Does facebook comments and friend list harming your relations?Facebook jealousy

Are you committed and possessive too and keeps on monitoring your partner’s activities? If yes, then I must tell you this is something serious and will land your

relationship in trouble.

Now I am throwing some questions to you just answer in your mind and know your status. 

1. How likely you monitor your partner’s activities on Facebook?

2. How likely do you become jealous after your partner has added an unknown member of the opposite sex?

I know you are worried and confused. It’s human nature, nothing to worry about.

The researchers identified four themes that contributed to jealousy on Facebook.

Increased info about the interactions of significant others lead to increased monitoring and jealousy for 19.1% of participants

Relationship jealousy

Facebook as an addiction

10.3% of participants had major difficulty limiting the amount of time he or she looked at his or her partner’s Facebook profile.

Lack of context

Is facebook culprit?

The entire issue’s thorny. In the end, it’s more about the personality type than the technology. Certain personalities have a tougher time trusting significant others. The

technology is simply an enabler of his or her personality issues. Obsessive types will still check someone’s phone or accuse others of cheating.
