How old are you? I'm tempted to chalk this up to cointegration between you losing friends (like many others) while growing older and Facebook's popularity increasing.
Its harder to make friends as you grow older, and you grow apart from friends over the years, so your net # of friends declines with time. Meanwhile, we're growing up while Facebook becomes more popular. Thus, it's easy to blame FB for a traditional phenomenon related to the passage of time in one's life.
- jneal 15y agoYou may be right..although I do believe Facebook is partially to blame at least. I am 26...and I've got friends who have moved away, friends who have gotten married, etc...BTW I've been married myself, but I never allowed marriage to keep me from having friends
- petervandijck 15y agoIt's likely the age. At 26, friends start drifting away and it's hard to make new ones. People have less time and inclination to spend hours on the phone at this age.
