10 Types of Facebook friends

 

  

Virtually all of us(teenagers) have Facebook accounts, even though IG and snapchat are slowly taking over I’m sure we still have memories about the times we used Facebook (if you no longer use it). One memory that might be hard to forget are the kind of friends on your friends’ list either then or now. I have taken the effort to remind you and open the eyes of those still using FB to the kind of FB friends one could possibly have. Enjoy reading and please be kind enough to remind me of the category I possibly forgot.

• The passive: they never like or comment on your post and that gets me wondering how they got to the friends list (even though I am really guilty of that).
   
• The gamer: this group of friends can send game invites for Africa.
   
• The event followers: from awards to concerts and even not so publicized shows, how do they manage to know all these?
   
• The once-in-a-while status update guy/girl: they only post during festivities and other circumstances- pretty sure their updates barely reach 10 per year- and then profile picture update is once in a "thousand years".
• The picture friend: with this set of friends, a day of 24 hours turns to a day of over 24 pictures [pardon my exaggeration ;-)]. Looking for a forgotten post on such a timeline is just stressful cos you have to pass through lots and lots of pictures.
   
• The link friend: most of the updates of this set of people are from sites that have their permission to post on their FB page.
   
• The hourly update friend: you can literally track such people’s schedules- if the locations are true.
  
• The inspirational friend: each post they make inspires you in a way and some wish they could take it down a bit.
   
• The whiners: they use every opportunity they get to just get at you and this can be really annoying.(You are literally like this).
  
  
• The Facebook unfriendly friends: this could be those that come on another person's wall/thread and pick up a fight (real or fake it’s so not cool) or those that think writing on a wall is similar to a personal message-smh.
