To hide your mutual friends on Facebook, you can adjust your privacy settings. Here’s how to do it:
1. Hide Mutual Friends from Specific People:
If you want to hide your mutual friends from specific people, follow these steps:
1. Go to your Facebook profile.
2. Click on the three dots (more options) next to your profile picture.
3. Choose “Edit Privacy”.
4. Under “How People Find and Contact You”, find “Who can see your friend list?”.
5. Change this setting to “Only Me” or a specific audience like “Friends” or “Custom”.
6. If you choose “Custom,” you can exclude certain people from seeing your friend list.
2. Hide Your Friend List from Everyone:
This option ensures that no one can see your friends, including mutual friends.
1. Go to your Profile page.
2. Click on the “Friends” tab.
3. On the top right, click the pencil icon (Edit Privacy).
4. Change the “Friend List” setting to “Only Me” or adjust it to your desired privacy level.
3. Hide Mutual Friends on Your Profile:
While you cannot specifically hide only mutual friends (since Facebook automatically shows them based on your relationships), hiding your friend list entirely will prevent people from seeing both your friends and mutual friends.
4. Adjusting Privacy Settings for Friend Requests and Other Information:
You can also limit how people interact with your friend list in other ways:
– Friend Request Settings: Go to Settings & Privacy > Settings > Privacy > “Who can send you friend requests?” and adjust who can send you friend requests.
– Profile Visibility: Under your privacy settings, you can also adjust who can see your posts, photos, and other information that may indicate mutual connections.
By controlling your friend list visibility and general profile settings, you can manage how others view your mutual friends on Facebook.
