Facebook the ultimate relationship killer?

    I have been reading more often that Facebook is being used alot more commonly in divorce claims, over the weekend I personally seen a couple fall out over paranio on facebook, the dreaded question of 'how many friends on you facebook list have you slept with' , ' who do you be sending private messages to' , ' why do have __________ blocked'
    I have also over time seen people I know both male and female use Facebook as a one night stand little black book so to say.
    Has facebook developed to the stage where you cant have a facebook page and relationship?

    I would have thought that cheating is a bigger relationship killer!

    For once ya cant blame Facebook, its all down to peoples insecurity if you ask me.

    I have a couple of ex's that im friends with on FB but if a new girlfriend started questioning me on them I'd confront her about her paranoia and insecurity just becasue your " friends " on Fb doesnt mean your gong to run away in the middle of the night with an ex or a friend on FB.

    wow typing really is not my thing
    I agree 100% insecurity is a major problem but to the extent of divorces being based around a social network?

    Snippit (below ) I got from an article titled ' Fcuk Of Facebook '
    Paranoia ?

    why hasn’t she written me back? perhaps she’s not online… but she is, because she commened on this other guys status just now… so she probably doesn’t want to talk to me… could it have been something I said? It must have been something I said… or perhaps she’s found out something about me that she doesn’t like… what could that be… perhaps she’s found out…”
    Etc etc etc etc. And it goes on and on and on.
    It’s not healthy
    .

    ^ :D

    hang on a sec, having a relationship with someone on FB is a relationship killer? I would have thought spending all them hours online would do more damage to a relationship

    logged in just for this.


    My excessive abuse of alcohol for the past month or two, has lead to my associating meself with, some pretty undesirable ladies. Now I am plagued with friend requests and friends from people I really dont want to know or see pictures of.

    Facebook is the ultimate ego killer, I used to be able to pretend to myself that I was boxing above my weight, through the use of beer goggles and general bad eyesight but now i am constantly reminded of the shame of my alcohol related 'conquests'. I think facebook will eventually be the downfall of society and humanity as a whole.. the bastard.

    I think its time to ditch facebook and revert back to using two different mobile phones and two different identities.




    may take it easy on the grog too...

    Monogamy is the ultimate relationship killer.





    Or at least that's what the ex-wife said in our divorce papers.

    Is it time to replace the "thumbs up" button with a "like" button?

    not facebook but giving someone TMI about your private life/past w/e which people can do through facebook.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone

    and email....

    and telephones.....

    and letters....

    and pigeons....

    and smoke signals....

    and being social creatures....

    is why I no longer have a fb acount. I'm single but people are more inclined to go looking for you on fb than ask for your fone number and its just a really bad way to start a relationship. I had a "friend" on there who constantly interfered when she realised I was dating an old friend of hers, it's just ridiculous. Needless to say they both got the boot.

    edit;same girl asked me to add her bf when she started going out with him so I could watch "the drama unfold"..fcuking nutball
