Social Media: Does It Help or Hurt? How do you feel about social media when it comes to relationships? Good? Bad? It can be a little of both at times, but you have the power to make it a cool experience with your lover instead of a jealous one. #ConsciousCoupling is being aware of the way eac of you behaves in the relationship. Post Only Positive Things How many times have you heard people say "Oh no. I don't get on Facebook...people are too nosy." Well, I got news for you: you can't blame a social media platform for the things that you regret posting after the fact. If you don't want your business out there, then it's simple...don't post every darn thing that happens in your relationship! This is what will break the two of you up! Be conscious and act in a #ConsciousCoupling way. Once you put something online, I think we all know that if it's not deleted quickly, it's repeated quickly. So, if you have an argument with your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, or wife, please, for God's Sake, keep it to yourselves! All of your Facebook friends do not have to know that you left some panties soaking in the sink, or that he clips his toenails in the living room. Gossip is a relationship destroyer, and on social media sites this is multiplied by 100. Share a Page with Your Partner If it seems like you have a partner that is going to be on social media regardless of how you feel about it, then maybe you can make a sweet and romantic thing out of it. Even if you aren't crazy about Facebook, it can be an opportunity for you to really do something that your significant other will appreciate - share their page with them. On everyone's Facebook page they have a cover photo. If you are a couple that has been together for a while, live together, have kids and a family, then there is no reason that you should have a solo page all to yourself. Put a beautiful family photo or a romantic picture of the two of you as your cover photo. That way anyone that visits that page will know that they are in a serious relationship, and you won't worry so much when your spouse is online and you can't see the computer screen. Act in a #ConsciousCoupling way! |
