How to Tell Who Recommended Friends on Facebook

Grow your social network by accepting new Facebook friends.

Facebook lets users suggest friends to their personal social network. The normal practice is to go to a friend's profile, click the "Suggest Friends" link and select the friends you want to suggest. Both friends will receive a friend suggestion invitation. Both users will need to click the "Add as Friend" button to accept the suggestion. On the same "Friend Requests" menu, you can see exactly who suggested that person to you as a friend.

Instructions

1. Sign in to your Facebook account by entering your email address and password and clicking "Login."

2. Go to the left of top navigation bar, and click the "Friends" icon next to the Facebook logo. The icon looks like two people grouped together.

3. View the suggested user's name from the "Friend Requests" menu. Below the person's name and add button, it will say which of your friends suggested her to you. The line is labeled as "Suggested by" with your friend's name behind it.
