I found this article online and it really captured my attention. After all, it has to do with Facebook and relationships, two of the things that we all like to talk about and are somewhat interested in. This article talks about how relationships, marriages are affected by Facebook. According to this article, relationships suffer because of having exes as friends, flirting and accepting friend requests that should have been ignored. They also mention that relationships and marriages flourish because of Facebook.
According to this article, there are 5 ground rules that married couples should follow in order to have clear communication and connection on Facebook with others without having a misunderstanding. They also listed a bunch of ways one can use Facebook, positively to enhance their marriage or in some of our cases, our relationships. These ways vary from commenting on your spouse’s posts, flirt with them, showing your other half that you trust them and keeping in check with what others are saying about your spouse.
In my case, I have to say that most of the time Facebook tends to have a negative effect on marriages or relationships. I have seen people freak out over old posts from someone that was flirting to chaos and “temporary breakups” over private messages. I’m sure a lot of you reading this are familiar with what I’m talking about. Do you think Facebook helps with marriages or relationships?? Or does it cause jealousy, problems and major break ups?
Take your pick.
