This article discusses the insecurities that social media can cause within relationships. It features various people who wrote in with their stories concerning how social media caused their relationships to fail.

Social media makes it incredibly easy for people to connect. This allows people to start affairs or cheating via these websites. Simply refraining from mentioning each other in posts or anything that would set off any red flags allows people to keep these secrets locked away from their significant other. These websites typically have some sort of messaging system as well as an app. This allows communication to be kept strictly to these websites being utilized.

Social media also allows people to more easily find people to have an affair with without having the hassle of actually going out and finding someone in person. This opens doors for multiple partners that are all kept secret from each other. This can have a terrible effect on the people involved who think that they're in an exclusive relationship.

Social media can be very good for relationships, but people need to learn to use it responsibly.
