If your so asked you to delete Facebook would you?

Question

Social media sites cause a lot of jealousy issues between my boyfriend and I, sometimes I just want to delete it but then I wonder if that's an extreme thing to do and he should just trust me. Thoughts?

Answer

The jealousy problems aren't just limited to Facebook and if you delete your account he'll just start worrying about something else! It's a trust issue, not a Facebook issue. No, I wouldn't delete my accounts because I have absolutely no reason to.

Answer

My husband and I deleted our Facebooks and made one together. It wasn't a jealousy issue or trust issue, we just didn't see the point in having separate ones.

Answer

I did

Answer

Facebook is a major part of staying in touch with my family, so no.. I wouldn't delete mine and he would just need to get over it. For this reason I would never ask him to delete his either. The jealousy is usually due to the fact that one or both parties is in contact with someone they shouldn't be in contact with or doing things they shouldn't be doing via FB.

Answer

Been there done that. My husband and I agreed to delete our facebooks several years ago before we were even married. We felt that social media puts pressure on couples and we wanted to avoid that. Been together 5 years now, married for 1 year on December 30th and if I had to do it all over again, I would gladly delete facebook again.

Answer

If he had a legitimate reason (not just jealousy) and felt strongly about it I would respect his feelings.

Answer

Answer

I think it depends on what is causing the jealousy and concerns and if deleting Facebook would fix the issue.

If you or he are doing something on the site that would make the other feel uncomfortable, then you should consider deleting it. This would be flirting with people via Facebook. Lying about where you were and getting caught by a posted photo or being tagged somewhere. Though, deleting Facebook won't stop someone from doing those things.

On the other hand, and I know nothing about your situation as I type this, isolation is one of the first indicators of an abusive relationship. In the cycle of domestic violence, one partner will make the other feel isolated and begin controlling their partner's life. After that physical abuse often occurs. Because the person is isolated from family and friends they have no one to turn to about the abuse.

Answer

Yes, I would.
