There is a good and bad side to everything.

You will agree with me that social media is one of the biggest human inventions, its impact on the world has been enormous both in good and bad ways. I am not surprised by the two side effects of social media because there is always a good and bad side to every invention, it is left us every user of that invention to determine if they will choose the good and bad side.

Social media has been involved in every area of our life, we have empowered it through our engagement which I don't see as a wrong thing except for the fact that many users of the social media are now so obsessed with it which is boosting the negative effects of it in the society today.

Relationship is one of the things social media have influenced in the world today and it is annoying for me when people choose to embrace the wrong impact of the social media in their relationship, lots of people keep making the wrong decision in their relationship because of the influence social media has on them.


Improved communication is the only positive impact that social media has brought to many relationships, we can chat, make voice calls, and video calls with our loved ones to stay in touch with one another regardless of the distance. Surprisingly, it has a more negative impact than good for many relationships, it is hard to admit it but many people have been caught on the web representing the negative effects of social media on relationships.

Pressure on relationship


Many relationships today are under pressure because of the negative impact of the social media and I do like to make it clear that none of the points I will mention is the fault of social media, the users are the real problem because they give a wrong meaning to things and also view a lot of things on the social media from the wrong perspective which is not supposed to be so.

Many people have put so much pressure on their relationships by trying to imitate the things they see on social media, it usually starts with comparing their relationship with someone else's own and the pressure comes in.

Just because they saw someone got married at their age on social media, they fill their minds with the thoughts that they must do the same, because you see someone going on vacation from time to time or doing expensive shopping with their lover from time to time doesn't warrant you to do the same. It is so unfortunate that many processes the things they see wrongly and end up making terrible decisions, they as well end up with regrets at the end of everything.

Setting false standards in relationships.


This is common and has even made people lose a faithful relationship because of the false standard they have set for themselves, many are single today for the same reasons.

The females want a wealthy husband who owns a private jet so they can go on a trip like they see people do on social media, and the males want a perfect woman as well, a lot of people do not know that most of the things some couples do are staged. If you don't know, please understand a fact that not everything you see on social media is real so setting your standards with things that aren't even real from the onset will be a very terrible thing to do.

I saw a movie a long time ago where a lady kept tabs on her friends through social media, she was checking out their lifestyle and used it to set standards for her own. She became too demanding and went on to have a five-star wedding, the husband lost his job afterward and their life was misery after the wedding.

The husband blamed the wife for pushing him too hard and they weren't happy with each other, they forced themselves to live together because they don't want the world to mock them for a broken marriage despite spending so much on the wedding party.

Absence of attention and affection.


Social media addictions have stolen time away from relationships, couples these days get too carried away with their social media engagement and forget what needs to be done in reality. It doesn't affect lovers alone, many couples have neglected even their kids, and they have deprived their kids of family bonding because of social media engagement.

Before now, couples spend more time together. Today, we spend more time with people online; we choose to satisfy our friends and followers forgetting that we are gradually building a bridge in our relationship.

A lot of people still do not understand that there is more to the things we see on the social media, I have always drawn motivation and learned lessons from the things I see on social media when it comes to relationships because you will come across hundreds of relationships story every day and choosing what to do with the things you saw is left for you.

I mentioned earlier that humans are the fault for these things and that's why social media doesn't suffer for any mistake we make by imitating the relationship examples we see or getting addicted to, we must learn to create a balance and have a life not just on social media but in reality as well.

Humans are the fault but you know some impacts are so inevitable that they cannot be removed, for instance if you take a drug it us gona affect you any way. Yes, the impact can be minimized so that we can work for.

The addiction of social media is something that is more harmful than accepting the affect of reel lives of others displayed in social media. I said so because I can made up my mind that what is shown is not the truth 100% but even then I can be addicted and it is very difficult to leave an addiction

You are right, doing away with the social media addiction comes with a lot of sacrifices many people are not ready to pay.

The bad side of social media in terms of relationships is quite high. This is a reminder for all to adjust and do things rightly.

However, Some people who found lovers via social media were lucky while many ended up in crisis.

It takes luck to start a relationship online because we don't know who is who but if it works out then it is definitely a solid one.

Indeed, there is so much more to what we see on social media. We only see the things people choose to put out. Once we realize this, we are closer to getting wiser.
Thank you for sharing this with us.

That's the mistake a lot of people are making and it is leading their relationship astray.
