Does it bother you when someone deletes you from Social media?

Chatting with a friend today and we somehow discovered that a mutual contact has deleted DFriend from FB.

DF had no idea that this person had deleted them, or when or why they would have done it. I suggested DF asks the person why they deleted her. DF said she wouldn't give it a second thought as she also deletes people if she feels like it.

I on the other hand would be really bothered by someone randomly deleting me for no apparent reason. Especially since we see this mutual contact on a very regular basis. I doubt I'd be able to feel comfortable in their company again.

Would this bother you? I feel I would want to ask them why they suddenly felt the need to remove me as a 'friend' without any obvious reasoning. DF says I'm over thinking the whole situation.

It would definitely bother me if I was deleted by someone I need to see on a regular basis. Especially if there was no obvious reason for it

Bit radical, but could you not...um...ask them then?

Ask them what? Try reading before being so confidently rude.

I do notice my friends count go down sometimes and I think to myself, I wonder who it was. But then I never seem to figure it out so it couldn't be someone I care about!
