Women's feelings for Facebook friends

More than six out of ten women say that their Facebook friends complain all the time while 32 per cent are irritated by friends constantly boasting about their marvellous lives, a new survey has claimed.

And 42 per cent of women get really irritated by Facebook friends who post their political opinions on their walls while 65 per cent moan that they have friends who relentlessly update their pages with the minutiae of their lives. These are dubbed as 'documentarians' by the survey.

Online daily offers site Eversave surveyed 400 women in North America and found that one quarter are 'stalked' by a Facebook friend who follows them religiously, viewing every photograph and update that they post to their page.

Almost six in ten women (57 per cent) are bored rigid by 'proud mamas' who update their walls with their offspring's progress.

But these grumpy Facebook women may soon be irritated by the latest gadget to hit the social networking world. Cloud Girlfriend is about to be launched. This non-existent girlfriend can be added to their roster of Facebook friends to make them appear to have a love interest and become part of the 'in a relationship' group.
