If you send a friend request and then cancel it, is the person aware?

[TheOriginalFAB]

At the moment they haven't pressed accept or ignore.

Yes an email goes out immediately.

What does it say?

It would say "TheOriginalFab wants to be friends on Facebook." and options to confirm or ignore.

Sorry, I meant the one about cancelling the request.

Oh,I don't know then, sorry.

How do you cancel a friend request

Thanks anyway.

And here's my missing question mark... .

here then ?

On the left, scroll down and there is a clickable link to cancelrequest/block person.

I had a friend request from someone I knwo slightly and who definitely wouldn't want to be friends on FB with me. I got an email but when I went into FB to have a look there was no request there.

He had obviously realised he's done it by mistake and cancelled the request in the meantime - I didn't get any notification of the cancellation.

Okay, thanks.

yes, I saw a requst, did nothing as I was on my phone, and when I checked on my home pc it was gone so obv cancelled
