The key to a successful relationship is NOT TO SHARE EVERYTHING on social networks, w/ friends or etc. Keep things private and I’ll tell you why. As soon as you allow your issues with your partner to be everyone’s business then it becomes everyone’s business. Left and right you are going to get advice or spreading your issues around. It’s ok if you choose to share with one person but even with that you have to be careful. Some people are spiteful and might try to ruin your relationship on purpose. You always have to be on your p’s and q’s even when you are in a relationship. You don’t want to ever stop trying because the moment you do, there will be someone else ready to take your spot.
You will be surprised at how many people you call your friends that are watching your every move. Even exs asking friends how you and your partner are doing on the low inquiring about your relationship status. The only people that matter in your relationship is you and your boo. That’s why if you guys are breaking up on Facebook every other week, then all lovey dovey in a statuses after, honestly no one wants to see that. Next thing you know a girl or guy is writing all over their page or liking all their pictures and you get mad. Why get mad when yall both have single on your page, so for this week he/she can do what they want…im just saying.
Even if you see someone calling your partner pet names, just ASK QUESTIONS! You don’t want to assume anything crazy and go off when it’s not that serious. But you do want to check it because we all know that people are quick to get you in trouble, even when you are on your best behavior.
If you want to vent, vent in a diary, to yourself or something lol. I mean you can’t get mad if you feel that behind closed doors you guys are in a relationship but on social networks you guys aren’t. Even by putting ‘in a relationship’ on Facebook doesn’t make your relationship real. It’s sad to say that a lot of people base their relationships on social networks. When back then when our parents were growing up if you were in love everyone just knew by word of mouth. I feel back then love, relationships and friendships meant more to people. Now people just want that image of perfection when we all know nothing is perfect. Social Networks give people a chance to hide behind a false facade.
Relationships aren’t easy but putting all your business on websites just make it harder for you to work through your problems. I say keep your business between you and your boo because you two know each other better than anyone else. Like they say, everyone has an opinion but you choose what’s best for you.
