Question

Why can I still see someone's profile if I deleted the friendship?

Community Answer

To stop seeing their profile you need to block them. Once you block them, you will no longer see their profile and they will no longer be able to see yours.

Question

How do I remove friends who no longer play the games I play from game request lists without unfriending them?

Community Answer

Facebook now has a feature to mute someone you're friends with, so you won't unfriend them, but you won't see their posts.

Question

How do I delete a friend and any friends associated with them?

Community Answer

Go to the friend's profile and look at their friends list. You should see a list of mutual friends. Unfriend those people, and then unfriend the friend.

Question

How do I unfriend all of my friends on Facebook?

Community Answer

There is an extension for Chrome to do so, but it will only delete public accounts, not private ones. Those you'll have to delete manually. Alternatively, you could just delete your account. You can create a new one later, but if you want to use the same email, you may have to wait up to 14 days.

Question

How can I unfriend people without them knowing it?

Community Answer

They would be able to tell when checking their friends list, looking at your profile, etc. A better solution might be to Unfollow; that way their feeds won't show up on your wall. You could also consider putting them in an "Acquaintances" category and only have your posts show up for those in the Friends category.
