One woman’s dating theory has divided social media, with one expert weighing in on the hot topic.
Chelsea Berman He shared his “theory” that if someone writes excessive “paragraphs” on social media about their partner being their soulmate – it’s a sign that the relationship is in trouble.
“You’re really unhappy in that relationship,” the singer said.
“A few reasons – one, because I’ve been there. Two, who are you trying to prove this to? You can just tell them this.
He said that there is no problem in posting about your partner on social media. He said that people who post excessively about their partner.
Apparently people’s opinion was divided on this.
One social media user commented, “Personal life is a happy life.”
Another said: “I post with my partner all the time because for the first time in my life I feel valued and happy in a relationship. So no, that is not true.”
“I think the saddest people are really the ones who judge others based on what they choose to post. Live your life,” one said.
Another commented: “Posting excessively and not posting at all is the same thing.”
“100 percent. I’ve been with my partner for seven years and post virtually nothing to prove to anyone. It’s always the toxins that work the most,” said another.
One said: “That’s a lie, I post about my man daily because I’m obsessed LOL, not because I’m sad.”
Research is divided on topics. Bumble’s 2023 Love Unfiltered report found that 27 percent of people want their partner to post about them on social media.
Meanwhile, a survey conducted on 2000 people found that 26 percent of people who posted about their partners three times a week were unhappy. Apart from this, 42 percent people were very unhappy. Meanwhile, 46 percent of people who never shared any content were very happy.
Samantha Jane, a relationship expert, told news.com.au that overposting was not only “cringe worthy” but it was “a sign of trouble”.
“Posting too much creates a sense of insecurity in the relationship, where you’re trying to prove to people how happy you are and how strong you are, which takes away from positive experiences,” she said.
“Excessive posting of affectionate photos and captions may be a sign that a couple is struggling with issues like trust or lack of communication. Sometimes, constantly posting about your relationship, or always wanting to be posted becomes a foggy layer that hides the real struggles within the relationship.
“Sometimes it’s a front, sometimes it’s also a sign that someone is in control in the relationship. When you’re with a controlling partner, expressing your love for them can reduce their resentment. Overposting can also be a weapon against an ex who won’t let go by rubbing your relationship in their face.
But the expert said that less posting is also not a good sign. He said that if you are in a happy relationship and are posting to friends and family then you should also post to your partner.
“Posting about your relationship is a sign of commitment; It’s like a digital wedding ring that shows you’re investing in the relationship,” she said.
“The next time you want to broadcast your relationship, ask yourself whether I’m doing it because I really want to celebrate something real or whether I’m trying to hide a real issue.”
