Facebook friends, confused.? - becks - 03-24-2014 10:27 AM

I have previously asked posted the same question but I didnt get to see the answers. Ok so..
I added someone on facebook about a month ago, its obvious they are using their facebook account. Its still showing as "Awaiting friend confirmation" What does this mean?. Also on my news feed, It said that they had recently joined a group. If they havent accepted my friend request yet why is it showing on my news feed that they have joined a group? Can anyone help me?.
Also, i went onto their profile before and it said add as friend. i done it again and this box came up saying something about me having already sent a request Confused

When you make a friend request, the friend is added as a "connection" in your friends list. Depending on their privacy setting, you can follow their actions. (facebook is trying to copy twitter) even though they haven't accepted your friend request.

Also, facebook doesn't let you know that a person has ignored your friend request because they don't want to hurt your feelings. They keep telling you "awaiting friend confirmation" even though the person has already rejected you.

It seems like they are just holding the friend request in limbo and not responding to it. This may be because this person doesn't really know you that well and is hesitant about adding you.

That is kinda ridiculous because we all have social networking friends that we don't know that well. This person obviously doesn't want to add you but doesn't have the balls to hit ignore.
