When you take a break from a person, the person doesn’t get to know about it. After enabling this feature for someone, you will not be able to see their posts on your Feed and vice versa. You will be untagged from an individual’s post and if one has posted anything on each other’s timeline, it will be deleted. Here is how to use it.
