Is there someone on your friends list who just doesn't bother anymore, you message them and they don't reply even though you seen they have been online numerous times. Should you remove them or just leave them there? X

Remove them, they will probably see that you are no longer on their friends list and either, be bothered by it and so contact you, or not be bothered by it and not contact you. I’ve done that recently, we are now friends again

Literally just had this conversation about half an hour ago. On another note what if you added them as a friend but after a social didn't proceed because you weren't into them .... Is it bad etiquette to remove them from your friends list?

I recently did this with someone who originally sent me a Friends invite shortly after we moved here over four years ago...

....apart from a couple of messages exchanged at the time, I've not had any contact with them since - I messaged them a few times when they were logged in at the same time as me, but they never replied...

....after yet another such message went unread and unanswered a few weeks ago, decided it was time to press 'delete'...

Just did this with same results, apart from the we’re friends again bit lol. We met up a few days ago (2nd meet though 1st and 2nd meet were 2 years apart). I was completely ghosted after the meet, I pull them out of my friends list, hey presto I get a “Happy New Year” message.

As all my friends are invariably people who I've met or at some time formed a strong connection with, I never delete any because, I do realise that people have a life outside of fab, and very often we just pick up where we left off.

It's probably a good idea to prune a bit now and again, if there's no contact. I do see quite a few people who put this on their status update, I wonder if this is a plea to be contacted or a 'look at me' type post.

I sense. At that moment in time people feel that vibe with you. Then they add as a friend. And feel they have conquered you!

Then turn the corner. And onotjer shiny toy comes along they think will give them more than you. They then vampire n teeth into them. And it continues. It's all fictional friends.

How many exchange numbers?? Really chat and meet?

Most it's all a head fuck and game on the Internet.

All my meets n links have been before joining fab back in April 2021.

That's exactly how I view friendship too which is why I don't have any old school or childhood friends.

It works both ways and when you spend years visiting, helping, funding and supporting and you suddenly realise they have never reciprocated it's not really friendship.

The same is true on here. If I'm the one initiating every conversation and the only time I ever hear from them is when they need backup in their latest drama it's easier just to move on and forget about them.

"I'm better on a block list "

The block list thread was a step to far

Those offenders who received a lifetime bar

But the shunning of friends is surely a crime

An action of regret over a period of time

So before that delete button is depressed

The friendship situation should be throughly assessed

Friends surely one cannot have sufficient

As without them life would be deficient

So refrain from pruning the list of mates

Instead focus on their positive traits

And remember Fab friends are for life not the Yuletide

As one day they maybe naked by your side

"So many saying that they haven't spoken to in a while, well that cuts two ways....

Just saying like.

When did you drop in a little did to that got you talking to begin with. Doesn't take much to say good to see your both active.

What got this thread going for me was that there are 8 people on my friends list and I messaged them all individually wishing them all a happy xmas, they all got back apart from 1 who was online regularly over the period, they never opened the message we sent although they wouldn't have done this before, it was always the same day at least they would reply. Its as if we made the effort and they couldn't be bothered. X

Hooray, well done you. Genuinely.

So many moaning but can't be arsed to make that move themselves, we accept friendship here on the same basis as we do in real life. We see old friends that welcome us 20 odd years after we last spoke.

A friend is for life not just Christmas.

That's exactly how I view friendship too which is why I don't have any old school or childhood friends.

It works both ways and when you spend years visiting, helping, funding and supporting and you suddenly realise they have never reciprocated it's not really friendship.

The same is true on here. If I'm the one initiating every conversation and the only time I ever hear from them is when they need backup in their latest drama it's easier just to move on and forget about them.

Fab friendships have to be mutual and not one way streets.

Fab is not real. It’s transient it’s a recreational sex site it’s not a for life association it’s taken far too seriously it’s about being flexible it’s just a bit of fun!"
that's fine in your world, or anybody else's, in ours we give meaning to those in our friends list. Meeting them for pants on fun is as good as the pants off stuff too. True we met them here, but they'll be in our phones contact list long after we aren't here.

We're realistic about what fab means to different people and find compared to our own MO that its sad that friendships, both here and life generally have become so disposable.

Throw away society indeed, within an environment of fly tipped, using along with the fuck and go-ness.

"I've considered this so as not to be tormented by their wazo pair of jugs

I couldn't do it though "

Same , I don’t tend to add many, they are either great memories or hopeful / work in progress

I don't have any. The only requests I get are clearly for the sole purpose of getting a look at my Friends Only pics.
