How has sites such as facebook and myspace affect your relationship with your s/o or maybe even just friends? Did it bring you closer together? Did it cause more drama?

Share your stories ^.^.

Myspace caused me nothing but drama.

"Why am I not on your top 8???"
"Why is so and so higher than me on your top??"

and so on.

[Apple.Mint]

um..with this current one..im not sure but i remmeber he refused to change his status on facebook
and i was really hurt by that..so we argue over that, then i just gave up and hide my status too
now suddenly he changed his but i dont care anymore so im leaving mine as single hahah
then like through facebook
i see pictures of him and this pinkberry that asked him to be her escort [loong story] and yeah
it pissed me off and i do get sad and end up saying stuff to him
so i guess facebook has done nothing
lol!

my past ones..facebook/myspace done nothing too hahaha

[thesisoflove]

i dont even bother stalking his **** on facebook or whatever,

[moot11]

Drama, for sure.


"Who are these women telling you that they love you, why is that girl giving you her phone number on FB wall," etc.

I took down my facebook wall, it was causing too many issues. Looking back, it was her own insecurities, but meh.

[hishari]

Facebook and myspace have brought me nothing but drama.

During Freshman year of high school, I changed my status to "Swinger" on myspace since everyone else was, and my ex completely blew up and accused me of cheating on him

[LyX]

^ lol

@Apple.Mint: my bf wanted to change his status (from nothing) to in relationship with me too, but i refused because i didnt want everybody to know (especially if we broke up) but he was fine with that, i only changed it on valentinesday for one day

i look at my bf's wall and read all his posts, which are not very interesting since he doesnt use facebook that much anyway (besides for playing games haha) and i spam him with funny/mean-ish posts haha but he said he doesnt mind (i hope thats true )

[emceej]

myspace started a lot of drama shizz .____.
i won't even go in depth.
but there are few cases where i re-connected with old friends there.
so it's all good.

[Cγиσsυяε`]

Oh my gosh WAY TOO MUCH DRAMA. Just don't do it. Nothing more to say. Especially since my cousins add me on social networks and see that I have a boyfriend. When they see that, my cousin(Ex gang member) threatens to beat him up if i don't break up and my other cousin keeps offering to buy me birth control pills and spreads rumors to the whole entire family. Then my uncles said that he saw us at the market and WE NEVER WENT TO THE MARKET TOGETHER. All of the awkwardness with my family rooted from facebook and myspace. I can't even delete my profiles or else they'll think I deleted them as friends and get offended. And sometimes when I talk to a few people, there comes jealousy issues in my relationship.

It's best to just keep your pictures and info to a minimum.
I see wayy to many people post their pictures up and cam rainbow like a dooschebag.

[MNLV27]

There hasn't been any troubles or whatever with my s/o because he doesn't like having a facebook and myspace, except one time when he saw that i didn't change my status on myspace to in a relationship, he made a fuss over that, so I changed it. I use to put a lot of pictures up but now I private every album, I like to keep things private now, and myspace has helped me get in contact with old friends from elementary, middle and high school.

[plegend2007]

Facebook is the devil!

Myspace is for pedos!

I hate both, period!

Too long of a story for me to get into it right now. Just bad......

[ShadowMax76]

it's difficult.. especially if you're a type of person that has many 'sides'.. to try and uphold as one thing.

_ i've always tried my best to stay away from 'em. x_x' it's like a laser in the hands of toddlers.. _ there's always an evil one, the one that thinks it's food, another does nothing with it, and the one that shows it off it's fanciness and moves on to other toys..

_ personal drama? aha.. what i've learned was that "internet is for fun. if you have an issue to talk about, do it in person." T _ T' i wasn't exactly bringing anything up.. directly. it, unfortunately, moved into a serious topic. i was practically lecturing on someone's page. x-x' i regret it. half because i realized it [a lil late], then she made me feel like hell for it.. thing of the past..thankfully.

[hippiehop]

In my current and most recent relationships, it hasn't been a problem. Facebook hasn't been a big part of our relationship, it's a way for us to keep in touch with our friends, but we don't use it to communicate with one another. However if something suspicious comes up, I'd probably just ask him about it.

I had problems with an ex when xanga was still popular, 'cause he didn't like my male friends... I feel old for saying 'xanga' hahaha...

If the relationship is already bad (i.e. the people are distrustful, insecure, etc.) it'll make things worse. If the relationship is solid it won't make any difference.

Agree^ It shouldn't cause problems, unless there are already problems.

It's only a problem when one person is like, really insecure and stalks their s/o's page and takes things out of context and worries unnecessarily. Like seeing a wall post from some other guy that could possibly be flirty or something, or seeing your s/o in a photo with someone else, looking quite close. Probably perfectly innocent but if you're paranoid enough to be stalking all their wall posts and all their photos then you're not likely to see it that way are you? xD

On the other hand, the websites can give you hints that your partner is up to something, and actually help you to catch them and then you can ditch their ass lol. My fiancé's best friend's gf went to uni and was suddenly posting loads of pictures with this other guy, and said guy was posting a lot of flirty comments on her pictures. Obviously it turned out that she was cheating and they split up~ soo yeah. :s

[小甜密]

Lol funny you mention, no drama has erupt from social networking sites. But there's these comments from girls on his myspace that sometimes make me question if they check his status first. I always laugh when one try to flirt with him.

[Gumball]

Haha Loving some of your answers guys! keep it up.

[ms. rachellica]

for me, facebook doesn't really affect any of my relationships with my friends. some of my closest friends i'm not even friends with on facebook. it's jus a thing to go on wen we're bored.

[seryberry]

when i 1st had myspace (04) it brought drama. i only made it to find out who the chick was my ex had cheated on me with and ofcourse it was all myspace drama! hahahah

i still have it and my current bf doesnt care, he knows i get messages here and there from weirdos. FB is all good for me, as far as i know microsoft bought it out or something (im a recep here) so everybody at MS has FB hahah
