Is Facebook taking over your life?

I first joined facebook in 2007! At first yes, I used to spend many hours there, for commenting on and watching photos,joining groups and writing on walls! Also at first I used to add all those applications and quizzes and could get addicted to many of them!:p But at first, I had my very own circle of friends in facebook! I didn't like adding people that I didn't know as I didn't like people who don't know me to have access to my photos and everything...Ok, this is my personal point of view, I know that many people enjoy meeting other people on facebook..But, a little after that facebook in my network became so overcrowded and I had friend requests from people that I did know but our relations were not that close, but also I couldn't ignore the request! So I added everyone of them...and after that I lost my interest on facebook! And so did my friends! SO know, I still have it but I log in only if I see a request or a comment sent in my email...I cannot say that I am glad for not using facebook that much anymore, as I lost contacts with some people I used to talk more often, but I really don't feel like using facebook more than I already do anymore

I personally hate Facebook, It's a terrible waste of time. I do have account, and it's great for checking out pictures and what not, but other then that it's SOOOOO BORRINNGGG. I refuse to let it take over my life, but you make a good point. A lot of people are addicted to it, and some go on it JUST for the applications. I go on it because it is a great way to keep up with friends and family, but that's about it.

a new medical condition has even been made FAD ( Facebook addiction disorder) ROFLMFAO there is NO such medical condition! I have a Facebook account and love it...I ahve gotten in touch with dozens of friends from my long ago past that I would have otherwise not been able to find (or them me)...does it rule my life though? No not even close..

Sometimes I feel like that. Most of my friends on facebook live far away and there is no way I would know what they're doing unless I wanted to e-mail them every day which I can't because they and I all have lives. Facebook eliminates that issue because I can just check their status update. Since I joined a few months ago, I think the longest I ever haven't checked facebook is 3 days, but it's usually every day. Then again that's not so a-typical. There are lots of sites I visit every day, like here.

I do get on Facebook a lot, but mainly to keep in contact with friends and coworkers. I have a couple of applications that need me to check up on them every day, but I can change the level to easy and get away with not checking them for days. I say I am addicted, but I could live without it if I had to. Its just something I do for fun and to see whats going on with my friends when we don't have time to fill each other in on all of the details of our lives.

hi, recently i found myself enjoying in facebook because many of my friends are there already and we can chat over..though im enjoying being there but definitely its not taking over my life :)
