How to Await a Confirmation for a Relationship on Facebook

Print this articleIn a world where many people share their personal lives on Facebook, some may ask: is a relationship really official if it is not posted on your Facebook profile? On Facebook, users have many options for listing their relationship status, including "Married," "It's complicated," "In an open relationship," and "In a domestic partnership." A user can list the name of her special someone so all her Facebook friends know she is taken and off the dating market.
