Facebook Introduces “Couples Pages” Because Gross


We’ve all know couples who refused to abide by Facebook’s rules and chose to share a single account right? And in the cases where we weren’t already pretty sure that one half of the couple had been caught maybe getting to re-know old high school girlfriends just a bit too well, didn’t we all kind of think it was icky? Well, prepare for a lot more icky. Facebook has introduced “couples pages” to let people in relationship share an identity online. The reaction has been unkind, especially since the new tool actually goes ahead and automatically combines the information of couples without asking them. “You may have just forced me, a newlywed, to take finally take the plunge and break up with my husband on Facebook,” Emma Barnett writes.
