How serious is being unfriended on Facebook to you? Apparently, it is a very serious matter to most people. According to Health Day News, "Many people say they would avoid real-life contact with someone who unfriended them on Facebook, a new study finds.

"People think social networks are just for fun, but ... what you do on those sites can have real-world consequences," study author Christopher Sibona said in a news release from the University of Colorado, Denver." MORE [2]

Have you ever been unfriended? How did you feel?
