I pretty much have to use Facebook if I want to keep in touch with my friends back home. My options are use Facebook and get invites to parties and events...

I hear this a lot from other people. ^
When I stopped using FB, what I did was I PM'd every "friend" I had listed and asked them to write me at my email, to use my email as a way to keep in touch because i was no longer going to use FB.
Out of 40-50 people I had listed on FB, 3-4 actually did that and still do to this day.
I do not miss social interactions IRL because I do not use FB, I only miss out on social interactions if I choose to not keep in touch using the phone, emails, written mail, etc.
There are alternative ways to stay in touch with others other than using FB.
I honestly think either people are addicted to FB and use this as an excuse, or they really believe they simply have to have it because everybody else has it.
