Friends husband keeps adding me and removing me from Facebook. Aibu?

[Diamondangel8]

Friends husband who I am friends with keeps removing me as a friend in Facebook and then requesting me as a friend. He has done it 6 times in the last month. I currently have a friend request from him which I have left. I don't understand why but don't want to really ask. It's peeing me off. aibu? Any clue as why this is going on?

Just message and say.... Oh thought we were already friends? Is something wrong with your account xx

I think some people get confused by the “friend suggestion” bit. A woman in a group I’m in recently apologized for not adding people from the friend suggestion list as she only adds people she knows in real life. Everyone was a bit bemused by her apology, as no one had sent her a friend request. They were trying to explain it to her.

My mum also painstakingly goes through the friend suggestion bit and presses all the x marks. However, my mum has a small phone screen so ends up hitting the friend request button instead. She then gets stressed because Facebook keeps adding people she doesn’t know. I keep telling her that she doesn’t need to press the x buttons and just to ignore the friend suggestions but she doesn’t listen. So, it might be something like that.

Reckon @ShalomJackie got it.

Yes I've just left it unresponded to this time . I just thought it was bizarre.

Or it could be the other way around. He is unfriending you and wife is readding because she’s your friend and doesn’t want it to reflect badly on her.

Facebook sends the Friend Requests. People themselves don't send them. So Facebook is sending you a Friend Request from him, you are saying Accept, then he is Unfriending you because he can't understand why you are wanting to be his friend on Facebook. Is this not how Facebook works?
Facebook looks at your contacts friends and then suggests them to you.

seaweed not how it works, Facebook suggests friends to you but then you have to actively ‘add’ them yourself and they have to accept the request before you’re connected on there

There’s a doctors receptionist at my surgery that keeps doing this to me too.
I do know her as she was the year above me at school but we were never extremely good friends, but she’s now added and deleted me 4 times now in the past few months.
It’s bloody weird.
I’m guessing she wants a snoop but can’t see my things unless we are friends and then deletes me when she’s looked, then adds me again to snoop again?
It’s really really odd.
But when I have a doc app she’ll ask after my kids by name, so she obviously spends enough time on my fb profile to know my kids names?
I’ve not added her most recent request and just checked and she’s deleted the friend request she sent me!
Some people are odd.

Block him and the problem is solved. Bloody weirdo.

It’s equally bizarre that you keep re accepting him.

I'm no longer on Facebook but one friends dickhead former fiancé did this twice and another's husband several times

It's odd isn't it? 🤔

@Seaweed42, Facebook sends friend SUGGESTIONS. People themselves send friend REQUESTS. Two completely different things.

It’s a digital wank bank. He deletes when caught or the “mrs” is getting suspicious. Adds when he needs his fodder again.

Leaves no trail of saving the pictures but he will know which ones he likes, will say crazy gf deleted as she’s insecure and that’s why he has to keep adding you. She will likely have no bloody idea.

Yes it's very odd!!

Seems to me like he’s adding you, then he and his DW are having an argument over him being friends with you on fb, so he makes a show of deleting you, and then wants to add you again to see what you’re up to. It just felt like that to me as soon as I read your OP. Did he ever fancy you do you think?

I'd just block him and move on.

Block and move on, dude! Stop letting his weirdness dictate your response

It's a Facebook glitch, most likely. I am having the same issues but with people I am close to

I think it's quite likely that ShalomJackie is right too! Otherwise, weird.
Agree, just ignore his friend request - I don't think you need to fully block him.

Honestly, my mind would go to genuine mistake or incompetence rather than weirdo stalker. Just ignore his friend request and leave it hanging. Blocking is a bit extreme.
