How to delist yourself from Facebook?

In a moment of stupidity I listed myself as a 'friend' to someone and now want to delist myself from their account. I have no other presence on Facebook.

How to remove the entry? Thanks.

Not too familiar with it, but I think if you block them, that will take you off the list?

You would have been better in looking at the help info on Facebook, then posting on a site unrelated to them. Since you may have had difficulty in understanding how to use their Help Center, I made it easy for you.

Friends: Removing friends
How do I remove or delete a friend?
If you would like to remove a friend, navigate to the person’s profile and click the "Remove from Friends" link at the bottom of the page. If you select this option, you will be removed from the person's Friends List as well. You will need to repeat the friend confirmation process if you wish to be friends with this person again.

Sadly buddy, it doesn't delete your account and only keeps it in stasis.

I'm aware of that but we won't tell anybody that Facebook has an endless data retention policy

True. I've stripped my Facebook account 3 years ago of all data I could, and never went back.

I bet if I knew your Facebook handle it would still be there, however unfortunate

It is, of course. It pisses me I can't delete it all. However, this is a lesson learned. Never again.

Yup and once you learn the key issue should be never again as you stated above.

I remember it as social networking in reality is just another government database.

Nice conspiracy theory, but no dice on being a government database.

I wouldn't say no dice as it depends on what angle you view it from. Your just a slave who is sold online even if you don't know it.

I'm going to tell you why as what is eventually going to happen is the prison will be protected by machines and people will start to understand the prison system they built for themselves and haven't you noticed the violence lately? People are waking up but not enough yet. This will come down to the last war and when it does many men should have had the ears to listen.

This has what to do with joining a social website and that website keeping your member information forever ?

You really need to lay off whatever drugs you, it's a secret, and Jazzy are on.

Jazzy and It's a secret has you into Jet Fuel huffing, don't they ?

It has to do with the total information awareness where they have every detail of your life on a machine and your tracked like cattle and you even have a brand as they might look in your car to see how clean it is.

You should look at it like a spider web with each little section that plays a bigger role and you can even be eliminated at the press of a few buttons and pages like facebook is a data collection center that sells your information for profit and who all do think is collecting?

Many organization's play a role in this agenda and the true reason they need to control p2p is cause they need to control the flow of information and get a foot in the door for other controls.

Well I have news for them they wont be able to stop what will come and no jet fuel huffing needed as I'm sure your aware its in your vegetables.

That happens on a lot of places beside social networks. How about ISPs, subscriptions, etc.?

One way to to terminate your FB account is to violate a serious rule like faking datas (I got kicked off for not using real datas--sheesh!).

Lots of posts, here, most have none to do with what the OP asked. The title of the thread is misleading. He want's to "unaccept" someone as a friend. Not cancel his FB account.

Easiest way; At the top hover on the friends tab, then click all friends. Find the person you want to remove and click the little "x" on the right hand side of their name. That will remove your association from that person.

Thanks everyone. To clarify, I listed/joined/signed up/accepted an invitation to be a 'friend' to someone's existing Facebook account.

To do so I had to register with Facebook.

I want to delist myself as this person's friend, not unaccept someone else.

I found a link to do so that will deactivate me immediately (they say) as a friend and remove my FB presence entirely in "14 days" (again so they say).

This will happen providing I don't use that log in ever again.
