Someone you are friends with on FaceBook, only on FaceBook, have never personally met, exchanged messages with, heard second-hand references to, or maybe not even seen more than a name and avatar of. Merely calling them "friend" almost insults the meaning of friendship, especially compared to your real friends or even passing aquaintances. In fact people call them "FaceBook Friend" or "Friend-on-FaceBook" knowing that God will punish them for using the word "friend" so cavalierly.
He's just a FBriend, I vaguely remember FBriending him when I was drunk and saw he had 56 FBriends in common with my best friend.

The people who are friends with you on Facebook because you went to the same school, or because there is this one mutual friend among you. You wouldn't usually talk to them much because there aren't many things you have in common with them that you know of.

In spite of not knowing them very well, they do read your status updates and like things you post, and vice versa.

Note: The 'f' in the word is silent, and is pronounced as 'briend'.
Person 1: "Are you invited to the party Nathan is throwing? I hear there's gonna be a lot of people there."
Person 2: "Nah man. Nathan is just a fbriend, and basically invited me because he invited everyone on his fbriends' list..."

Floater Friend 

A floater friend is someone who knows a lot of people but isn't really close with any of them. A lot of the time floater friends feel left out as all their friends prefer someone over them. They tend to 'float' around different friend groups
Marnie: I hate being a floater friend. I feel so left out, you know?
Jack: "Huh? Oh sorry I was talking to Andrew"
Marnie: :(

Fake Friend

Someone who ignores you when they're around more 'popular' people.
Someone who only talks to you when they need something.
Someone who ignores you when they're in a group of people.
Someone who tells you they can't hangout, but they hangout with someone else instead.
Someone who never invites you to anything, unless they can't find anyone else to go.
Someone who, without a reason, gossip about you and make fun of you, but say that it was just a joke.
Someone who doesn't answer your texts when you ask them important questions.
Someone who fake laughs when they talk to you.
Someone who tells secrets to another friend, but doesn't tell them to you.

Most of all, someone who does these things, but then when it's just you two, they pretend like nothing's changed. Then they want you to act the same around them, and whether they realize what they do or not, they won't apologize.

If 4 or more of these things apply to one of your 'friends' then they are a fake friend
Real friend: hey you seem down lately, what's up?
You: nothing, just that she always ignores me around other people.
Real friend: What a bitch...don't worry about it. She's a fake friend.
You: You think?
Real friend: for sure. Look it up on urban dictionary if you don't believe me.
