How long should I wait before cancelling a friend request?

[Anonymous]

Me being a guy, i like her, there's a chance she likes me too. I sent her a fb request some hours ago, how long should i wait before cancelling if nothing happens?

If you really think there's a chance she might like you too, why would you delete your friend request? Dude just because she hasn't accepted it right away doesn't mean she won't. Chill out. If she's attractive, she probably gets a lot of friend requests. Be patient

Just leave it open. Not everyone lives on social media. Some people have lives. So she could be working, with family, or whatever else. If she likes you she'll accept it, if not she'll reject it. Make the decision hers and not just cancel something like that.
