Does Facebook sent friend requests on its own?

[Mallory]

Hmm, maybe there was a glitch, or you read it wrong and they were sending you a friend request... are you sure that it's not a reccomended friend request? if you don't know this person personally i suggest that you immediately de- friend them and report it. they may have hacked your account, just to add them as a friend... even if your messages are left the same. maybe try going into your settings and making sure nothing's been changed? that's a head scratcher... but to answer your question, no, facebook does not send requests on vit's own.
