Facebook friend request aargh fuck

[WellAlwaysHaveParis]

Accidentally sent someone a Facebook friend request but cancelled it immediately. Will the person still be able to see that I sent the request???!! Fuck's sake.

Urgent answers needed please!!!

Been there too, just be honest if it comes up. Sometimes if you have people’s number on your phone you can see them in your people you may know part of Facebook I’ve accidentally pressed add friend whilst being nosy.
Recently a guy who I say hi to at the pub tried to add me but I prefer not to add acquaintances so he cancelled his request no big deal really.

Why is meeting people on tinder/online stupid? Just because Someone doesn’t do it for their own personal reasons doesn’t mean it’s wrong for op or many other people looking to meet someone.
Meeting Someone at work is near on impossible - 1 male member of staff 50 plus women. I’m a single parent so don’t really have the opportunity to get out regularly to clubs etc and would most likely have a kid with me, not really an appropriate place to pick up men tbh. Besides it’s a woman’s own personal choice to meet men in the way they feel comfortable and convenient not to be judged for it by people who don’t ‘approve’

Thanks everyone.

I accidentally sent a friend request to someone I don't know while scrolling through "people I might know." I hadn't realised I had done it until they accepted my request 🤔 I unfriended them straight away but who accepts friend requests from people they don't know or even send a message asking who I am?

I have a mate who has a fake random account specifically for stalking PMSL incase she likes or adds them, perhaps you should do that in future...

Yes they will get an email. My ex accidentally followed me on twitter and quickly unfollowed - I still got an email.

Oh god thanks so much everyone. Look like I'll have to ask someone else to do my Facebook due diligence stalking for me in future

Depends.of they have phone notifications on or email notifications. I one got a notificatoon of a friend request from my ex's crazy new gf. Found it hilarious as she removed the request straight away but I knew she had been Facebook stalking me.

Just log out before you stalk, OP.

RhiWrites I would've done (my usual stalking method ) but his profile is one of those that only comes up when you're logged in.

GUYS, it's 2020 and this is an old thread, but I just did this... and was researching what might happen and landed here. I was accepting a friend request and then accidentally tapped "add friend" on the first person on the "people you may know" below that on my phone... it was no other than an ex... OH MY GOD... I was mortified, immediately tapped "undo" but was so bothered that I took it a step further and just decided to block them after... My mentality was "well even if they get the initial notification about the request, if they try to tap my profile my page won't show up for them now"... and I can play it off if anyone asks (or to make myself feel better hahahaha) that "I was just trying to block them anyway and sent the request by accident in the process". OOOOOF. I'm slightly embarrassed and can hope they don't receive any notification, but in reality they may get some form of notification, blocking made me feel somewhat better about it. Our relationship didn't end well so I feel I should've blocked him a while ago anyway, but sheesh D; that is NOT how I wanted to do that hahahaha.
