Although Facebook can't retract invitations that have already been sent, you can delete contacts from your Invite History list. This will prevent any future invitation reminders from being sent to these people.
How do I manage the contacts I upload from the Find Friends page(ex:remove contacts,send reminder invitations,etc)?
If you invite friends to join Facebook from the Find Friends or Invite Your Friends pages, Facebook will save a list of the people you've invited and send them reminders to join.
Use this list to see which friends have joined, remove contacts, and send additional reminders. You can also delete all of your contacts, canceling any scheduled invite reminders, by clicking the Remove All Imported Contacts link.
