Weird FB Friend Request

An ex-girlfriend of DH's friend requested me today. I've only met her once, back in 2006, at a mutual friend's grad party. We were friendly to each other, but I know from stories DH told me about their relationship that she isn't the greatest person.

But regardless of that, we've never talked beyond that day, he doesn't talk to her (though they are FB friends). I know a lot of people are FB friends even though they don't talk much anymore, but we were never friends to begin with. It is just so odd.

This request will definitely be ignored/rejected. Anyone else gotten weird FB requests?

    I've gotten random people that I couldn't trace back to me and people who I just decline because I don't want to be fb friends with them. Those are usually people I really disliked when I knew them IRL.

    A few weeks ago I got a message from someone asking me how I was related to the MyLastName's. We didn't share any mutual friends and DH had no clue who she was. I thought that was strange. I didn't respond and deleted the message.

    Odd. They probably thought you were related to a different family of people with your lastname. You'd think they'd figured that out since you have no mutual friends. Some people are so weird.

    I'm not really sure. I tried creeping her profile and she was from the same area I am so I'm assuming she knew someone. I actually had forgotten about it until I read your post.

  • That is so weird! The weirdest request I got was from my hs boyfriend. We went back and forth for years and years and it was a pretty bad relationship with too many ups and downs. I told him never to speak to me again and then about 2 years later I got a fb request. I declined it - he requested me again so I declined and blocked him. I was so proud! haha.
