“In a civil union” now a relationship status option on Facebook

You can now choose Civil Union as your Facebook relationship status
Facebook has updated its list of options for displaying a user’s relationship status.

You can now choose “In a civil union” or “In a domestic partnership” from a list which previously consisted of single, in a relationship, engaged, married, it’s complicated, in an open relationship, widowed, separated and divorced. (And, of course, you can choose not to display a relationship status at all.)

The options appeared from yesterday for users in the UK, as well as in North America, Australia and France.

To display your relationship status on Facebook:

  • go to your profile page
  • click on “Edit Profile” in the top right-hand corner of the page
  • click on “Featured People” in the left-hand column
  • choose a relationship status from the dropdown menu, just under your name.

    • I “like” this!
