Origin Friends Not In Game?

I have no Facebook friends in the game.

The exact wording is: Origin Friends not in game

It's a list at the bottom of the column when you tap the handshake button. There's:

Friend Requests Received
Friend Requests Sent
Neighbors (with list on neighbors)
Facebook Friends not in game
Origin Friends not in game

My research indicates that the Origin Friends not in Game are people you're friends with through the Origin Application (available for PC and Mac) that aren't playing Tapped Out. I checked the Origin App - it shows that she (I'm assuming from the name) is one of my friends, but since Tapped Out isn't one of the games you can play inside the Origin App it doesn't list Tapped Out as one of the games she has.

For those who are not familiar with the Origin App for PC and Mac:

Origin is like a tablet emulator. You can download and play games inside it. It also allows you to access your friend list and profile.

Whoa. Are you saying that as long as I go through the Origin website, there's a legit way to access and play my Tapped Out town on my PC?

I have the origin app on my pc. I've never seen a way to play my game there. Going to look again.

But only if they have the Origin app on their computer and use it.

I have it, but have rarely used it. I've tried sending messages through it, but no responses so far.

Tapped Our seriously needs an in-game message system. But from what I hear that's a common complaint.

As I stated above: Tapped Out is NOT available through the Origin App.

no im saying you can just message them

yeah its the Origin list counting. so if your friend is on origin but dont have tsto it's 1 less friend in the game.

I've this happen to several friends, I generally leave them for a week in case they come back, then delete them if they don't. Though to be honest, I'm not sure if any have ever came back.
