Who Are Those Friendster Buddies??
July 13, 2007 – 3:40 amA couple of days ago, I received a Friendster Friend Request. It is weird because this is was from a rather prominent local blogger and while I do not know him personally, he is chums with one of my friends, also a very popular local blogger. I am sure my friend has never mentioned me to him before so I wondered why he suddenly could come across my Friendster profile and then send a friend request.
I have been a Friendster member for years at the request of a good friend but I never did anything to my profile and never seek anyone out to “add”. I can never understand why people can link up with total strangers and call them friends.
In this case we are now linked up and then what? I may have accepted his request but we never even exchanged a note.
The other day when I logged into my account, I saw a few people in my friends list and wondered, “Who the heck are they?” You see, I don’t even have more than twenty people in my list and I don’t even remember who they are!
The problem with me is that when acquaintances request an “add”, I will accept it but after a while of not keeping in touch, I would have forgotten about them totally. What makes it worse is that some do not use a universal online ID and their Friendster user name is not something that I recognise straightaway.
I think I am going to delete them from my list. When I don’t remember them, how can they be my friend??
