Why does my coworker FB page show in "people you may know section"?

[Anonymous]

I've noticed in the past people creeping on my page, old bosses/coworkers.. This coworker that always looks at me randomly showed up on the people you may know section. Is he checking out my page?

There are a few reasons why your coworker might be showing up in your "People You May Know" section on Facebook:
* Shared Connections: You and your coworker may have mutual friends or connections on Facebook.
* Similar Interests: If you and your coworker share similar interests, Facebook's algorithm may suggest you as a potential connection.
* Location Proximity: If you live in the same area, Facebook might suggest you as a connection based on your location.
* Facebook's Algorithm: Facebook's algorithm is constantly evolving and may suggest connections based on various factors, including your interactions with other users.
Regarding your concern about your coworker checking out your page:
* Direct Evidence: The only way to know for sure if your coworker is checking out your page is to have direct evidence, such as them commenting on your posts or sending you messages.
* Indirect Clues: While indirect clues like appearing in your "People You May Know" section might be suggestive, they don't necessarily mean your coworker is intentionally checking out your profile.
If you're uncomfortable with your coworker looking at your profile, you can:
* Adjust Your Privacy Settings: Review your Facebook privacy settings and adjust them to limit who can see your posts and profile information.
* Unfriend or Block: If you're really uncomfortable, you can unfriend or block your coworker on Facebook.
Remember, it's important to respect people's privacy and avoid making assumptions based on limited information.

Because your phones are near each other when you both have the app open or running.

Your phone tracks your location.


Facebook has access to your location.


This goes for everyone with a phone.


If facebook notices your phone and someone else’s phone are in the same place often, it will suggest them to you as a friend.


Now you also know why it suggests random ass people you’ve probably only ever walked past at the store.

Probably not, you just have mutuals somewhere along the line. You may not be able to think of who could know him but people have connections you wouldn’t expect. It’s a small world.

It could be that he’s looking you up if yous don’t have any mutual friends and you haven’t clicked on his page at all

Because Facebook thinks it's people you may know

How about asking Facebook?
