You can restrict him from seeing certain things on your page. That's what I've done with my boss. So we're friends, but little does she know..... =)

i was honestly just in the same boat as you. mad awk. so i just put limited profile before i added him. i guess thats the right thing to do ? whats a "limited" profile ? like what can't he see

ye i think parents would be a little weird.  glad my parents dont have one and they dont want one.  my friends parents tried to friend him but he just never accepted it or denied it so just do that they will never know.

Just deny it.

And stuff like this happening is why no one will use facebook in a year or two.  Mark Zuckerburg is a fool for not selling it for a shit ton of money when he had the chance.

duuuuuuuuuude, i got one from my grandma..... ballz
just straight up accept it but then go to recently added friends put them on limited profile, then go to settings (top right of screen) and change around profile view settings or something and make it so limited porfile people cant see anything but your status, they dotn know any better, you have to do this^ part for it to work, otherwise they are just your friend under a list called limited profile

Well your dad can't see the difference between you "Ignoring" his friend request and you not hitting either accept or ignore... so just ignore

My mum added me, she left it on on her computer one day so I went and blocked myself on hers so she sees nothing and doesn't realise.  If you can't do that, then limited profile them.

I've got my aunt, and distant cousins on mine, they're all on my limited profile. And my boyfriend's dad has a FB...if he ever sent me a friend request i'd be fucked.

My mum has facebook but she doesn't even want me as her friend so I have nothing to worry about. She just plays those stupid applications on it all day.
