I have friends who actually track down people who've defriended them and ask them why, and the thing is, I don't usually want to know that.
There are people I friend because I just like to read their public entries or look at their photos, and whether they friend me back is immaterial. However, most of my friends put me on their list before I put them on mine, and thus don't fall into that category. There is a minor relationship there, an affiliation at least, and it feels kind of pathetic to me to stay associated with someone who's indicated he or she doesn't want to be associated with me.
