Social media today can help and hurt relationships. Social media has quickly evolved into something very large. Everyone is connected somehow through Facebook, YouTube, twitter, Instagram and much more. Although all these social media's are very helpful and convenient for us all they have caused many problems in relationships and marriages. In article 'Social media can both help and hurt real-life relationships', Stacy Kaiser outlines the following few issues that have arisen due to social media:
Disclosure: When involved in a relationship it is always wise to be open about it and not hide anything. Posting it on you status is one way of doing so. By not doing so that causes problems and is a huge sign that the future is not promising.
Trust: Trust is the most important when in a long term relationship. Being friends on social media is something that should go without saying because that will show that you partner has nothing to hide from you.
Too much Info: During the heat of the moment it is very hard to have self-control and not vent your personal information on social media. The world could care less of your personal issue therefore rather than airing out your personal problems call a friend or family to help you deal with it.

A relationship is something very special and should never be taken for granted. It is up to the individual to take their relationship seriously and treat it with respect. Do not hide anything from you partner, talk about things and invest time in your relationship to make it that happy and healthy relationship. Make everyday a happy and enjoyable not just once and a while.
