Why can't I send friend requests on Facebook?
Hey there! You can't send a friend request if the person has set their privacy settings to 'Friends of Friends' or if they've blocked you. Try sending a message first!

If you can't send a friend request, the other person might have their privacy settings tight. Check if you share mutual friends or try sending a message first.
You might've hit Facebook's friend request limit! Try canceling a few pending requests or wait a bit to send more.
If the 'Add Friend' button is missing, they might have disabled friend requests. You could follow their public posts instead!
Facebook might've restricted you from sending friend requests for a while if you've sent too many recently or if some were marked as spam. Just give it a bit of time.
