Are people who keep adding and adding and adding and adding "friends" on Myspace truly happy?

Why would anyone want hundreds of friends! What about meeting people face to face in the real world instead of adding so-called digital friends via computer, announcing them like they do in elementary school. For the younger crowd that's fine but for the 30 and 40-something mature folks--eh, I'm not sure. Seems kind of silly.





In any case, the quality of the friendships is greater when the network is small. When you keep increasing it, the quality of the bonds weaken.





How can a person keep up with that many 24/7 or are they just pretending they're close to them all - reflecting a beefed up image to the site viewers?





I'm talking about older Myspace users in the 30 and 40 age range, not teens or those in their 20s.





As for me, I'd rather meet a person in front of my own nose because that way I know who I'm dealing with. The old-fashioned way of making friends in the real world sure beats online social connecting.
