    I am the same way with FB. I only have a few cousins & co-workers who always like my posts. And it's the same people all the time. I guess that's how you tell who your real friends are.Even certain people in my family don't even hit the like button. I have often thought that every time i post something & don't get likes from certain friends on FB, it just sets me up for disappointment. I have thought that maybe if i would not post much, it would be better. I try to remember one of my favorite life quotes "Don't expect anything from certain people and you won't be disappointed"

    No, I tell who my real friends are by who I spend time with away from the Internet. One of my best friends who I talk to for hours sometimes a day doesn’t even have Facebook. We also never text each other.

    I got rid of Facebook for most of 2017 but got it back recently because one of my women’s groups posts updates on our weekly meeting place and time on a facebook group, so it was convenient for me to get it back. I went through my friends list and curated it very specifically. I asked myself if I saw them at target, would I stop to have a conversation to catch up with them? If the answer was no, deleted they went.
