Facebook wants to know with which friends you would sleep with | Chronic

At the annual developer conference in California, USA, Facebook announced Secret Crush, the striking new feature of its platform. According to data provided by the company, out of more than 2.3 billion social network users, 200 million do not have a stable partner.

Facebook Dating users can choose up to nine friends with whom they want "Express interest". If any of them also has a profile, it will receive a notification indicating that someone is interested in it. If both coincide, Facebook will reveal their names.

However, in the case where the person who has been marked as a crush does not appear on Dating, there is no need to worry, because if the interest is not not reciprocal, nobody will know that you have put his name on the list.

The operation is similar to that used by Tinder, but it does a search directly into your social circle of real life. This should give you an advantage over dating apps. For Facebook, it's a way to attract more people to your platform.
