Several days ago, I found myself on the receiving end of a Friend Request from a new member, which immediately caused me to feel unnerved and suspicious.
I question if it's a generational thing, or if it's just me. At the time that I received this request, there had been no prior interaction on the forum between myself and this member. Furthermore, their member profile was completely blank. Therefore, I had no way of knowing if this person was on a similar wavelength to me, or if we had anything remotely in common.
Does anyone know how to unfriend someone? I made an error of judgement earlier today (accepting a friend request) and feel uncomfortable with the resulting situation. Stuff isn't adding up (one minute the person has a kid, the next they are at school) and it's weirding me out a bit. I wanted to help, but I'm seeing red flags - could be rampant paranoia, and I'd hate to leave someone genuine who's genuinely (?) isolated and confused feeling even more so, but nonetehlesss...
I'm sorry your finding this. I've had this too and had to remove someone.
If you go to your profile page, click friends there should be an Edit button on the top left, click that and you should be able to delete and unfollow the member that way.
:)
Haha yes perhaps

You missed typed.....that should read "too old and wise"
Reads Luna's post, goes to have a look to see if it's me, breathes a sigh of relief... :c)
On computer, you have to counter-intuitively click on 'Connect' on that person, and then it brings up a pop-up unfriend option. I'm very sorry if they were feeling truly lonely and reaching out in good faith but a confused state, and I hope they will be OK. But it felt like something less honest/real than than and I'm too old and cynical at this point not to be cautious
Many thanks
I'm using mobile not sure what it's like on computer if you're using that. But I hope you can find it :) took me ages to.
Starfox took a pic, that's how it looks on mine.
under your friends section, then it lets you click people and click unfriend :)
I looked yesterday but couldn't find anything.
I will look again.
Thank you
