A college graduate in Hangzhou unfriending 90 percent of her classmates
and teachers on WeChat upon graduation spurred harsh replies from those who
were unfriended.Beforehand, she sent a message saying “We’ll never meet again, so out
of courtesy, we should unfriend each other. Best wishes to you.” To notify her
classmates and teachers.However, according to Liaoshen Evening News, a news outlet based in
Shenyang, Liaoning province, the graduate later discovered that many people
were annoyed by her actions. Some even responded by sending friend requests
containing curse words.During an interview, the graduate explained that she had minimal
familiarity with the individuals in question, and it was highly unlikely that
there would be any contact or communication after graduation. In an effort to
avoid unnecessary social obligations, she made the decision to remove them from
her contacts. Only two close acquaintances were spared.Her actions quickly gained attention on Weibo, a Twitter-like platform
in China. One Weibo user named Man Tian Dou Shi Da Xing Xing commented, “There
was nothing wrong with what this girl did. It’s perfectly fine to cut loose
from classmates she didn’t like. I support her decision to avoid meaningless
social interactions and to do what she wants.” Another netizen named Lan Mei
Mei expressed a differing view, stating, “That was a hasty move. You should
have waited until after the graduation photo.”But not everyone supported the graduate’s behaviour. Weibo user Xiao
Cao Mei simply stated, “There’s nothing to be proud of, and this behaviour only
demonstrates low emotional intelligence (EQ).” Tian Ju Zi, a different user,
commented, “It’s clear you’re not good at managing relationships. Particularly
deleting your teachers demonstrates immaturity and a lack of manners.
