I admit I have a lot of pending friends' requests... I was hoping they were going to expire but it looks like Facebook haven't implemented this very useful feature.

Just click the decline/ignore/whatever button. It doesn't tell them.

May be you should just not friend them? It's as easy as friending them.

It's only as easy when you look at it from the technical side (two buttons - click one). From a more social point of view there's a big difference (how big depends certainly on each person).
You'd think that Facebook would be the perfect tool for handling all this. It's not. For every long-lost chum who reaches out to me on Facebook, there's a guy who beat me up on a weekly basis through the whole seventh grade but now wants to be my buddy; or the crazy person who was fun in college but is now kind of sad; or the creepy ex-co-worker who I'd cross the street to avoid but who now wants to know, "Am I your friend?" yes or no, this instant, please.
