How To Leave Facebook Groups

How To Leave Groups On Facebook

It's quite boring or rather annoying to see yourself added to unimportant, better still irrelevant groups on Facebook and you find yourself receiving bunch of updates you did not bargain for.

It actually struck me to write this article, when a Friend called me lamenting that I should remove him from a group I had earlier added him to. It's not a crime to add your friends to groups but when they don't want to, you just have to respect their decision.

If you are added to groups you don't want, why not remove yourself. Did I hear you say  how? Worry not, here's how.
