Back in those days when you have to travel miles before you could even talk to you love or maybe you will have to write letter and before the letter will get to your love and replying back to the letter might even take a week or more, that's for those people who are dating from distance places. It was hard communicating with your girlfriend but the evolution of social media has made it easier.
For those who have their girlfriends staying very close to the house, their relationship was quite different from the kind of relationship we have this days. At least then, you will have to see the person you're dating and you will know if he/she genuinely loves you. Their method of lifestyle was different compare to the kind of relationship we have this days.
Before the evolution of social media, many relationship had gone through many things both good and bad but no one got to know how the other person has been coping with his relationship. Then, before you could ask a girl out on a date, you will have to see the person because their was no mean of social media but since the evolution of social media, dating has become much more easier. You can just go to facebook or any social media platform and start chatting with someone and before you know it, the two strangers who became friends just few weeks ago will start dating without even seeing each other.
This is social media for you. You don't have to write a letter that will take more than a week before you can communicate with your love, with just a message or even a call, you can talk to your girlfriend. Social media has even made it must better by adding video calls to it, you can now call your love and you both can easily see each other without having to traveling down to his place.
I have heard of many successful marriages and relationships who met their love ones on social media and they started dating and before you know it, they're married. But bear it mind that not all social media relationships work, most of those people you see on social media are just there to commit fraud. Not all social media relationships genuinely love themselves. Most of the things we see on social media this days are those who are living a fake life just because they think their friends are doing better than them.
You can see that most people if not all that brings their relationship or marriages on social media ends up becoming a crash at the end. Bringing your love affair on social media means telling your love life goodbye, it's obvious many crashed relationships is as a result of social media because they want to impress others, they want the social media to know how their life is going.
Most people tends to copy others footsteps by bringing their whole life on social media, once they wake up they immediately go live till the end of the day, that's how they have been living and social media has been detecting and telling them how to live their lives.
MY THOUGHTS ON THIS
I believe social media has caused more harm than good to those who chose to live their whole life on social media by show casing all their love life on the internet, even the little secret they're supposed to keep is being open on social media.
I love watching things on the social media but I can't take my love life to social media because not everyone that is happy and smiling with you wants you happy. Many people seems to find love or who they love on the internet, be rest assured that not all that glitters is gold, be very careful with the person you decide to give your heart so you wouldn't have to take a broken heart back home.
