Unfollowing someone on Twitter is the most underhanded, cowardly way of signaling the end of a friendship. That's what email's for.

Some times I unfollow because I'm following them elsewhere already. Also, accidents happen occasionally - my service offers auto-unfollow based on certain keywords in DMs that individuals set on their own. Hopefully you're whitelisted by that individual, but occasionally accidents do happen. :-) If they're a friend, might be worth approaching them to find out why they unfollowed?

Unfollowing == ending a friendship? Must be a new age definition of friendship I guess.

There needs to be a way to allow certain people to DM you without following them. I'd like to put all my friends into lists, for example, and read them that way instead of having them in my main Twitter feed (aka followed).

Otto, it's called e-mail :-)

What about changing facebook friendship status??

My teenage daughter disagrees--she says the worst is to be removed as "Besty" from her Top 8...I guess it's kinda the same...

Maybe we make too many decisions on what is convenient for us without thinking about the effect it will have on others.
