Breaking up with Facebook

Has anyone else done this recently? I did it back in January but thanks to family & friends hassling me I re-joined for a bit, however my feelings of discomfort about various things continued (security, Fear of missing out etc). So I'm quitting again & hopefully this time it'll be permanent.

Anyone else want to join in with quitting Facebook?

I think it's about four years since I quit it and I've never missed it, infact it feels liberating.

I have deactivated and feel much better. I was starting to get pissed of with my family telling me what I should and shouldn't put on and I thought you know what instead of deleting them I will delete myself ;-)

Quit in jan, don't miss it although sometimes I'll think of witty status updates relating to what I'm doing and then remember I can't post it Grin

I quit a few years ago. I first got Facebook when I lived abroad and I found it brill for sharing photos with my family however I got increasingly irritated by it so I quit. I don't miss it at all and manage to keep in touch with my friends by text or email.

There's a face book topic?!

I quit earlier this year. I had people then texting me to check if i was ok because apparently if you quit fb its means there is something wrong with you Hmm
My life feels less stressful without it.
