As my image shows, I got 2 friend requests (got them actually BEFORE these new number notifications became a thing).

But they are in the Notifications tab, but the Friends tab shows the 2. Then at the bottom of my friends list where all the Friend Requests are.... it shows the 2 there again, but you cant even click on there to see all friend requests....and on top of that, it doesnt even show the 2 Friend Requests setting all this off.

When I go to the Notifications tab, sure enough those friend requests are in there....as is a notification I got 11 hrs ago, but the Notifications tab didnt light up "1" like it did when I got the Notification for Clubs last night.
