I "de facebooked: about 6 years ago. For me it wasn't a problem.
I just  deleted my account. Tired of people I never knew from HS
trying to 'connect'. Or chatting with me in the middle of doing
something and then not responding when I replied. And the endless
stupid games that try to 'hook' you to play every waking hour.
Just told my family I was done with it, they'd have to contact me
a different way.

Just my opinion of FB though. You're mileage may vary.
