Ditto to all the above; my friend here in Tn & my daughter want me to join, so far I just can't do it..lol....

Thats OK Alice, I only joined this past year and my son had to teach me everything about it

No prob., Alice...I sometimes regret joining facebook...There are so many requests for quizzes, 'join this group,' chain letters, I sometimes want to delete my account...lol...I currently have 300 unanswered requests...Does anyone else find these annoying other than me? lol...I'll sign onto Hotmail, and I'll have messages from Facebook, and it'll turn out to be something like, "Join craig's (fake name) quest for world domination with his use of skateboards" or something silly like that...Or, "take the which dress is most likely to stun him" test...I'm like, "Please Lord, make it stop- Please!" lol

I joined facebook last year and I have mixed feelings about it. I finally got tired of all the game requests and set up my facebook account so I wouldn't receive emails from facebook. I like games occasionally, but I surely do not want to know when everyone plays a game on facebook.

I do have positive things to say about facebook. It is fun to share common interests with people on facebook.

Admittedly, there are probably better internet sites to talk to people with common interests. I am new with spending so much time on my computer (due to MG taking away my ability to be as active as I want to be) and I am trying to find inspiring places on the internet...any ideas of more interesting internet sites?

I certainly do not have hurt feelings if someone is not my facebook friend. It doesn't really matter one way or the other. Of course, if you want to be my facebook friend, go ahead, just PM me for my facebook name.

I have a preference for face to face interactions with people (which is lacking greatly from my life other than my close family)

Nicky, I don't answer any quizzes, play any games, join groups, or use many apps, so I don't get those in my email. I do get them when someone replies to something I wrote or new friend requests. I didn't want to join at first, but my cousin talked me into it. It's nice to be able to connect with some old friends from my past and make new friends too!

Susan, I sent you a friend request, but didn't get a response. Maybe you didn't see, so I'll sent you another one. I got your name from one of the other forum members site.

Hugs to you both,
Pat
