On facebook, if I go to someone's Wall, do I then show up as a suggestion on theirs?
Meaning, can you really look at someone’s wall privately if it’s open or do you pop up somehow on their “you might know these people” area?
I want to look at something but DON’T want to be seen, it’s not worth it

The person will not know you looked at their wall. Possibly you will pop up as you might know these people? I had never heard that though. Maybe someone else will know. The people who pop up in my you might know these poeple, usually went to the same school as me or have mutual friends with me.
right
if I pop up as a “you might know these ” I’m not visiting a few walls….
that’s the big question
@Crossroadsgrl But, if you have mutual friends with these people, you might pop up anyway.
Going to someone’s wall doesn’t make you show up. Having mutual friends or being in the same network does.
As far as I know, you’ll only show up as a suggested friend if you have friends in common, or if you’re in the same network. The more friends you have in common, the more likely it is that you’ll be suggested. Visiting someone’s profile has nothing to do with anything – even though you’ll sometimes see links to programs and things that can tell you who’s visited your profile.
Of course, if it really matters that much to you you can create a false fb account just so you can browse this person’s page, then delete it. I don’t know how some people pop up in my suggestions, in the past it has been people I have no friends in common with, so just to be safe I would do what I suggested.
