I guess I didn't realize I have this set up in my preferences, because I received an email today. Then I realized that other people probably have this set up too, and think I'm checking up on them rather than I just hit a funky button on my iPad.  I hit the funky button A LOT. I'm not checking up on you--I promise. |

Haha! I didn't know that sent a notification! People probably think I am stalking them too- I scroll through on my phone a lot and always accidentally hit people's names. I promise I am not stalking either!

I accidentally hit all kinds of stuff I don't mean to when I'm scrolling on my iPad. Sorry to those who think I'm stalking them!

So wait...if I FB stalk somebody, it tells them I searched them?
How do I turn it on so I can see who views my profile?
I don't think I like this!!

Similarly, this is how I accidentally make new friends on Facebook. I'm always like WHO accepted my request? I didn't make any requests! I then don't want to defriend them after supposedly befriending them, so I play it cool. So far, they've all been friends of friends, but now I obsessively check to make sure I haven't accidentally sent a request to a random person as I scroll. I've accidentally checked out profiles here too, but I didn't know it sent notifications.

I get those notifications once in a while. I know it's an accident because I'm much too boring to check out! I know I've hit that button by accident a few times myself.

Not that I'm the stalker my posts are letting on to but I do like to keep an eye on a certain young adult family friend who is going through some issues and has disconnected with pretty much everyone. And I may pull up my ex every once in a while to remind myself how lucky I am that I have DH!  |

I didn't even know that you could like a post and it would show up on the person's notifications. I saw a number over the profile tab and thought I was in trouble already! LOL

Wow scary! I will occasionally do that if say there is a long thread and I just want to read the OP's posts for an update so I go to her profile.

I get them almost everyday, but it doesn't have a name on it, just "someone is checking out your profile' no biggie. I assume they're looking for a party.

Sometimes I just have a random wrong click, other times [like Annabella mentioned] I want the latest update without reading 5 pages, and sometimes I just miss seeing someone and want to know when they last posted. Ok, I admit it I am a stalker!  |

I will look at someone's profile if someone's new or hasn't posted much, sometimes looking for a certain older topic and the only way I can find it is because I can remember who was participating, looking for a website or Etsy link because of a certain post in a thread, looking for someone that's been missing, or I notice a certain attitude (good or bad) and want to see if that's their normal MO or a one off, lots of reasons to click on a profile. Nothing wrong with it at all. It isn't stalking, the ability is put their for a reason.
I didn't know you could set it up to be notified, where is that option?

Fyi, a friend told me that on FB, the other party you are viewing will show your profile as a suggested friend to add so in a way, they can tell who has been viewing their info. |

Why is it such a crime to look at someone else's facebook page? Its not like I'm sneaking into their home while they're asleep and going through their things. Plus, its on the INTERNET for everyone in the universe to see. So, where's the harm?
eta, ok I see its here not facebook.

Ok, I admit it I am a stalker! Yeah, this. I am often gone from here for a month or more at a time and people will sometimes reference something that happened in that time so I have to stalk people to get caught up. Or someone will talk about something said on another thread...gotta check it out. |

I've accidentally checked out profiles here too, but I didn't know it sent notifications. This! How the hell does that happen? My daughter got an accept for a friend request, to a daughter of a friend of mine that my daughter doesn't even know. She never sent a friend request and didn't even know the girl's name. We couldn't figure out what the hell happened. She unfriended her and changed her password. |

I've accidentally checked out profiles here too, but I didn't know it sent notifications. My dog bumped my arm last night while I was on my phone, causing me to friend request a stranger whose name was listed on the 'people you may know' in my feed. Oops! Fyi, a friend told me that on FB, the other party you are viewing will show your profile as a suggested friend to add so in a way, they can tell who has been viewing their info. But that's not always the case - there are so many people listed under "people you may know" that I would bet that very few have actually viewed my FB profile. |

Besides accidentally clicking on someone's profile, I'll also do it if I remember someone posted on a topic but can't remember the thread title. I do that fairly often.
