A lot of people have turned the social media to a dumping ground of every issue. Whether social media is worthy or not. And the in-thing now is people coming on social media to share their marital problems.
We hear cases of broken marriages today, not because of the main issue but due to the havoc social media have done to the home. The way social media users will comment on such issues is one of the things that causes major breakdown of the home leading to divorce.
Private matters must be made private while public ones should be made public and so, it is important to know which one to share on the social media and the one you must not share.
Listed below are reasons why you must not post your marriage problems on social media
Most people are not truly interested in how happy you are
Believe me, if I say Instagram is not meant for you to post all the details of how happy you are in your marriage. People are not really interested and you will gain nothing from it. If you are truly happy in your marriage, it is not social media pictures that will be the judge but your outlook. True happiness lies in being together with your spouse
Displaying your marriage issue on social media will come back to haunt you
Whether good or bad, keep your marriage relationship off social media. Especially the bad, it will come back to destroy you because people will help you escalate it and you will be surprised at what level it will get to
It makes you vulnerable to abusers
That is the truth, you may think they are out to help you but reality is they just want to use your present situation to prey on you. If care is not taken you will fall for such abusers acting like a good friend you can rely on
The most important thing is your real life
Social media is not meant for display; you can do well by connecting with your friends and be real in dealing with people. Just live your life
It will affect your children negatively
Think about the children that the marriage has produced. Washing your dirty linen in public will affect them and it could badly destroy their esteem
It shows you are not mature
A mature person will never post his/her marital challenge on social media. Remember you were not joined as husband and wife on social media
People are waiting to hear and see the bad about your marriage
Don’t think everybody hailing you is truly on your side, they are waiting to hear the bad side and you should know some human beings can be negative.
Social Media can play a negative role in your marriage
This is one thing you should think of why you must not post your marriage problems on social media. You will definitely get people to sympathize with you but social media can also contribute negatively to your situation
It is not medically healthy
Researchers have shown that on the average, happy couples are those who know how to keep their private lives out of the prying eyes of the general public and so they tend to live longer and have a blissful marriage than people that display everything on social media
Remember social media will not add any significant thing to you or your marriage safe the fake comment people will give. What will matter at the end is your real life, experience, and value you place on your home and not the sheer social media popularity. Be wise!
