We Need To Stop Obsessing Over 'The Perfect Couple' And Look Into Our Own Lives

Social media is a huge outlet for so many different couples of various ages going through their lives in the same ways that we are put under a huge spotlight. Unfortunately for some, the pressures are too difficult to even cope with due to the constant following insinuating for them to stay together or setting these high expectations that are insanely difficult to reach. We tend to forget that these people have lives and emotions of their own that they are dealing with on a daily basis. So many fans become so invested in these relationships, that if these couples break up it's even worse on them as they are constantly reminded about the other person through memes, videos, and pictures.

Yes, it's difficult to get through any break-up, but being constantly reminded of the person and why you broke up must be so difficult. There are so many couples who are constantly admired by different fan bases which are truly amazing, but it's when the fans become angry or gain an emotional connection to the relationship that it could truly upset those who are in it. We need to look at the big picture and realize that this isn't something that we should be involved with, although we can support them and their happiness.

It's upsetting that followers and supporters who are supposed to be there for the people they admire decide to make the break-ups, rumors, or even fights much more than they are. Talking about these difficulties in a relationship that you don't even know is so unfair to the people who are in it. The second that someone says something on twitter about a couple that everyone loves, it's immediately drawn out of proportion and people are hurt and affected by the tweet. I think that we all tend to forget that our words could truly impact the lives of so many people. Even if you're sitting on your phone or behind a computer screen composing a tweet, your words are still being sent out and read by at least someone.

Instead of bashing these people in relationships and constantly checking in to see if they are broken up, we should support the individuals in whatever they feel is necessary to share and focus on our own lives and what may be our own personal struggles.

Relationships are difficult and there's absolutely nothing wrong with following two people that you absolutely love and want the same for yourself. With that said, let's remember to also give space and respect towards those who may be going through certain situations that are difficult and need to be dealt with by the two individuals who are in the relationship. Your time will come and you will find someone who makes you happy as your absolute dream couple. Remember that everything is not what it seems and it's crucial that we allow for change to happen instead of trying to make it occur from our social platforms.

Reflecting on your own life and comparing your own thoughts to the way you feel about celebrity relationships may change your own perception of what you want in yours.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
