My Facebook friends are my real friends from real life. I feel like a tool posting things with affiliate links trying to make money off of them. Does anyone do this and what are your thoughts on it?

Use a redirect so they can't see that you're posting an affiliate link. Some people won't like clicking on a link that makes you money as they feel they are being used.

I have some friends who post affiliate links about products, if that’s what you mean. I don’t mind that because I only click on the link when I am interested with the product of service that they are promoting. And since they are my real friends, I don’t mind at all their posts about affiliate links. However, if they become abusive like posting links every day, I would unfollow them so I wouldn’t see their posts anymore. In fairness to me, I always give them a warning before I unfollow a friend.
