If you send a lot of friend requests, you may run into a problem where you have too many pending requests, and can't send any more!

If this happens you will need to cancel some of the requests yourself. Here's how!:

First, hover over 'Social' in the left menu, then click 'Friends':

On the Friends page, if you have any incoming or outgoing requests, you will see the Friend Requests menu:

Click on 'Outgoing' to see your sent requests.

Click the 'X' to cancel the request!
