How to Check Your Sent Friend Requests in VRChat
Finding out if your friend requests have been accepted in VRChat can sometimes be a bit tricky. This guide will walk you through how to check your sent friend requests so you can connect with your friends in the metaverse!
Locating Your Sent Friend Requests
Unfortunately, VRChat doesn't have a dedicated list displaying only your sent friend requests. You need to look at your friend requests as a whole, and then infer which are sent based on whether they're pending or not. Here's how:
-
Open the Friends Menu: This is usually accessed by pressing the
Fkey (or the equivalent on your controller). The exact key might depend on your platform (PC, Quest, etc.). -
Navigate to Friend Requests: Within the friends menu, you'll find a section dedicated to friend requests. This area will show you both incoming and outgoing requests.
-
Identify Sent Requests: Requests you've sent will typically show the username of the person you sent the request to, and will likely display some form of "pending" or "sent" status indicator. If you don't see a "pending" status and they are not yet in your friends list, it is likely that the request has not been accepted yet (or it may have expired if it has been a long time). Incoming requests will usually indicate that someone has requested to be your friend.
Tips for Managing Friend Requests
- Regularly check your friend requests: Keep an eye on your friend requests to see who has accepted or declined.
- Consider alternative communication: If you haven't heard back after a reasonable time, consider reaching out through other methods like in-game chat or another platform to see if your request was received.
- Be patient: People may take time to review and accept friend requests, especially if they are busy or have many requests pending.
By following these steps, you'll be able to easily check the status of your sent friend requests in VRChat and connect with the people you want to play with! Remember, patience is key!
