What A Day: A Little Disgusted

A Little Disgusted

I have to admit, I am a little disgusted and disappointed with all my "friends" on Facebook who couldn't take a minute to comment on my son's stint in the PICU/hospital. There were a few friends and family members who were kind enough to acknowledge our heartbreaking challenge, and I greatly appreciate them. However, I have 67 "friends". Where were they all? I got a much bigger response from my Baptist Moms group. Do I say something?

I figured the so called "friends" just wanted to keep up with me out of curiosity and nothing more so I went through and deleted them.; February 21, 2009 at 6:52 PM

I'm sorry you've felt hurt by the lack of response. Is it possible that part of the problem is that your FB friends have enough other friends that it makes it hard to keep up with all of them? I only have 40-some, and I still sometimes miss when someone posts new pictures or has an interesting status update. I can't imagine if I had hundreds, the way some people do. In some ways, a forum like the Baptist Moms site is easier to keep up with what others are going through.

I know that probably doesn't make it hurt any less. But hey, *we* love you! :); February 22, 2009 at 2:11 PM

I guess I am irritated at the ones who spend enough time on FB to do multiple lists, but haven't said anything about Joel. It just irks me.; February 22, 2009 at 3:16 PM
