Why do I get a notification when someone updates their status? - Cornilius - 08-24-2013 12:30 PM

So I clicked on my notifications on Facebook and it said "so and so updated her status..." I checked the status and my name wasn't tagged in anything. I don't think I'm subscribed to her and I looked to see if we were close friends and were not. Lol could she have done something on her Facebook ??

P.S; I don't know if this has anything to do with it but, on my chat list, she's one of my favorites ,, I have about 9 ppl as a favorite and she's the only one that shows up?!? Can someone explain this lol

you probably added that person as a "close friend"

if you dont want those notifications, then remove them from your "close friends" list

You must unfriend that person.

If the person is not a Close friend, another answer could be that you have manually checked "Get notifications" from this friend.

Try:
- Go to the friend's timeline
- Hover your mouse over the Friends button
- If "Get notifications" is checked, uncheck it
