Does it really matter how many friends I have on Facebook? I realised something was not quite right when I got to the big 100. I felt relaxed now that I had a respectable amount of friends. Then I felt stupid for thinking like that. I also noticed that some people wanted to be my friends, but they didn't really. Could it be that people were using me to get their numbers up? How many is acceptable? 20, 30, 50, 100, 500? Why does it matter? Do we need to be popular? One thing we do is comparison. We pick that person who is quite like us to see how many friends they have or someone we aspire to be like. But what if they have more friends than us?
Maybe one of the problems with Facebook is the use of the word friend. It is being diluted.
