Have you been eyeing someone on Facebook whose profile doesn't list a relationship status, Facebook is making it easier to find out if he or she's single. Creepy huh...
Facebook has roll out a new "ask" feature for those profile pages that don't list relationship statuses. The page owner doesn't see the button — only the person who is checking out the page.
By clicking "ask," you must send the user a message related to the status (such as "want to grab a drink sometime?"), as well as a request to list a status as single, engaged, married or otherwise. Users must be friends with the person in order for the "ask" button to appear.
The owner of the Facebook page then receives a request to list select a status that only the sender can see. This means your status can remain private but visible to only those who "ask" for that information, if you so wish to divulge it.
The feature introduces a new way to use Facebook as a way to find dates. With the continuing success of online dating sites, and Facebook's massive user base, the only surprise here is that the feature wasn't introduced sooner.
For all you guys waiting for this opportunity, time to roll up...
