Facebook has announced a new feature which will help people see less of their ex-partners when they break up.
When you change your relationship status from “in a relationship”, Facebook will now inform you that you can limit what you can see from your ex, and you can also limit what they can see about you.



Kelly Winters, a Facebook product manager, said:
This work is part of our ongoing effort to develop resources for people who may be going through difficult moments in their lives.
We hope these tools will help people end relationships on Facebook with greater ease, comfort and sense of control.
It’s all a bit Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, really.
