don't accept random friendships from people you dont' have an active desire to be friends with on fb. then if you do. just be straight forward. if they persist, unfriend and block them.

You talk about not wanting to hurt feelings and that's understandable but if they persist and ignore your statements (assuming you first do this) that you want to just be friends, how are they thinking of your feelings? *shrug* Idk, that's grounds for me to cut them off and not even worry about their feelings. reciprocity is a thing. can't worry about the feelings of others that dont' care how you feel at all.
