Why do people get annoyed at relatives adding them? not even the old ones..but those who are your age or a little younger? I dont find it a big deal to add family members...teh way i see it i have nothing to hide or nothing to be ashamed of...majortiy of my contact is via emails/Pms any way.
i would be annoyed if anyone who is not close to me add me on facebook. it doesn't matter if they are relative or work friend, or college friend.
i have a friend who went to pakistan this summer and got married to her cousin. they are from a city in pakistan which isn't like karachi or lahore. means you can't hang out with girls as freely. so her husband's brothers, and male cousins got really excited to have a bhabhi from "amreeka" who have "amreekan" friends so they started adding every single girl from her friends list, and started sending those crappy, flity fwd sms/text jokes or love quots. i never added any of them but they kept sending me those gross stuff, one day i got so sick of it that i threatened them that if they don't stop i will get their parents phone number from my friend and call their parents. thanks god it stopped them.
