Does Social Media Help or Hurt Relationships
The article I found was on how social media hurts relationships and I found this article interesting because the authors points to me are pretty spot on. Social media in relationships is just a means to more often than not destroy the trust between couples that has been built up in a relationship. Today significant others can take likes and posts on Facebook along with tweeting and favoriting on Twitter can be taken as flirting or cheating. These social media outlets make it easy to keep an eye on your partner but when one looks at their partners past they may not like what they find. So if you're in a relationship keep your significant other in mind when you're posting tweets or Facebook status's so there wont be a miscommunication and cause trouble in your once solid relationship.

I posted my first article on how social media can ruin your personal relationships as well. I like how you said to keep your postings respectful, essentially, so you aren't running into any problems with your significant other. This is a great point because I think some people use social media as a way to 'flirt' and when they get caught, they use it as an excuse, instead of taking responsibility for their actions. People need to be held accountable on social media, just like in real-life. People need to know when they post on social media, it doesn't go away. So keeping things respectful, kind and just keep in mind how you would feel if someone posted whatever you are about to. It can hurt no only your personal relationship, but others as well.
