Cancel Facebook Friend Request

Whether you are canceling the demand because it was an accident or your relationship has turned sour, canceling a friend demand utilized to be difficult.

The only way you could accomplish it was by blocking the user all together. Thankfully, you can now cancel that demand. All you need to do is check out the user's profile after you have actually requested them as a buddy.

Follow these actions to Cancel Facebook Friend Request:

• First, if needed, login to your Facebook account


• When you are signed in, discover the Facebook user to whom you sent that demand you want to recall. Click that person's profile, and scroll to the bottom of the page.


• You will see on the left a link that checks out "Report/ Block this individual" - click on it.

• As quickly as you do, Facebook will open a popup dialog that appears like the screenshot listed below, and enables you to block a Facebook user. All you need to do is examine the "Block this person" checkbox and click the "Send" button.

• Within a second or so, Facebook will process your request and return a verification message that the individual you tried to befriend has been blocked:.

• Keep in mind that this doesn't impact their profile and won't get them in trouble. But it has the following adverse effects: any Facebook user to whom you sent a good friend demand will never ever see that request, because you changed their status with regard to your profile.

(Obviously, Facebook will no process a buddy demand that has actually been sent out to a person you blocked, because the individual could not validate a friendship.).

And this is how easily you can cancel buddy requests on Facebook, without actually needing to manually unsend the friendship demand.

If you intend on maybe ending up being friends with that person in the future, we advise that you unblock them immediately, before you forget about the block: see how to unclog users on Facebook.

Pointer: there is one case in which you will not be able to delete a buddy demand you sent out to a specific Facebook user - this is when you block that individual after they have actually already seen the friendship demand.

Obviously, whether they have selected to accept it or reject it, the desired effect of unsending the demand will be void. So ensure to withdraw good friend requests rapidly!
