I recently deactivated my account (after removing all my notes, photos and comments). I have not decided if I am going to make it permanent or not.

I actually have a love/hate relationship with Facebook. At times, I just want to delete my account and never venture there again. Other aspects I find useful. As a sailor in the Navy, I move around a lot and FB is a good way for old friends to keep in touch. I also, surprisingly, use it for work. People check their FB more than their email and nobody checks their work email on weekends. When I'm at sea and need something from a co-worker back on the beach, the quickest way to get a response is to send them a FB message.

What I really need to do is nuke my friends list down to only true friends and family members and certain co-workers. This would make FB a lot more tolerable.

I found some people will write things on Facebook that they would never say face to face.

I had been slowly defriending “friends” when they decided to use their Facebook account to share their political views.

Which I would have ignored but those on the left that preach tolerant are very intolerant of those that do not agree with them.

It finally got easier to just take my ball and go home.
