Bug Description

Issue: Find friends > Send friend request > in the “Message” field, it should not let a user to type more than 255 text characters.

Solution:
from the UI perspective it's better to allow a user to type more than 255 characters, but display the standard field error message when it is more than 255. This will push the user to rewrite the message. Once the string is 255 or less the message should disappear. This will let the user know that he's fixed the error and form can be submitted.
