Facebook dilemma

Ok, so over my time using FB, I have made some bad friending decisions, many of them initiated by me. You know, you see someone you used to know, think, gee it would be fun to see what they are up to, exchange a few wall posts, etc. But then, you become friended and realize that they have no desire to catch up at all. The only reason they accept the friend request is so that they aren't considered rude. So, now you are "friends" with someone that you no longer want to be friends with. But wouldn't it be the height of rudeness to de-friend someone who you requested friendship from? They need another category. Something like "Slightly Friendly" "Just Curious" "Ok, but I don't really like you". You can see their profile for one week to satisfy your curiosity and then they go back to no mans land. Facebook sucks, it has created all sorts of issues that I never had before. If only I weren't addicted to it.
