A big 58 percent of partners know their spouse&#8217;s passwords, but their partners don&#8217;t always<em>know<\/em> they know. (Uh-oh.) Instead of communicating about their insecurities, lots of spouses simply resort to snooping.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8230; and to cheat.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You would hope that your spouse is just using social media to keep in touch with friends and family, but some have a different agenda: As many as 14 percent use it to cheat on their partner. (This, of course, leads back to the first point.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>People fight over it. Really.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some things are worth fighting about, but is Facebook really one them? Well, a lot of couples think so! The same study found that almost 25 percent of the 2,000 married couples surveyed had at least one argument a week about social media, while 17 percent say it happens every day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>People find Facebook threatening.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We live in a world where Facebook and other social media are almost inescapable, but deep down, people don&#8217;t trust what they read and see. A whole 15 percent of couples believe social media is a danger to their marriage. So which platform do they think is the most dangerous one? Facebook, followed by WhatsApp, Twitter and Instagram.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Facebook usage in itself can kill marriages.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It may seem unlikely, but social media can really push a marriage to the breaking point. The study found that one in seven people have contemplated divorce because of how their spouse utilizes Facebook, Skype, Snapchat, Twitter or WhatsApp.<\/p>\n<p>But think about it: Maybe, just maybe, Facebook <em>is<\/em> a problem in your relationship \u2014 but perhaps your insecurities and infidelity were there all along, and Facebook just made them more obvious. <em>Hmm.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field field-name-field-footer-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\">\n<div id=\"md28\" class=\"field-items\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Source:\u00a0magazine.foxnews.com<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once you exchange vows, you&#8217;d like to hope that something as silly as Facebook wouldn&#8217;t be the thing (if any) to tear you apart, but you hear about it happening all the time these days.
