The ability to view outgoing friend requests on the Facebook application provides users with a record of connection attempts made to other individuals. This feature allows confirmation that a request was successfully sent and also reveals requests that are still pending acceptance.
Tracking outgoing requests can aid in managing online presence and understanding network growth. Individuals may review this list to identify potentially forgotten or unacknowledged connection attempts. Furthermore, this feature provides historical context regarding past interactions and relationship-building efforts on the platform.
