How to Delete Friends on Facebook Timeline

Want to delete a friend on Facebook? This guide will show you how to do it in three different ways, depending on if you and your friend are using the old Profile or the new Timeline.


First way to do it (Works for Profile and Timeline, though if your friend is using Timeline the buttons may look different than the ones of the image)

Once you have logged in to Facebook, go to the profile of the Facebook friend that you want to remove. You can do this by looking for the name of that user in the search box at the top of your page. Once you are on his or her profile, place the mouse on the “Friends” button, which is near the top center of the screen, and then click on the “Unfriend” option in the appearing menu.

Facebook will ask you if you are sure, and you will have to click on the button that says "Remove from Friends" to confirm the action.

Second way to do it (Works only if you are still using the Profile)

Once you have logged in to Facebook, on the top right hand corner of the page, click on your name or small profile picture.


Once you have done that click on the option “Friends” located in the left sidebar.


Once you have done that, you will be directed to a new page, on which you will see the list of all your Facebook friends. On that page, place your mouse on the “Friends” button at the right extreme of the friend you want to remove, and then click on the “Unfriend” option in the appearing menu.


Facebook will ask you if you are sure, and you will have to click on the button that says "Remove from Friends" to confirm the action. 

Note: If you are going to remove multiple friends, do not click on “Okay” in the next message that appears. If you do that, the page will refresh and therefore it will take you a long time to remove several friends. Just repeat the above process with the next friend you want to delete and the message will go away.

Although this way you will remove one friend at a time, this method is also the most comfortable way to remove multiple friends on Facebook.

How to do it in the new Timeline

Once you have logged in to Facebook, on the top right hand corner of the page, click on your name or small profile picture.



Then, click on the Friends box that is among the boxes that are right under your name and big cover picture.


Once you have done that, place the pointer of your mouse over the name of any friend you want to remove without clicking on it. In the small window that appears, place the pointer of your mouse over its “Friends” button, and finally, in the appearing menu, click on the “Unfriend” option.


Facebook will ask you if you are sure, and you will have to click on the button that says "Remove from Friends" to confirm the action.

Although this way you will remove one friend at a time, this method is also the most comfortable way to remove multiple friends on Facebook. Another method of deleting or removing friends from Facebook is the old version you can check here on how-to do it the alternative way.
