Can I ignore a Facebook "friend" request from a relative?

You can just click “ignore” to just about everything. And “block” to all of the snowball throws and green beers.

And I agree - you don’t reject people, you ignore them as you would a Christmas card from a stalker-ish ex-boyfriend. On the off chance someone says “Did you see my friend request?” you just say “I am still figuring it all out”

No one gets a message that you are ignoring them. Or that you defriended them.
