In today’s society, we’re electronically interconnected in more ways than ever before. Some lament this. Others celebrate. Whatever your stance, technology keeps on evolving. How is technology affecting your relationship? What do you do in these situations?
My fiancée just changed her status from “in a relationship” to “it’s complicated.” What’s that mean?
I just found my high school flame. Do I friend them or not?
It won’t hurt to let the rest of the world know that my spouse was a jerk for doing….
I’m afraid my wife is spending too much time with a guy online. She says it’s innocent, but I’m starting to wonder.
Maybe you could benefit from taking some time to think about how Facebook and other social media can be used in a positive way for your relationship. Jason and Kelli Krafsky, long-time affiliate partners of the Couple Checkup, recently released a book called Facebook and your Marriage. They even developed an entire partner website (www.fbmarriage.com) full of ideas for using Facebook to make your marriage better.
Through the book and website, they highlight some very important Do’s and Don’ts for how Facebook can affect your marriage. I don’t want to steal their thunder – so check out their site. If you haven’t already, you can even take the Couple Checkup through their site.
Whether we like it or not, the world’s changing. Let’s make sure our most important relationships keep up with the pace.
right on!!…write me soon Matt!
