Friends Filters Question

So, I created some filters since I belong to a bunch of communities that I don't always want to see right away. I created one that has all my regular friends and a couple communities and I checked the box next to it for wanting that to be what I view on my friends page. But, when I go to my friends page, it's just everyone. Do I have to go into the filter thing and click on that every time I just want to see my "favorite" friends? Is there anyway to keep that set? Or is that wishful thinking?
