To wonder why you'd keep adding someone as a friend on Facebook, when it should be obvious they don't want to accept?

After pressing the ignore button I then get added again - why?!

I'd be too embarrassed to keep pushing the issue!

I know you can block them, it's not about that, I'm just genuinely wondering why people would keep doing this?

I had this with PILs' best friend's next door neighbour (whom I know of but have never met) We also live 2 counties away. Took her a while to get the hint. Pure nosiness

I currently have a request waiting from my friend's step-daughter who I've met once ... nothing against her, but why...?

I had an ex colleague message me in the middle of the night (I was on a night shift) telling me she was 'wanting to know why I had removed her from facebook'.

Nothing sinister. I'd had a cull, we weren't friends, just colleagues - by then ex colleagues.

I told her to get out more.

I worry about offending people when I have a cull.

But I reckon that either they won't notice, or if they DO notice it's because they're overly interested in my life when they don't know me that well, and therefore my cull is justified.

And if they ever asked me about it, I'd just feign ignorance and say I never use FB. They won't know will they?

I've just had my creepy ex-boyfriend from uni request me. We haven't spoken in 15 years, we live in different countries, and he hasn't even used his real name. (figured out who he was by seeing his all of 5 friends were mutual uni friends.) Why?? That one will be pending until forever...

I must admit I have 're-requested my best friend from school a couple of times. We where really close, just lost contact due to moving away and new schools etc.

It pisses me off because she has people on her friend list that used bully us in school but not me.
I just keep requesting because I do wanna catch up but also now to piss her off and make her feel bad for not adding me.

I do find it very strange.

I checked in to FB to find a message saying that someoneI'd never heard of had accepted my friend request.

I was completely unaware that I had (presumably entirely accidentally) sent this woman a request as I'd never heard of her! It turns out through judicious investigating, that she was (possibly) the new wife of an extremely old school friend.

The thing is, the last time I saw him was in the 6th form, around 26 years ago, and we are not FB friends.

I am friends with one person who she may know, but she doesn't know me from Adam. Why accept me in the first place?

TOADfan if she has people that bullied you as friends then perhaps she's changed as a person and isn't the one you knew? Or perhaps they changed? She could have changed for the worst even.

I doubt she feels bad or she'd message or accept you, she probably finds it funny or she'd block you.
