Deleting People on FB

The idea of deleting people on facebook once you are not friends in real life anymore seems a bit ridiculous to me seeing as the majority of the people you are friends with on facebook probably aren't your friends in real life anyways. Although, I see how being deleted as a friend on facebook, or deleting a friend on facebook (in a spiral of anger) might be temporarily satisfying, I think that it brings two problems to the table. One, if  you become friends again in a month you have to make the real awkward move of re-requesting them as a friend. Two, if you don't become friends again in a month and you become curious as to what is happening in their life (and don't say you wont be because clearly if it was so heartbreaking you had to delete them as a facebook friend then you clearly care) you can't "creep" on them. Therefore, I think the idea of deleting people on facebook once you have already committed to a facebook relationship is a poor decision! But do what you will people its a free country for a reason!
