My friends list is filled up with multiple accounts of the same person, and people who don't want to see anything I post. I know that that's what I said I wanted since my deconversion to atheism, but that was before I realized that all my activist stuff would not have activity on it. (pun intended) I am going to start clearing my friends list. If you care about staying on my friends list, follow these directions:
1) Let me know
2) If you have multiple accounts, pick ONE account you want to stay friends with me with and tell me what it is.
Not a single person responded. Not even my mother, not my sister, not my two relatives who are atheist themselves. The only places I get support are from strangers I don't know, and I have to be in a FB group in order to get that support. Is this normal for someone who is an atheist to barely, if at all, get any support from family/friends? What can I do? Thanks.
Get better friends!
