How Many Of YOUR Facebook Friends Could YOU Rely On? by Entertain9jar(f): 9:55pm On Jan 22, 2016
IF YOU think the number of friends you have on Facebook is an accurate representation of your real-life friendships – you are sorely mistaken, new research has revealed.

People with significantly more than 155 Facebook friends have a fewer dependable friends

Anthropologists from the University of Oxford have found that people only have the capacity to maintain friendships with around 150 people.
This figure was based on a study led evolutionary psychologist Professor Robin Dunbar which analysed the social relationships of more than 3,300 people.
Facebook users consider some 28 per cent of their online friends to be "true friends", the University of Oxford study found.
“This is because friendships ultimately require occasional face-to-face interaction if they are to be maintained over time,” the study argued.

And people would turn to only four per cent of their Facebook friends in the event of an emergency.
Test subjects with significantly more than 155 Facebook friends typically had a smaller circle of dependable friends.
These findings were published in the journal Royal Society Open Science.

I have 1,053 friends and i can rely on NONE... Not that i don't know them personally.. At least i know more than 80% of them. But in life, we humans tend to get tired of people especially those we only get to talk over the phone... Therefore, I don't have friends i can rely on... I'm a friends people can rely on
