    No, there is no way to tell who has searched for you or looked at your profile on Facebook.

    Someone you trust and share secrets with, someone who has your back in any situation and gives you advice when something is wrong, someone who cares for you and you care for in return.
  • Question
    What does "flagging" mean?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    This alerts Facebook to any objectionable material. The process is simple and anonymous, so there's no risk of upsetting the friend who posted the material. Facebook allows you to flag both posts and photos that you deem offensive. After you flag the content, someone from Facebook reviews it.
  • Question

    Just type the phone number with country code on the Facebook search bar, hit enter & the associate account will show.
  • Question
    What would prevent me from finding someone as a friend?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Usually the reason why you can't find some users is because of their privacy settings. Some people disable friend requests or hide their profile from everyone except those who are friends with their friends. Blocking can also have something to do with it; if someone has blocked you, or you blocked them, you cannot search for their profile or add them as a friend.
  • Question
    I am getting a message on Facebook saying no mutual friends. What does this mean?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Mutual friends are those are friends with each other. For example, Person 1, Person 2 and Person 3 are all friends together. That means none of your friends are friends with each other, the only way they are connected is through being friends with you.
