And even if I did, I would not have sent this person an invitation to join Facebook because I do not know them hardly at all. I probably do have two degrees of separation, but I'm not sure if my friend has this person friended. Creepy. I don't like it.

If Facebook is your log in email and you did the search for friends thing when you first signed up, it will tell you when someone you have the email address for signs up or changes their search settings.

If you log into facebook with your gmail then they may know your contact list... Particularly if you've ever done that thing where you search for friends on facebook? Or could there be, instead of a mutual friend, TWO degrees of separation? (I don't know if facebook is capable of that.) Creepy!

It keeps suggesting this guy that I dated for a few weeks as a friend.. the only things connecting us are that we have corresponded via email, and we are both 'fans' of the same local queer group. If you find out how this happened to you, I'd love to know. My profile is very locked down on Facebook, and this is totally creeping me out. I’ve had this happen, too, and it’s really creepy.

Very, very creepy. This happened to me as well – except it’s an email that is only in an email account I haven’t used or logged into for over a year. Very, very creepy.
