I have reconnected with a few people from my past via the internet. None of those relationships have been very meaningful. I hate, hate, hate uperficial "acquaintances", I just think it is a waste of everyone's time. However, I have realized that I need to be more inclusive and let more people in. So, I have friends on FB that I haven't seen or talked to in 20 years or more. I think that the internet can be a good and bad thing where that is concerned. It is easy to reconnect with people but still keep things very caual. But I am also hard core too because I am not afraid to ignore a friend requet on FB. My friend Shelley says the reason she doesn't do FB is becuase she would feel like she has to add everyone who adds her first, but I disagree. I don't think you have to add anyone you don't want to, that people shouldn't be hurt by that.
