"accidently added you on facebook"

the best friend of my crush, whom i had a fight with and didnt talk to for a year, is just telling me my crush "accidently added me on facebook" since i asked. can this be true?

I don't have Facebook anymore, but when I did, I accidentally sent a friend request to people a couple of times. They still have to accept it, of course.

It can only happen if the person was looking at your profile or looking at your name in someone else's list of friends. It only takes one click to send a friend request (no confirmation required.)

i added him and he accepted me, thats what i meant actually xDD and he didnt block me yet tho we had a 1 year long fight

Yes, they would have to have intentionally looked through someone else's friends list. That they accidentally added you I find highly inprobable. That their finger was accidentally hover over your name is unliikely. I choose to believe they were intentionally seeking you out.

Anyway, this presents a problem. That this person is a crush could be unfair to your present relationship. I guess it really depends on how your current partner feels about such things. If you feel uncomfortable asking, then there's your answer. It is obviously inappropriate.

I'm interested to know other interpretations of this.

I've done it. Under your "Friend Requests", they have a "People You May Know" list. I've accidentally added people, thinking it was part of the "Friend. Request" list.

So from this I understand you sent him a request and he accidentally accepted? I guess it could happen, especially with touchscreen phones when it's easy to tap the wrong area.

The way I see it facebook 'friends' are pretty meaningless in most cases anyway.
