Can people see that they are the only ones selected to view a status on facebook?

[Maureen]

I am wanting to set a status and make it so only one person can see it, but I don't want this person to know that they are the only one who can see it.

When I normally see a status you can see if it's seen by friends or public or whatever. But will this person be able to see its just for them? Or will it say custom

it will just say custom

but there's no guarantee the person will actually notice it

if you want only one person to see it, why dont you just send them a private message instead?
