Yes, I've tried. Social anxiety makes it especially hard. I was always an outcast in school and it seems like that 'outcast' label had followed me into RL. I don't know if it's because I'm overweight or what, but people just aren't interested in connecting with me or being my friend. Plus I live in a small town where there's really no designated place to go and meet people. I have about 60 friends on FB. The number of people I truly know is small and I make it a point not to add complete strangers.

I also realize this. Believe me, I don't expect to suddenly get popular.
But I have been on Facebook for over 4 years now, if that means anything.
