I'd had a Facebook account for a while before I began using it. When I did start using it I only used it to help keep in contact with my long distance girlfriend. I never accepted friend requests from anyone I worked with. Well, actually, anyone at all.
Then slowly I began understanding how important it is for me to live authentically without compartmentalizing different aspects of me. I don't talk about my sex life and I don't bitch about my work (beyond an occasional "man, what a day" comment now and again). Keeping in mind the basic tenets of what is appropriate for public consumption I'm able to navigate both my personal and professional lives. Granted, I don't friend professional contacts whom I've not met in person.
And.... when I really need to keep a comment from someone, or someones I simply filter it with the Facebook tools - for lists, etc.

I have one account that includes everyone. I sometimes wish I didn't. Yes, you can control lists and some things keeping them so other people can't see them but facebook (this may shock some of you regular users) doesn't always work right. I like to play games, specifically FV and MW. I like to play them often. There are alot of mystery eggs that go unposted because I don't want some people to see post after post of games - they may assume that I have some sort of a problem - which of course is untrue. I can stop playing them whenever I want *twitch*.
I understand people and their want for seperate pages. I would also like to friend my other self so I can get more gifts and help myself during boss fights. Oh, and unwither my crops and feed my chickens.
