6 Ways to Unfriend Him Subtly
4. Make yourself unavailable
Let him know that you are ‘busy’ and remain politely busy as far as he is concerned. Be it on phones, emails or facebook, never respond immediately. Delay it. And when you finally do respond, keep it social rather than personal. Plan to avoid meeting him as much as possible.
5. Ditch common acquaintances for some time
If common acquaintances are not that important for you, then ditch them for a while. The idea is to simply get away from him and his circle of friends.
6. Change your privacy settings on Facebook
With social networking websites like Facebook, it becomes very difficult to have your privacy from someone who is on your list of friends. One subtle way of hiding yourself is changing your privacy settings on Facebook. Whenever you post something, you can control who all can see it. The ‘Custom’ Settings even allow you to ‘hide’ your posts from specific people. So use this option to hide your posts from him. ‘Out of sight, out of mind’ theory will work gradually.
Through these subtle ways, he’ll get a whiff of what’s going on over time and you’ll be able to unfriend him without appearing too ruthless and sudden.
