.

Hm a respectable 4. Including one that well it just would have seemed mean to "ignore" the friend request but it's def not changing my life that he's on there.

I don't think I have ever refused a friend request. Who cares? If they bug me, I can block them later.

There's the kernel of an idea for what could be a popular FB app here.

but if you achieved orgasm from someone brushing your hair, or something like that, then maybe that should apply too -- not gonna say what is and isn't sexual contact here

It's great when they turn into babes. Usually they seem to turn into cattle. Or so it is with my long-lost acquaintances. But there are a few that are hotter at 35 than they ever were at 20.

a Gioconda kinda dirty look (kenan), Thursday, 16 July 2009 18:32 (fifteen years ago)

Zero. But then I only have like 12 freinds on fb and they are all close friends. I only use fb to keep up with friends who are scattered across the country and living abroad. I guess I'm not really using fb for the purpose it was designed for.

male exes: one, no fixed location for him.

why keep contact? because we're mature people who run into each other every so often, and for the most part, actually continue to like each other. much of the break-up stuff involved either me being an asshole or sexual incompatibility.

I have 104, and even among them there are a few that I haven't seen for months or years.

Tuomas, Friday, 17 July 2009 09:32 (fifteen years ago)

I have 400 and something and don't see that as that large a number ... some of my friends have over 1000.

Are you/they really friends with all those people?

Tuomas, Friday, 17 July 2009 09:34 (fifteen years ago)

a lot of them are friendly professional relationships ...

about 20 or so are friends from childhood/highschool
another 20 or so are friends from college
probably about 20 - 30 are people who I hang out/party/have serious personal relationships with on a regular basis.

well I'm married to a limping, crescent-shaped abortion (sarahel), Friday, 17 July 2009 09:40 (fifteen years ago)

I'd count about 300-400 of them as actual friends from one time or another, around 200 of whom I hang out with on a regular basis or would if I could.

The rest are old school people, friendly acquaintances/old work people, people I like on the internet and cute girls I meet at parties and never see again.

Also a fair number of friends-of-friends I get on with well but never actually go out of my way to see.

Desmond Decca Aitkenhead (Matt DC), Friday, 17 July 2009 09:51 (fifteen years ago)

and as far as sexual involvement goes - one. The rest aren't on facebook for various reasons.

whoops - I forgot about two people - but I don't remember their full names ... they could be on facebook.

Are you/they really friends with all those people?

Yes, they are all BFF and hold hands while chanting hymns. It does get a bit crowded in her one bedroom appartment though.

i have like 60 facebook friends. anybody with over 200 is just a bit needy and too soggy to click "no".

One, btw.

#/.'#/'@ilikecats (g-kit), Friday, 17 July 2009 12:23 (fifteen years ago)

I click "no" quite a bit ... there are the people I have no clue who they are, the ones I've never met or had any meaningful interaction with (though I know who they are), the ones that are creepy, and the people from high school who weren't my friends then ...

well I'm married to a limping, crescent-shaped abortion (sarahel), Friday, 17 July 2009 12:26 (fifteen years ago)

I've clicked no to one person on six different occasions and he doesn't seem to get the message. Especially as I have no idea who he is.

Desmond Decca Aitkenhead (Matt DC), Friday, 17 July 2009 12:32 (fifteen years ago)

I just don't respond at all to a lot of them, especially the creepy ones.

well I'm married to a limping, crescent-shaped abortion (sarahel), Friday, 17 July 2009 12:35 (fifteen years ago)

But Matt we've met on at least 3 occasions :(

j/k it's not me

I've only had to turn down like 2 FB friend requests, they were from people I went to school with that I barely spoke to while we were at school, no idea why they'd want to be my friend 15 years later.

Oh and answer to question is a pitiful 3. It was going to be 2 til I remembered that blurry one nighter (that has been a source of much mirth to mutual friends)

i have about 270 and there's only a few i could not see myself hanging around with.
oh - and i've been "involved" with 19.

Most of my FB friends are coworkers; I work at what is pretty much a high school for grownups and we're required to have a facebook account here

Beth Parker, Friday, 17 July 2009 20:41 (fifteen years ago)

I wish I was the royal trux (sunny successor), Friday, 17 July 2009 21:44 (fifteen years ago)

Should I count the ones that I've deleted or only the ones I'm still FB friends with?

Nate Carson, Saturday, 18 July 2009 04:20 (fifteen years ago)

Ok 8. But this includes people I'm still friends with now who I dated in the early 90s...

Nate Carson, Saturday, 18 July 2009 04:27 (fifteen years ago)

Oh, and for the sake of statistics, I have 578 FB friends. Not that I want that many. They just keep finding me.

I have 95 'friends', the vast majority of whom I haven't seen or spoken to in years. Most of the rest are people I'm acquainted with in some professional capacity or another, or family. Barely any of the very small cluster of my favoritest people are even on Facebook.

I guess I just wasn't made for these social networking times.

Seven.

chap, Saturday, 18 July 2009 12:14 (fifteen years ago)

I have 542 friends or something on it, I have a lot of people who've added me cos of my blog/writing or whatever though.

I'd say I've about 100 on it that I'd consider good friends that I know well.

Local Garda, Saturday, 18 July 2009 13:11 (fifteen years ago)

Five. A lot of my exes don't seem to be on FB--probably because when I was younger I mostly dated women who were around 8-12 years older than me, and they may think FB is only for the young.

The girl I had a one-night stand with 20 years ago keeps coming up in the People You May Know box--since she's friends with some of my friends. I keep hesitating to add her, in hopes that she'll friend request me first.

President Keyes, Saturday, 18 July 2009 14:28 (fifteen years ago)

One. I've been in a relationship for 15 years now though. Going by Abbot's "seen naked" qualification it's at least 50 plus though, thanks to living near lakes with saunas for a long time.

I've got like 200 friends and other than maybe 10 high school people I haven't seen in ages and two friends-of-friends who I've never actually met, I know all of them pretty well. There's only 2 real life close friends who aren't on Facebook.

joygoat, Saturday, 18 July 2009 14:41 (fifteen years ago)
