Secret Crush: New Feature on Facebook Dating

Secret Crush: Facebook he said on F8 a new feature in Facebook Dating, apparently designed to help single users attract potential mates from their friends by adding them to a seemingly private list of people.

Secret Crush

Here's how the new feature should work:

You will be able to add up to nine people to a "Secret Crush" list. These nine people will receive a notification telling them that someone has added them to a Secret Crush list. They will be able to add their own people to their own private list, and if they add you, you will both receive a notification to talk about it in Messenger.

Usually, regular Facebook and Facebook Dating exist in two different realms - your profile for one is not the same as your profile for another.

Η Secret Crush will be the first crossover between the two (and hopefully the only one). On paper, it sounds like a nice feature, especially designed for shy or introverted people who want to express their interest in someone or something else. With the new feature they won't feel embarrassed or something else bad when their interest hits a wall (crash).

It is assumed that no one will know who is who, unless it is interesting and connected.

On the other hand, if you consider the huge of Facebook and in general the relaxed attitude that the social network has towards consumer data, then the above news will probably cause you concern. After a year of personal data leak scandals, starting with Cambridge Analytica, I don't think I'd trust Facebook with my birthday, let alone a super secret list of girlfriends I'm having sex with.

Facebook Dating can give Facebook's advertising partners the chance to have more of your preferences.

Facebook Dating starts today in 14 more . The list does not include Greece, which is expected to start sometime this year.
