speak Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Is it okay to add someone on FB you've talked to/been around a couple times that you also have a mutual friend on FB with? I don't know if there is some etiquette that people go by on FB but yeah... Opinions?? Link to comment
Missed Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Well yeah I find it happens a fair bit. I normally accept their request and delete them after a while as we normally only cross paths infrequently. Link to comment
Gloworm Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Is their profile pretty open? I would just send them the friend request and maybe a message saying hello and reacquainting yourself. If they decline for whatever reason, then so be it, you wont have to waste anymore time cultivating that friendship. Link to comment
Dottieflanogon Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 It depends on the person, some people wouldn't mind and some people do,Facebook is really meant to keep in touch with the friends you already have, though it can be a resource to make new friends as well.I'd say ... Go for it. If you're still not comfortable then ,the next time you see the person, you should ask if they have a facebook page and if they wouldn't mind you adding them Link to comment

But there are pictures of the person on the page. Link to comment
speak Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Dottie, I was going to PM you but not sure if I can... Does enotaline still offer that option?? Link to comment
Gloworm Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I agree with "the next time you see the person, you should ask if they have a facebook page and if they wouldn't mind you adding them" Link to comment
Batya33 Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I think it's fine since there is a mutual friend. I have never ever heard that FB is to keep in touch with current friends -sure it is but it's a great site for networking. One of my FB friends (who I met at a wedding) met her husband through Facebook - they started dating 13 months ago, been married for one month. Link to comment
alli Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I have people I don't even know try to add me! I don't think it's a breach of etiquette or anything to try to add them, but some people prefer to keep only close friends & family on their Facebook & don't accept requests from everyone. Even if they don't add you back I don't think it's a big deal. Link to comment
