"but now you just facebook friend them and take in the info dump" True, but does this guy I'm sending a friend request to actually want me to see his profile?

"but now you just facebook friend them and take in the info dump" True, but does this guy I'm sending a friend request to actually want me to see his profile? It seems that Facebook wants me to send him a friend request, and Facebook wants the guy to accept it, but the guy doesn't have much motivation to actually accept. Facebook's quest for openness is interesting and I think they can do quite a bit with it, but I also think it has left users with a desire for deeper social interaction. I can make my status "girls suck," but I'll never make it "my girlfriend cheated on me and wants me to take her back and I love her but I feel like it's going to be a slippery slope" I've always thought this is something Facebook would simply fix on their own. But now, as I consider the potential financial impact on the company, I think it might be worth contesting with a new product.
