WHY did I get on Facebook?

I made a huge mistake and set up a Faceb

I've been sober of Facebook for almost a year now

Well, I went on Facebook about 5 years ago, because of work. My boss told me to make an app interact with FB. I didn't tell anyone about it, yet some friends found me there. Since then, I've added some friends, removed some friends, tried to keep the friends list small. It's now at about 40 people.

I think it's ok. We have there a group for our weekly video evening, where people comment the last films we watched, ask whether it takes place next week or not, say what movies they like or not and so on. And else... I Have maybe 20 new posts per day of my friends, which are about all kinds of stuff about their life, which I can ignore or not. So I don't care.

I don't need it, but I don't mind using it.

Why not just deactivate your account then?

I recently disabled my facebook. I've had it since 2009, but it was getting grating and annoying and making me more depressed.

so I disabled it. Now, it's just the silence of people I don't know not giving a crap unless it's on facebook. lol

I've got a facebook account, and I like it. I've got 35 friends, and some of them are blocked so that I cannot see their posts, the others don't post much. Then I've got a few pages I like with funny pictures and interesting stories as well as a unit page from my military service.

Facebook is a big place, you shouldn't stay with the people you don't like, you can move out and look for others.

I keep Facebook so I can see my old friends from high school fail at life, and to rub in that I'm travelling the world, not pregnant with my 3rd kid at 25. Keeps me motivated. Oh and my mum likes to see what I'm up to hahah.

There are many reasons.

Soon as i deactivated my fb i had a huge weight lift off of shoulders i have a fake account for the pages i like on there but i now have no pressure or paranoia of what i should or shouldn't be doing on that stupid site

Facebook has its positives for me.

I keep in contact with family and some of the clubs\organisation I'm involved with. It is a good way to find out information. I set my facebook photography page.
