| You Don't Have to 'Unfriend' or Block People on Facebook to Keep Your Posts Private |
If you don't really trust someone that you've added on Facebook, but want to keep things diplomatic and don't want to 'unfriend' or block them, 'restricting' the person may be your best option. Restricting a Facebook friend keeps the friendship artificially alive while quietly hiding all but your public posts and securing your privacy.
Restricting a friend on Facebook can be done in just 2 easy steps:
| #1. Navigate to your friend's wall and find the 'Friends' dropdown in the upper right hand corner of the page. Click on the dropdown and click "Add to another list." |  |
| #2. Now make sure to remove your friend from any other lists that they may have been added to, then tick 'Restricted.' You should see a check mark appear, confirming your selection. |  |
Congratulations! You've just hidden everything you've ever shared on Facebook from the selected person. Keep in mind that this person will still be able to view your public activity and posts you've tagged them in (if any) unless you block them.
