but you underscore my point about the importance of fb friendship. This is YOUR value and expectation, but not necessarily his. Also the obligatory stuff because you're family? Shoot I don't even have fb friendships with my family because you know what? (well when I had fb active) most of my personal **** is none of their business since our values differ and our lifestyles. Thing is, just because I was born to the same parents does not make us compatible people or automatic fb friends for that matter.

If you loosen your rules about this facebook friendship stuff you'll have quite a lot of stress removed from yourlife.
