How Social Media Can End Relationships by Miss Know It All

 

Miss Know It All 

Years ago, I was watching a program where the host asked a celebrity, “What was the secret to his long marriage.” His answer was simple, “Stay Off Talk Shows.”

 

Talk shows gave viewers a glimpse into the personal lives of famous and not so well-known people. And selected guests did not think twice when it came to airing their dirty laundry on TV. As a result, relationships ended because people just could not keep what goes on in their boudoir behind locked doors.

 

How times have changed when it came to the arrival of the Internet, which can be a positive platform for promoting good relationships. But there is a darker side when people become careless and lax about what they will say online without realizing the consequences by using social media to comment on their personal escapades. It is not just celebrities who broadcast their various exploits, but ordinary folks who believe it is okay to share their activities and advice to the entire world.

Remember, what you put on social media stays there endlessly. Always think before you expose the latest about your relationship because once you say something, you will never be able to take it back.
