How many FB friends do you have?

My personal total usually hovers around 100-110, plus another 20 or so "imaginary" friends from various boards I frequent.

Some of my teenaged cousins have over 600. I can't even imagine what a news feed looks like with that many people in it. Even some of my adult friends have over 300. Crazy.

    I have 302 and all of them are people I actually know, I lived in 3 different towns growing up, so some are friends from elementary/Jr High when I went to two really small schools (40ish kids per grade) and then High school friend, college friends, former co-workers, friends who I've met through other friends, etc.

    I currently have 535.

    ETA: With the exception of 2-3 people from here, I know all of them IRL.

    169.  Only people I know in real life, and consider a legitimate friend from some point in my life (if not now)

    160 and I know all but 1. I supposedly went to high school with this gal, but can't place her to save my life.

    If I ever get over 100, it'll be time to start de-friending people. No need to have that many people knowing what I'm up to, or seeing all my photos.

    I just cleaned out my friend list a month or two ago. I think I have around 100 now. Some I know on here and IRL, everyone else I know IRL.

    I have 222.  It's time to do some spring cleaning, I think.

    364.  10 are nesties and the rest I know in real life.  We're military so there's a steady stream of people coming and going and new friends.

    Pretty much all of them are friends/family. I think there are 5-6 that are Nesties that I have not met.

    Last time I checked, I think it was around 270. I know all of the people on there, save for a few internet friends and a distant cousin in Norway.

    299. They are childhood friend, college friends, co-workers (old/current), former teachers, nesties and a few friends I've made through other friends. I have friends that have even more than that but I don't add just anyone b/c we happened to know each other at one point. I feel I should pare the list but I can't decide who should go.

    I have 606.  The only ones I don't know IRL are a couple girls from this board, and then there are probably 40 girls from my local board (but I have met almost all of them in person at some point, and we email often).  Other than that, it's college/sorority, church, work, high school, tennis, etc.  There are definitely some people I could cut (like they just don't use FB much and we are friends from another time in our lives), I just worry about hurting feelings....pretty silly, I guess.  My news feed is pretty entertaining though, always something to see :)

    I have 333 right now.  I've cleaned off people a few times so I've deleted probably another 50-60 more.  I grew up in a small town, went to several colleges, have lived all over.  I could easily add another 500 people but I stopped adding friends when I had 100--now I only add if someone I know friends me.

    506, but I'd say a majority are from HS.  I am in charge of our HS reunions/alumni events and such, so I use it a lot for communicating with them.

    This. I think I'm around 60-80.  I have a lot of kids photos on there since probably 20 people are close relatives and that's the best way for them to see the kids.
