I cant see this working at all. Young people don't use facebook much, and it takes away from anonymity. People dont want their whole life story on a dating ap, just a few carefully selected/edited pics.

The Apps will be separate according to Facebook, so your FB network won't know you are on it for dating.

FB dating will scrub your FB profile for info to inform matches but they will not cross-pollinate. Sort of like how Whatsapp does not *necessarily* cross lines with Facebook even though both share information between each other constantly on your phone.

Also, who says nobody is on FB? Everybody has Instagram or Whatsapp, FB still has everyone by the balls. FB may not be as cool anymore but they still have the masses plugged into their products.

All in all, FB can smell the blood in the water. Last year when the threshold of people partaking in online dating became the majority it likely leading a spark to get FB into action.

Facebook has the febile by the balls. You can more wisley use your time by engaing people in your social network with texts and phone calls. IMO approaching and calling women is a much more efficient use of time (close percentage, time spent, woman quality) and better for individual development. No fake pics, snapchat filters, or odd camera angles to sort through. Dating apps are full of attention whores, single mothers, cheating wives, old hags, or otherwise undesireable women. Don’t hop on the Facebook grenade.

<kosko> Incorrect. Not everyone has a social media account. Forum members are being naive if you think that Facebook will not link the information to other products and services. The US government can access anyones’ Facebook account. If you are running game on many ladies, and if they have resources at their disposal (like an FBI white knight or money), someone will access this information and provide it to them, blowing your cover. Probably, not your typical 19 year old THOT, but maybe a few of the LEO fathers are willing to violate your privacy to protect their daughter. How do I know? It happened to me with a state trooper’s daughter in 2008. The last time I used social media for game.

Agree but in a slightly different way. I fear the fast and steady creep of two different phenomena in to all aspects of life. The first is the sexual-socialization of any domain in which men and women happen to be together. Obviously in any mixed setting, there is a chance for sexual or romantic outcomes, but I worry about it becoming the primary or one of the major purposes of things like Facebook. Remember, several of these social media platforms were set up for other purposes and have suffered from a kind of mission creep. What's to stop other platforms and apps from introducing "dating" functions in the near future. It's all about the money, after all, and dating sites make bank. But, there have to be some areas of our life in which we can socialize without the sexual or relationship "stuff" being omnipresent.

The first of the two points made here is particularly interesting and is something I had not thought of. The sexual-socialization phenomenon you speak of is very real and is particularly detrimental, in two ways which are inextricably related.

Women, being emotional creatures, need the sort of mystique, intrigue, and excitement that meeting in a low-expectation, totally non-sexual environment provides. It needs to feel organic and not contrived. It's often been said that your woman should feel that things 'just magically happened' - this sort of story isn't possible when the expectations of something happening predates any of your game or even your first conversation.

The other point here is that if more platforms start to tilt this way, it may start giving these corporations the excuse to start punishing people who don't adopt the new platform to run their game (i.e. messaging chicks on Facebook proper instead of FB Dating) under the excuse that it's not allowed, because "we have a whole app just for this purpose - use that" and could even be considered harassment.

This is not entirely unlike what's been going on in the real world. Roosh's article 'Patricia's Smartphone' is even more relevant today than when it was written in 2013, so bars and clubs in the USA are not encouraging places to meet women of quality. White knight bartenders and bouncers are kicking out men for approaching women. Mall cops are stopping men running simple day game. Also, I know shitting where you eat is generally unwise, but the workplace did represent where around 20% of relationships started for a while. That number is still around 10-15% but falling sharply and is no longer a feasible option with H.R. around the corner, just waiting to fire men the minute their eyes so much as glance at the hot young intern (who is dressed for male attention).

So, if you have more and more dating-centric, sexually-stigmatized options, while simultaneously having less and less organic options where it's acceptable to look for a partner... it really does not bode well for the future of relationships.

Social Circle game and friends-of-friends are still the gold standard here, but I could see it being very difficult in the current and future world for someone who is very introverted, keeps a small circle without a ton of options, or someone who moves to an entirely new area for a job. The answer would still be for them to break out of their comfort zone, network, and build a circle - but the reality is that few men will do this. Instead, they'll settle for the ease of the swipe factory, which, at best, will leave them settling for a lower value girl, and at worst, leave them miserable.

Who I am is just the habit of what I always was, and who I'll be is the result

My thoughts exactly. My Tinder pics are curated to perfection.
My facebook is a grab bag of random pics of me.

Grant me serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference

^^^^^^

1988: You meet a girl at the mall and attract her with your smart-ass sarcasm and over-the-top comments about life. She walks away laughing.

2008: You meet a girl on Facebook and get humiliated when she puts your smart-ass comments "on blast" and the whole world sees them out-of-context.
Or the Facebook Monitors see what you said and you get banned. You walk away crying...and possibly unemployed.

Meeting women was not meant to be done in the public sphere, as if it was a speech or a football game. There is an element of privacy you need in which to build intimacy. It's one thing to date online using a made-up moniker, but in the #metoo era, I see dating online under your real name as a recipe for disaster for men.

ANY sarcasm or off-color comment could get you cast out of polite society (and subsequently been seen by your grandmother). That means all messages from men to women will have to have a milquetoast "you go girl!" tone. Yeah, that'll work.

I don't know a single attractive woman who met her boyfriend through a dating app, zero. I know a lot of unattractive women who did though. Including a fat white girl who only dates black guys. The jokes write themselves.

As an aside, if any aspiring Ted whatever his name is (unabomber) wants to go do that to all major social media sites, he has my approval. Hate the damn things.

There will be at least a rush of fresh opportunities for guys like me that missed the Tinder boat.

I am a nightgame guy but dating online is here to stay and its either adapt or miss out.

I'm staying tuned.

I agree - it will be used by older men and women, so even for us here mostly irrelevant. There are a few men who use strategic Facebook game - Instagram-like pictures with some hot girls, to attract girls, but I doubt that it will work well.

In addition you will see - as well as your friends and family who you have hooked up with - I can imagine that this will show among the befriended and then de-friended list.

The Facebook algorithms are a disaster that way.

Exactly. Gotta get in before the curve.

It could be smart to have two apps - tinder for sex and facebook app for dating etc.

It will be good for people to have a choice if they just want sex or if they want to get to know people.

It launched in Colombia today. I'll be in Colombia for a few months starting in November. Anyone in Columbia can confirm if it works there based on phone GPS? If so can probably spoof it and see how it works.

So the worst nightmare of Zuckerberg is happening right now.

An attack on Facebook discovered earlier this week exposed information on nearly 50 million of the social network's users, the company announced Friday.

Yet one more reason to eschew online dating.

"The attackers exploited a feature called "View as" that lets users see their Facebook page the way someone else would. They could then potentially use it to take over the accounts and use them exactly as if they were the account holders.

Facebook said it does not know who the attackers were or where they were based. It also said it has already fixed the issue and informed the FBI and other law enforcement. It has also informed the Irish Data Protection Authority about the breach, a step required by Europe's GDPR regulations."

Just a review on the app. I have used it here in the Philippines. Most of the women on the app are leftovers, washed up women, or single moms. Maybe over time as it becomes more popular then some quality women may appear.

The app itself is a great idea and is user friendly. Plus the app is built into Facebook so no need to download another app.
Its similar to Tinder but the only difference is instead of swiping left and right you have two icons at the bottom
*I had to take a pic with my other phone because FB doesn't let you screenshot the app*

No Thanks or Like

When you like someone they are notified, just like a regular notification. When that happens they can message you and also like you back. You can also message them before liking them.

For those worried about privacy. Your dating profile is not attached to your FB profile.
The dating app only takes info from your profile to the app. You can change this information at anytime. The only thing you cant change is your location and age. It works just like Tinder. Also the profile is not shown to anyone on your friends list. You can also extend it to not be shown to friends of friends.

It also has a secret crush button that you can send to someone on your friends list. I haven't tried it yet, but you can look up how it works.

In all great app, its free, but the quality of women(in the Philippines) on the app not so great.

Edit on this part: It can be shown to friends of friends on the app. The button just eliminates you from being suggested friends of friends.
