Q&A for How to Unfriend on Facebook

To stop seeing their profile you need to block them. Once you block them, you will no longer see their profile and they will no longer be able to see yours.

Facebook now has a feature to mute someone you're friends with, so you won't unfriend them, but you won't see their posts.

Go to the friend's profile and look at their friends list. You should see a list of mutual friends. Unfriend those people, and then unfriend the friend.

There is an extension for Chrome to do so, but it will only delete public accounts, not private ones. Those you'll have to delete manually. Alternatively, you could just delete your account. You can create a new one later, but if you want to use the same email, you may have to wait up to 14 days.

They would be able to tell when checking their friends list, looking at your profile, etc. A better solution might be to Unfollow; that way their feeds won't show up on your wall. You could also consider putting them in an "Acquaintances" category and only have your posts show up for those in the Friends category.
