Currently, the use of so-called smartphones allows these couples to have the convenience of communicating at any time, especially when the WhatsApp application booms, being able to receive calls and messages in real time, as well as send photos and audios, and where they can know if the person is connected. These applications are useful in moments of personal absence of the couple so they have been established within the daily routine of the relationship, largely occupying the main communication path making its use for several hours a day.
On the one hand, they facilitate interpersonal communication with people close to each other affectively and with groups of belonging, as well as with strangers, or acquaintances of our acquaintances. And on the other they also allow monitoring the activities of others: identify if a message was seen and at what time or if someone was connected and how long ago, among other possibilities, aspects that these companies know very well and use, who does not like have control ?.
Some time ago I was able to talk to some couples who reported that they use these social networks to a great extent, but prefer to maintain privacy in the relationship, these apps allow them to be more open and comfortable, even to be able to conquer and seduce their counterpart through the uses of this social networks this favors the first stages of formation of the couple.
Likewise, networks are an element of sharing interests, and of openly manifesting to the public that they are in a relationship. It is of great importance for these people that their own partner and others recognize the courtship, publishing states and photos of the couple.
So the youth their relationships live in networks expose the public their personal experiences, share their sentimental situation in their profile, upload photos of couple, dedicate songs, phrases, messages or states allow a public recognition that seeks the approval of significant others and an ad that shows ownership over the couple, which aims to limit the threats of others and others.
Likewise, these networks form a means by which the individual can sometimes talk about aspects that in person are difficult, especially in the face of embarrassment or specific problems of the couple; so these networks can facilitate openness and daring in the relationship.
In addition, the issue of trust is something that is related to the dynamics of the relationship in the networks, some people say that the interaction of the couple with others in these media does not influence their relationship while others refer that depending on the context of This interaction is a source of problems, jealousy or discomfort, especially in the face of secrets that have been the reason for disputes between partners. These people admit feeling calm and comfortable to see these profiles of social networks of their partners and not find something they consider strange or unpleasant.
Some of the people give great importance to these networks because they admit that their relationship would be different without them, since the couple would not know each other, or share certain aspects, while others say that they would not interfere, especially because the couples have not maintained conflicts important with the use of the same, forming these only a means of communication of the couple; However, they say that they have discussed using media such as WhatsApp.
The new possibilities of communication through technologies are changing the meaning of being present and dedicating time, being interested in the other, or feeling accompanied. Now not only is clamoring for the real presence of the loved one but also for the virtual presence, which is both a source of closeness in the couple, as well as real or imaginary conflict in the face of a lack of response.
In addition, they say that in case of ending their current relationship some would prefer to block or eliminate contact with their partner by these networks and others say they would not, this will largely depend on the reasons for said break, similarly happens with the photos of the relationship.
In general, couples have a positive outlook of social networks in their relationship dynamics where despite having some conflicts these have been solved being important to them the utility they represent allowing them to maintain a contact with their partner against physical distance.
And what do you think about social networks in relationships?
