No Ability To Remove Friends?

Hi, I have received messages that I got a new friend.  But I never requested a friend, and I never clicked anything to accept any friend request, and I have all socials disabled in settings.  How did this even happen?  I checked internet, it says to remove friend go to friends list, and click the remove friend icon.  But there is no icon.  It says I have 6 friends!?  I never met or friended any of them.  Why is this happening?  Also, beside their images the only icon dealing with friends says "Add Friend".  I clicked it to see maybe it gives option to remove?  But all it did was send a friend request????  What the heck is going on?  Below is screenshot of my "friends list" which I never asked for in the first place.  And it angers me that I have now wasted over an hour of my life investigated this garbage, and hour I'll never get back.  Look at image, to right of faces it says "add friend".  How dumb is that?  They are already my friends.  And there is NO REMOVE FRIEND ICON.  So why does chess.com advice about removing friends say there is?

It's likely a request and you can click the X to deny it.

 

Or go to Connect > Friends > Friend Requests and do the same.
