How bad would it be to unfriend your aunt?

Depends. Do you think she's computer savvy enough to notice?
ETA: Alternatively, you could do what I've done with some family members. I just hide their status updates. That way we're still technically friends, but I don't have to see what's going on in their lives.

If you don't what her to know what is going on in your life, unfriend her, she won't get a notice you did it. If she noticed it and says something you can always say I must have done it by mistake when I as putting people in groups or say oh I did?.
Good luck with that.

I hid all those [*d`oh!*] farmville (insert annoyingly-stupid facebook game updates here) updates. Made facebook so much more tolerable.

I started reading this thread, and the first thing I thought was how do I get rid of the d*&m Farmville updates!! I will have to check into selectively choosing not to get updates from 3 people.
I was unfriended once, I suppose because I ignored the incessant flowers and crystals I was receiving. I didn't find out until I had an event, and went to invite her and noticed her name was no longer on my list.. Oh well, it stopped the flowers and crystals...

It is much better isn't it. I do check to see what photos or videos people have added every few days.

The next time you see a Farmville, or Yoville or Mafia Wars update, just roll the cursor over it and "hide" will pop up. Click on it, click hide app, and you'll never see it again!

It's a form of social site, but how many times have you seen me post personal stuff. Not too much. Anything I say to you or anyone else is thru PMs, correct?
