Let’s just face it, you cannot do anything on social media without it interfering in your relationship. Whether it be Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat there will always be an argument over something. We should not let social media platforms control our lives and be the topic of an argument all the time. People find it as a new way to not get caught doing something they shouldn’t and it is sickening. It is a great way to reconnect with new friends but in the long run in cause’s problems beyond belief. And the main social media platforms that cause the most problems include:

FACEBOOK:

Facebook has to be the leading cause for relationships to end and arguments. Mainly due to things that people post and who they are friends with on Facebook. Or because of the fact that you can stalk your boyfriends ex and see everything that involved the both of them, even though that shouldn’t matter. You can get messages that from another guy who is speaking to your girlfriend or from another girl who is speaking to your boyfriend; trust me you never want to receive one of those messages.

INSTAGRAM:

If you think you are posting a full body bikini pic on there while in a relationship you must be crazy. The new argument will be that you want other men to see your body and that’s not okay. Or that you are seeking the wrong attention. In the end that is no argument to win. There will be the argument of why your boyfriend follows so many girls and why so many girls like your picture. Well it goes the same for women, men will ask you why so many men follow you and like your selfies.

TWITTER:

This causes the – How come you retweeted a breakup quote or single quote from another page. Sometimes people don’t mean it, they just like the quote so they retweet it. This can end a relationship real bad because the other person will just think you want to be single.

SNAPCHAT:

Well since snapchat got rid of the option to view the top people you snap I am sure that arguments have lessen. But that doesn’t mean people don’t argue over snapchat. You will have the argument over why you are not each other’s best friend and be asked who else you’re snapping that’s more important than your significant other.

But at the end of the day if you trust your significant other than social media shouldn’t matter because most likely all of that stuff was there before you started dating. But if a problem does arise then you should address it, even if it does end the relationship because things could get ugly real quick.

In my opinion just quit with social media. It is not really getting you anywhere, you are just letting everyone know your business.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
