How many friends?

I'm just wondering 'how many friends do you have in your profile and how many of them are you really in contact with?

 

I have 24 but I really talk with 3.

 

Just a reflection… why do you have all those friends if you only add them but you never talk to them?

Hi Osa! I also ask same question to my self. I have 58 friends, but i just talk to several of them. And it’s based on frequenty, like this: Always 2 friends, Often 2, Sometimes 3, and the others is Never keep in touch! What for having lots of friends? First, ‘coz they asked me to add, and second, I ask ‘coz I’m interested to their comments in one forum!

I have quite a few, 90 plus, I think but I don't think I have refused any requests. I speak regularly or semi-regularly with a half dozen. 

I had one more but I was removed because of some cartoons.

osatoga,you really ask a good question.I think it is a question about my soul.we would be very proud if we have many friends in our profile but in fact we just keep in touch with several among them.it is of course something about our self pride because we may think that we are popular because of the huge amount of friends.But we often ingnore that only our ture friend can help us to face every difficulty.
