I have been hearing a lot of "drama" from my friends about how much Facebook has recently been messing up their relationship.
Here is what happened: One of my close friends got into a fight with her boyfriend because he was writting on a girl's facebook picture. Now this was not just any "hey cool picture" it was more about what he had done in the past with this person. Not like "we had a great relationship" more along the lines of sexual stuff they had done in the past. Due to this facebook comment it caused a huge fight between my close friend and her boyfriend which led to them "breaking up" (when i say "breaking up") I mean breaking up for about two hours. During this two hour period my close friend changed her Facebook relationship status from "in a relationship" to "single." This then caused a BIGGER problem between the couple becuase her boyfriend (ex-boyfriend for five mintues) was extremely upset that she would make it "Facebook offical" (Becuase apperiently if you make it Facebook offical when you break up then that means you are REALLY BROKEN UP)
This made me start thinking, 1) Should you be Facebook friends with your siginificant other? and 2) Does Facebook affect your realtionship?
My answer for these two questions are 1) I think you should be Facebook friends with your siginificant other becuase well of course you will probably stalk their facebook but also you should learn how to trust your girlfriend/boyfriend/husband or wife. However, I think each relationship maybe should talk about what they might get upset about if they see (such as comments on other girls facebook pictures talking about sexual activites they have had in the past with them) I think this may help the relationship. Also I do believe Facebook effects your relationship..a lot. But that will be a different Blog =]
I agree. You are going to stalk their FB anyway haha I mean a lot of bf/gf have their significant other's password. THAT I feel can cause a lot of problems, but also esures that htere is really trust... assuming the girlfriend didnt steal it *cough cough* lol
ReplyDeleteummm....guilty...guilty I am. haha but obviously i'm not the only one ;)
ReplyDeleteInteresting blog !!!!!!! yeah. I agree with you. Facebook can affect the relationships between us. I also had an experience about my friend who broke up with her boyfriend because of showing their relationship on Facebook. One girl added her as friend and she said " your boyfriend is also my boyfriend " and she uploaded some pictures of her boyfriend and her, the girl who added my friend as friend, to show her, my friend. However, it is not true. That girl only loves her boyfriend and he doesn't love her. She made the pictures by using photoshop. So I feel it is terrible and I think we should not show our relationship on Facebook. I think it have no advantages between our relationships.
