Open Facebook and search for the person’s name
Go to the person’s profile
Look for the Friend Request button or Add Friend button
If it says Friend Request Sent, your request has been sent
If it says Add Friend, you have not sent a request yet
If it says Friends, you are already connected
Check the Friend Requests section to see pending requests you sent
Open your Sent Requests list to confirm requests you have sent
If the button is missing, the person may have restricted friend requests
