:Do you believe social media can ruin a relationship?::
“I don’t believe social media ruins relationships .Dishonesty and sneakiness does โฃ “~Unknown
*just my personal opinion because even though this isn’t “reality” how you carry yourself on here reflects how you do in real life . Meaning if you don’t respect your partner in the streets than social media is just another outlet for your habits.
People just need somebody or something to blame for their issuesโผ๏ธ but truth be told if social media didn’t exist you not only would still be getting cheated on but would also not have found out as fast โผ๏ธ๐๐๐ฏ so I guess it’s a catch 22 ๐๐
So don’t be fooled “Unplugging” doesn’t guarantee anything โผ๏ธ and if your cheating partner Is pressuring you to do so she or he is only trying to cover his or her tracks . If your relationship is transparent then it shouldn’t matter how many sites the both of you are on .
BUT what I do believe is social media can at times isolate you from reality as an individual . Meaning this may become addictive and cut into your productive time . Which is a valid reason to detox from time to time . Communication is key in all aspects of life especially relationships . Therefore getting back into the basics can really spark things up .
Meaning :
๐Less texting and more talking
๐No more subliminal memes and actually speaking what’s really heavy on your heart
๐less sharing and more keeping those special moments “special”
๐instead of trying to convince the world how much you love your partner . Dedicate that time and energy to remind him or her .
๐log off and get lost with each other
๐update each other about your day instead of your status
๐less exposure and more mystery
๐when you’re “bored ” try somethings new together versus scrolling your timelines
And the list can go on and on โฃ I mean I’m not an expert (clearly ๐๐๐) but one thing I am for sure is super observant . And what I’ve learned is that most long-term married couples are too consumed with each other and their lives to really get lost in the webs of social media . Yes they have accounts but that’s not their life nor is it a Heavy habit unless it’s business related .
I don’t know about you but I’ll trade “likes” for Love any day โฃ๐ and on that note I’m done before I start rambling ๐๐๐
So now that you know my opinion of this question I would love to hear if you agree with me or not . ๐ค ๐ญ

you are absolutely right……..social media is a medium to escape, relax, be entertained or informed……….the moment you loose track of the line between actual and virtual…….stop and evaluate. ๐

Hi Meras Meraki,
I know Joel and Aquileana. Thank you for coming by my blog and liking my post about my blog party.
In response to what you wrote, social media can definitely hurt a relationship. It is hard to balance a relationship and blogging which involves social media, I know. However, it is necessary. I’ve written about social media and the need for balance in blogging often.
Nice to meet you.
Janice

I love this post. Social Media cannot destroy a solid relationship but it can break up a toxic relationship easily, which can be good,

Thank you and I totally agree ! Being blind to your reality can prolong the toxic situation . The harsh reality is some people need the truth to slap them in the face a million times for the light switch to come on . And social media expedites the process .

It sure does! I had an ex that wouldn’t add me on his Social media accounts. At first I didn’t care, but eventually felt he was not trustworthy.

Good discernment doll !! Locking you out their pages and having secret accounts is just as suspect as someone always having their phone muted , off , or flipped face down Everytime you are together !! Smh
