Adding friends
Search for your friend’s profile using the search bar at the top of your profile. Find the person you know and click on the "Add as Friend" button to the right of their profile name.

A friend request will be sent to that person. Once they confirm that they actually are friends with you, they will show up on your friends list.

Please note that privacy settings may limit your ability to see the "Add as Friend" link for some users.

Facebook is a place for connecting with friends, family, and other people you know personally.

If you’ve been prevented from adding friends on Facebook, it’s likely because friend requests you’ve sent have gone unanswered or members reported your contact as unwelcome.

You’ll be allowed to add friends again soon. At that time, please remember to only send friend requests and messages to people who you already know personally. Otherwise, additional limits may be placed on your account.

Learn about our policies by reading the Facebook Community Standards.

Please note that privacy settings may limit your ability to see the "Add as Friend" link for some users. Also, once you’ve sent a friend request to a particular user, you cannot send another.

Be sure to only send friend requests to people you know personally. We may block you from sending friend requests if requests you’ve sent have gone unanswered or members reported your contact as unwelcome.

Removing friend requests
No. The friend request will be removed from your list of friendships to confirm, and the sender won't be notified.

If you delete a friend request, the request is removed from your Requests page. The sender won't know that you've deleted the request. However, the sender may send you another request in the future.

Pending friend requests
Please provide adequate time for the person to take action on the request as they may have missed the notification email or may have not seen it on their Home page yet. If you sent this request using the Friend Finder, please make sure that you sent it to an email address that is listed on this person's account. If the request was sent to a different email address, then it will not appear in their account.

First, please make sure that you received this request at an email address that is listed on your account. If the request was sent to a different email address then it will not show in your account. You can send the other person a friend request from your account, or you can ask them to request you as a friend again at the appropriate email address.

There's currently no place on the site where you can see all your sent pending requests. However, if you go to someone's profile you can tell your friend status based on the following.
  • If you see "Add as Friend," then you don't have a friend request pending.
  • If you see "Awaiting friend confirmation," you'll know that you've sent a request that hasn't yet been confirmed.
  • If you see the "Remove friend" link, you'll know you've both confirmed your friendship.

You can remove contacts you uploaded using friend finder here.

Although we cannot retract invitations that have already been sent, you can delete contacts from your Invite History list. This will prevent any future invitation reminders from being sent to these people.

Friend connections on Facebook must be confirmed by both users involved. This happens through an initial friend request or invitation to join the site and a confirmation of the request by the recipient. It is not technically possible to become friends with someone without this confirmation.

A friend request can be sent manually or through features like Friend Finder and Classmate/Co-worker Search.

When using these features, please be aware that multiple friend requests and invitations can be sent simultaneously. If a user signs up through these invitations, they will automatically be added to your friend list.

If a large number of your Facebook friends disappeared, your account may be compromised.
  1. Change your password: Pick something that's different from other passwords you use on the Internet and keep this information completely to yourself.
  2. Make sure that all email addresses associated with your account are secure. Remember that anyone who can read your email may be able to also access your Facebook account.
  3. Learn more about keeping your account secure.
