I only got 3 friends on facebook, as I registered it only a month. And I did not log in regular. All of them are known via the internet.

Hi there! I have more than 400 friends already since I joined facebook more than a year ago. I know like more than seventy five percent of them while the rest just added me and I just accepted their friend requests.

Facebook friends. Hmmm, I was planning to have one. But the problem is that I already joined a lot of sites like that and i wonder if I will still be able to be active in all those if i add another one. I'm still thinking about it.

Hi angelamp. I have close to 200 friends. I know about half of them in person. Maybe a little more. The reason being that I joined the app called world friends. Many people I think join it just to see how many people they can add. Really senseless. I joined it because I genuinely wanted to meet people from other countries and learn about their cultures and everyday life. I have learned so much and gained some very good friends. I live in Canada, and now have friends all over the world. Some I even talk to on the phone with, share everyday life with via messages, and exchange gifts at christmas..I also started a christmas card group with approx 75 members. It is a bit costly yes but we all send cards to one another at christmas. It really is exciting to eagerly check the mail every day around christmas and receive cards worldwide. In some countries, even the cards are different. I have also had many invitations to stay at friends houses around the world. It would save a bundle while travelling which I love to do and I would even have a tour guide!!

I have about 150 friends. I don't add everybody, only the ones I actually know and friends with. :)

I've got 50 friends only.. because most of my friends are using friendster instead of facebook.. i seldom visit facebook because my internet connection is quite frustrating and it takes minutes before facebook page loads fully..

I only add people that are fairly close to me, not if I only see them around once or twice a month with just a "hello." The people I am friends with I value, and they are special to me. I currently have 60 facebook friends.

I have just about 200 friends. I try to only add people that I know well / have met multiple times.
