Facebook (FB) is helping its users get into the dating game with the new ask relationship button.
If a Facebook user is friends with a person that doesn’t have a relationship listed, they can ask the person about it with the ask relationship button. Clicking on the button allows users to send a private message to ask if that person is single and if they want to go out, reports Mashable.
