A great read for anyone in relationships or who has opinions about posting on social media while in relationships.
This author shares a pretty similar outlook as myself in that my boyfriend and I are not incredibly open about our relationship on social media. We barely have any interaction on Facebook, probably because I only use it for work purposes, and he isn’t on Twitter or Instagram. Keeping our relationship to ourselves gives us the chance to appreciate each other in person and really share those special moments together. Every once in a while we will post things about each other, but mainly it would be sharing a picture or something along those lines. Either way, even though we are not professing our love for each other on social media every week, it doesn’t change the love that we do have an share for each other on a daily basis.
Like this original author stated, this is not meant to bash those that do enjoy expressing these feelings on social media and sharing with everyone. More power to you if that is what you want to do and what works for your relationship.
Enjoy the reading all!

As a gender we tend to be more openly self-conscious than men, feeling that we need the men in our lives to provide us with the self-confidence and self-worth we desire. I can’t think of any girl who wouldn’t like a boy to post a flattering…
