Do you believe that couples who overshare about their relationship on social media are really the most unhappy and likely to separate/divorce?

[annabananna]

Yes

No

[PizzaDaddyo]

Wow I never thought of this!


*My answer about why I think yes explained below.
My view on social media…
I try my best to stay far from social media because it’s toxic for me. Ironically, here I am. Lol I only have Gag, Reddit, and Snapchat for my close ones…hahah Pokémon Go, lmao. I actually use for real. I deleted my Facebook ages ago, never tweeted and I had Instagram when they first started it but left super early on due to the hype I didn’t care too much about lol like before insta had stories. I was so skeptical upon deleting my Facebook in 2013 because I was fresh out of High School and everyone I knew had it. It was so long ago, I don’t know who didn’t have a Facebook. It erks me how even Tik Tok is a thing and how people today are to easily glued to tik tok after tik Tok after tic tok. You hear the madness from our peers! It used to be the tik tokers doing corny trendy dance moves that annoyed me a lot as they still kinda do but just as bad is me hearing people on it has it evolved and more people around me have it. I don’t even like the fact that the only social media platforms that I use, which is Snapchat and YouTube have Tik Tok videos on it. Smh, Snapchat is not the same how it used to be either. I’m so done with scrolling down seeing somebody that isn’t even really famous yet who pretends that they are, and shows their lavish life or profession, and they just talk about how the day goes. Stop. I don’t need to do that. You’re not that interesting. People make pointless videos too “is liver, king natty, or not?” fuck that! Nobody’s natty! Yet why does it matter for you anyways what he puts in his body? That’s him not you worry about yourself! Maybe it’s just me and I get annoyed very easily, but I get so irritated when I hear random bullshit videos from afar and the sad reality is I believe it’s ruining peoples attention span tremendously because the creators of these platforms know people will have short attention span’s already, and they use that to their advantage to promote and have people post very short videos and content plus, ads the dictate the world. I bet the CEO of TikTok is safe to say he knows how the app works and definitely spent a good amount of time on the app but, until there’s a lawsuit or something he’s not wasting his day watching tick-tock‘s, he’s probably actually watching all the other stocks, Tik Tok up and down instead of his own shit! Also, we all know that TikTok uses and “algorithm?“ and that makes me question. Why would someone want to be on a platform where AI is telling you what to watch? That’s the same way how google heys specific custom ads to come your way… This to me isn’t cool. They learn about you without you realizing. And, shouldn’t we not be on our phones too much? I remember back in the day I was told not to watch TV for too long, even though we always would. How is being on your phone different from watching TV? In fact it’s worse and easier, more accessible anywhere, anytime 24 seven. We have a computer, then TV, then… phone in our pockets, doesn’t that sound unbelievable. If there was a fire or like a situation, like domestic violence happen sadly today, if someone would post it before calling 911. Cold world. And how I think about it is that it is too good to be true. It is true that we have it and unfortunately how I feel. It’s too good. I understand it’s not going away and have to accept the world we live in has it.

Kinda relevant, but not entirely.. Megan trainer’s tick-tock’s on her dancing/ lip syncing to that “mother, mother song” … hands-down…the worst direction social media is heading. She’s like super famous celebrity status and that video is TRASH like I know she’s having fun lol or pretending to have fun whatev.. She should’ve kept that video for herself and I will say I had a great laugh at the YouTube comments on that short! Ahhh, we all got dumber… if you didn’t see it you should check out a few of the comments and read them before you see the madness. It would make it 10 times better and I wish I did that before watching. I’m over watching it a few times and laughing at her so hard though it’s so bad.

*Thoughts on in this Question…
Okay not that this is difficult for me to process but, this is just one of many potential harms or disasters we all could have predicted. How I personally have looked at social media is that we all now have a weird if not lobe, space in our brains that reflects on social media. How is this healthy? And the reality is you do have to think about your actions before you post them because it may affect your life. I also know that everybody has their own view on how they interpret their selves on the media. Yes, I understand. A great amount of people are mostly themselves. Social media gives you the opportunity be more or less of yourself. And now, whether or not you care about how you view yourself on the media, it doesn’t matter. You still gotta worry about what you say out loud even if you don’t mean it. Lol celebrities probably apologize all the time. You gotta be careful of what content your subscribing because anything may be posted making it easy to believe anybody without checking, real sources.


Now specifically ‘oversharing’ to me is as good or equal to ‘overcaring’. Lol see what I did there? 🙃

No joke. I know it may sound shallow but being single, I’d love to find a girl who doesn’t care about social media like that. At this point, for me that would be a huge turn off if media and posting things is a part of the relationship like majorly. I’m very practical and not super against taking pics of important events like vacations, birthdays, sports, celebrations. But I’m not sharing everything I keep most pic to myself. I find more it more valuable to have special unposted content for my eyes only. Because I know myself and how I view socials I know I don’t care about it like that towards where if couldn’t continue dating someone who is extremely glued and cares about social media. If social media is a major part of your life how could I relate? And no! I don’t want to be on your post! That’s what I’m trying to avoid!! I do understand that it’s inevitable to find someone who doesn’t have the medias. I will take it with a grain of salt how much input and how much effort and focus my next potential partner has on them because bottom line I don’t give a fuck about what “they”, think and if she does care more than average, then I will definitely have to let her know how I feel simply uncomfortable with social media. I don’t mind if she’s on there or not but if it’s affecting me or if it’s overkill, I would really start to think that she cares more about how people look at her then about me or us.

So oversharing could lead to overthinking. Lol also over caring about what people think about not only you but you and your partner or your partner which I believe shouldn’t be necessary. Couple dances are cringy for me to watch. I would not want to be in one ever and, look, I don’t gotta be the manliest man in the room lol that’s not my endgame but, I think it’s kind of girly to do trendy dances. I don’t do girly shit, not now not never. Respect it. I will mention that I’m a shitty dancer so it’s not like I can like pop and lock like smooth butter and if I could, I wouldn’t mind it as much but I have no confidence in my dancing and you’re better off not watching me haha. anyway so definitely no heat on the people who can actually dance, but if you’re an average Joe Schmoe or average Jolina Schmolina, put your phone down!

[sawno]

I am not sure if its relatable because I am so far from it, it can just be the couple really enjoys social media and is just very much into that behavior pattern.

If they do it just to fake happiness and make others jealous though then yeah no chance since it hints that they have to compensate for something. If they were happy they would not need to make anyone else jealous.

[Yannishka]

That chance is there! Some people just love to share. Those people also exist. The pictures I'm in don't have a forced smile. I'm just very relaxed most of the time. Not unhappy.

[itsalyssaagain]

Yes. My parents have been together since they were 18/21. Got married in their 30s. Basically a long time. They haven’t even added each other on Facebook lol.

[Finchie40]

No , it’s the ones that share pictures without their partner in any of the pictures with them , that are usually up to no good. Basically they plan a trip together and the one partner isn’t in any of the pictures they post , that’s a sign the relationship is coming to an end Just happened to a buddy of mine , his wife excluded him from all their pictures together to find out she was screwing someone else

[BoopBoopBeep]

Well the way you phrased the question, "OVERshare", would necessarily mean at least one party of that relationship thinks you are overstepping a boundary. That is a betrayal of trust and tends to lead to divorce, yes. If you mean "what if this couple shares more than I want them to?" then no correlation. Your opinion isn't important to them, certainly not to the level of precipitating divorce.

[nawtee_me]

I said yes because it does kind of make sense. Trying to put on a good front for everyone else. Most people who have a good relationship don’t flaunt it. To them it is just normal.

[nawtee_me]

So I have to ask, how is yours? How is the baby?

[annabananna]

We are all doing well thanks:) baby needs to learn to walk soon because he is getting too big to carry!

[red324]

I don't know you see all these youtube couples that makes these videos of their relationship on a daily basis almost.

[red324]

They make a killing doing that too.

[annabananna]

Those people may do it for the money

[red324]

Yep ever notice hoe they all have these expensive cars and houses?

[glennos89]

I believe that its a waste of time oversharing your whole relationship on social media. Why dont they use that time to interact together instead of with the rest of the world?🤔

[nawtee_me]

Because their relationship is already so perfect…. Don’t you see me over sharing it….

[asphaltrhymes]

I voted yes. Asked me when I was in earlier 20s I surely would have thought the opposite. And I've never been in a relationship yet lol. 😜

[asphaltrhymes]

*ask

[Friendlybro79]

I don't try to assume things like this. You never know. I've met some couples that look happy together and are, some that look happy but aren't etc. You never know.

[shades777]

I think it shows their character, just like someone who flexes with anything.


Its ok to be proud and share your accomplishments with friends family or fans. Thats healthy to a point.


Personally I keep my love life to myself

[Nikki1989]

No, it is when they stop sharing, you can suspect something is wrong.

[BCRanger10]

Possibly, but not necessarily. They could just be social media savvy.

[DizzyDesii]

I just dont trust what people post most of the time

[Xia1994]

Wow what a question 😭

[HawkPerception]

Yeah, they take all that time to glamorize their life to others. Those kinds of relationships are usually pretty fake. They tend to not live in the moment or focus on anything more than skin deep.

[Jazzy54]

Maybe. I personally believe that some things need to stay private.

[Bklynbadboy12]

No I definitely don't agree that suggests what some people do for some couples that. 's what works for them just like not sharing any information works for other couples

[TheSpaceGnome]

I don't see the point of a taken person even having social media.

[Rockstarrrrr]

Based on what I've seen... Oh yeah totally lol

[PointTaken]

Yep. Most of the time. It's usually only one side of the couple that shares everything too.

[asphaltrhymes]

Mmm, do you reckon they'd get the most share out of the divorce or push hardest with the best lawyer they can to get the biggest share lol assuming no pre-nup? Lol I just imagine to myself lol 😆😆😂

[asphaltrhymes]

Or am I just over-extending your answer too broadly lol. But yeah it sure makes me wonder what sort of divorce that would turn out to be, especially if only one was the over-sharer in the relationship ^⁠_⁠^ lol glad I'm always single

[PointTaken]

@asphaltrhymes lol. Good point. I didn't think of the divorce side.

[FireFox001]

I think they are overcompensating something. This is a loooong discussion and I don't feel like typing it on a phone.

[Nahid1707]

Not always
Depends what is overshared you know?
Nothing personal ideally
Good question and i understand what you meant

[Christoff92]

Depending on the couple who brags on social media 😐

[mommymommymommy]

Yes, i do. Especially the ones always asking questions about it

[alearningboy]

No thats not true but the problem from social media in these days is that people put everything what theyre doing.

[Twalli]

I only share as little as I do because my girlfriend doesn't have social media so I don't feel the need to use it when she can't react to it

[KrakenAttackin]

Women who "over share" are still looking to fill an insatiable need for attention.

[Simslover92]

Not always but some definitely probably are

[Turkishgirlhere]

No i dont believe that

[Unit1]

Pretty sure it is so as a tendency.

[Jamie05rhs]

Sometimes I do wonder!

[MementoMori777]

🤔🤔🤔🤔

[roy_ricky09]

Nope...

[es20490446e]

I suspect that.

[asphaltrhymes]

At my age nowadays I sure do, maybe by my mid 20s I started to question the over-sharers as either braggers or, there's trouble in paradise/the grass ain't always greener on the other side, hahaha 😂🤣

[es20490446e]

@asphaltrhymes Hence I share nothing :P
