People in your situation before Facebook probably:
1) Socialised with local friends
2) Interacted with remote friends via the telephone
People in your situation before phones probably:
1) Socialised with local friends
2) Interacted with remote friends via the mail/telegram
3) Didn't have that many remote friends due living in an era that provided less opportunities for long-distance travel
People in your situation before telegrams/mail:
1) Socialised with local friends
2) Didn't usually have any remote friends due living in an era that provided less opportunities for long-distance travel and/or communications
I think if you will do some reading you'll discover that life proceeded quite handily prior to the availability of long distance communications and/or travel to the general populace.
