Or Facebook recommending people that I’ve talked to by text and never met irl (met on dating app, moved to text, fizzled out) when it’s not supposed to have access to my contacts.
Assuming this isn’t because the person you’re contacting has lax privacy set up in their FB account, have you ever played “6 degrees of Kevin Bacon”? You (I assume) probably live near this person, are probably approximately the same age, single, you may even have some obscure friends in common. Or friends of friends. And what you don’t remember are the countless recommendations that are totally off base. For every “uncanny” friend recommendation I get, there are dozens of people I don’t know.

Yeah but Facebook probably has access to the other person’s contacts where your name and phone number were stored
That’s a good point. She popped up after she changed my contact info to my new name, which I updated on FB a few weeks ago.
Though it did happen with another girl I was talking to last year and haven’t talked to since.
