A place for people who have requested to friend you on facebook. Instead of confirming or denying friendship you just leave them in friend purgatory.
I got faced by an old highschool buddy but I just left them in friend purgatory until I decide if they are friend worthy and can get into my friend heaven or deny them entry.

Get the friend purgatory mug.
the act of neither confirming nor ignoring friend requests of those that I full well know and remember, but who have thrown me even the SLIGHTEST bit of shade in the past. I instead leave them to linger for days, weeks and sometimes a full month in 'friend request purgatory'--for punishment... and purification--before finally accepting their requests and welcoming them into "heaven" (i.e. my friend list)
Did your ex boyfriend friend request you? He's on Facebook now.

Yes girl, I have him locked away in Facebook friend request purgatory, to give him time to think about his choices and hopefully make better ones in the future.
