Well, don't. It's completely okay to do so.
I'm not an expert, nor did I do any research on this, but whatever that you're about to read comes from complete logic and common sense.

Even during the time when email came around, people sometimes just don't reply to your email conversations after a while, perhaps they found something better to do, or you just got boring.
Anyway, the point is, humans weren't made for permanent friendships or connections.
When Facebook and Twitter or even Friendster came along, you are in touch with everyone you are "friends" with all of the time. You are updated on what they're doing, what they're eating and so on on a regular basis, and it gets repetitive.
The online communication world is far different from the real world. There is a larger chance of misinterpretation and miscommunication waiting to happen.
On these social networking sites, you will (and you probably have) created your own image of the people that you follow or are friends with and this interferes with the real image of that person.
So, you will either be very into that person (example being your favourite k-pop star or Justin Bieber) or annoyed as fuck by them (example being Justin Bieber).
Hence, your image created of that person will make you more likely to be tolerant or intolerant towards a person, and when you are intolerant of them, just like in real life, you will stop wanting to be their friend.
If you were to argue which networking site creates better bonds, I'd say neither. Unless it's a face-to-face communication process, then it doesn't really create strong permanent bonds. Constant one-sided communication can be tiring and annoying. Imagine your friend coming to your house every single day telling you the latest gossip and what they're currently doing in their lives.
So yes, let's just end here.
