Thanks for the tips, Celeste! From what I understand, you can be selective about who you "friend". Is this correct? But, OMG! What if I hurt someone's feelings by not "friending" them? :?

The best part is when you know somebody un-friended you because your total of number of friends goes down, but Facebook won't tell you who un-friended you, so you have to look at your list and see if you can figure out who you ticked off, through process of elimination.
Yes Karyn not only can you be selective about who you "friend", you can also tweak your privacy settings to make your presence on facebook entirely invisible to stalker-types who you want to avoid (it's called "blocking" them)...so that's how you avoid hurting the feelings of people you want to keep out of your personal business. If you are not avoiding somebody but just forget to "friend" them, they won't get hurt feelings (unless they are kind of off-balance already), they will just friend-request you, instead of the other way around.

Hurt feelings will happen on Facebook and sometimes it'll be your own. But it's super cool to find friends from your old neighborhood, etc. Like HM said, you can set your privacy controls so you're not easy to find, and you can pre-emptively block the names of people you don't want seeing your Facebook activity (such as comments on a common friend's page). I don't care for any of the Facebook games (Farmville, Scrabble, etc.) but some live for it. Mostly I like to see peoples pictures and links, and see what's on peoples minds.
