Facebook helps you get through your breakup

Being Facebook official is a thing but what happens after the relationship goes sour and you’re through with your partner? Facebook is hoping to make the transition a bit easier for you with the new tools they’re testing out. Once you indicate in your relationship status that you’re no longer in a relationship, Facebook will prompt you to try out a variety of tools.

These include seeing less of a former partner’s name and profile picture as well as posts on the site without having to block or unfriend them. Their name also won’t be suggested when people write you a new message or when to tag friends in photos. It can also limit what your ex can see. Edit past posts with a former partner and untag yourself from posts with that person. Facebook is testing these out on mobile in the US and will roll out further based on feedback. The tools are optional and can be accessed in the help center.
