Cutting Back On My Friends List

I need to trim My Friends list down.   There are more people on My Friends list than I can keep up with -- and some I haven't heard from in a LONG TIME.   I have started trimming it down by removing some friends that haven't been active on DS for a long time. This needs to be done in order for me to keep in closer touch with some DS friends who are in need of support, encouragement, and help.   If you do not want to be removed, please reply here.   *All new friend requests will be reviewed on a one to one basis. In the future, I would like those asking to be added to My Friends list to be active on DS, and have similar issues.   Thanks for your understanding!
