I'm 24, so I'm still young enough for Facebook to be an issue, but it's not. I only go on it to post my photography whenever I shoot pictures, or just have a rant I really need to get out. So sometimes it's two weeks, or even a month between Facebook checks. I don't have the app on my devices, and for that matter, I DON'T have ANY social networks on my Android phone or iPad.

I ignore 100% of friend requests from relatives, teachers, and people I haven't seen in the last 5 years. I sat by myself at parties, at school, and at home. If you didn't bother to approach me then, then there's no point in doing so now. I had text messages enabled for YEARS, and not a single text or call from ANYONE. People never even bothered asking me for my number.

I don't care what they think of me for it. If they're so sore from not being in my "circle", then they obviously need something better to be doing. I'm not their "entertainment", nor do I have any care in the world for someone I haven't seen in 10 years.
