Facebook functionality? - Matt Archer - 02-21-2014 08:06 PM

Essentially two very good friends of mine had a bit of a falling out recently (bad break up) and are currently not speaking to to one another, however they're both still speaking to me through texts, phone calls and Facebook and whatnot.

My question is - since when 1 sees me talking to the other on Facebook they get in a mood and since they're both good friends of mine I don't want to stop talking to one in favour of the other, so I was just wondering; is there a way I can make it on Facebook so everything to do with one of them (posts, likes, comments, tags, whatever) is invisible to the other and vice versa?

Much obliged.

Yes there's a way. But the problem is that it will work only for posts. Before posting look down to right side there will be a button for audience somewhat like group of friends. Choose custom in that. Now select group of people . You can try if it works for comments and likes.
Good luck

You can put them on your restricted list for posts and pictures, however, that really won't solve your problem. I'm sure there are friends of friends who are seeing these posts and someone will be bound to tell one of the ex-couple that you are still communicating with them.

You need to sit down with them individually and explain that while you realize they are broken up, you can't be put in the middle. Tell them that you do not want to end the friendship with either because you like them both, but YOU are not the one either of them broke up with.

If they can't understand this and one or both decides to end their friendship with you, then that should show you how little YOUR friendship meant to THEM.
