Ever gotten into an argument over time spent on your phone or social media sites?
Do you think your s/o spends too much time on their phone? How much time do you spend on your phone?
Do you think it's possible to find a s/o that is not plugged in on some level these days?
Let's discuss.

Diamond...
Why doesn't anyone else share their relationship problems...? -
No and you still aren't off the hook for providing baby daddy updates
-
Arguments yes.
Lmao. As soon as I started typing this my girl said, who u texting. I said nobody. And she said lose ur attitude.
Smh.
We definitely argue over f.b more then anything. Like, my girl went through my f.b and deleted every single female that wasn't family talking bout, if u with me, you dont need to be talking to any of these ? . -
nope....but i see where it could be an issue
i dont mind any phone or social media time unless its my time.....like if i take you out and you're staring at your phone all night, or posting while we're eating dinner, ima have a problem with that and will say something....
other than that i dont care

There are no new updates Matt...let's keep it on topic.
So do you even have a gf? -

only if you let them be... if 2 grown ass adults are on the same page and not out here attention ? on social media sites.. yall good.. id be damn if i got into a argument with a chick over social media.. i cant even fathom
-
currently, no... in the past, yes...
thats little kid ? tho.
bottom line is that u can't neglect your s/o... -
It'll be hard to find an s/o who isn't plugged in. Some more than others, but if you're under about 35 or 40 you're likely plugged in a fair amount.
Never had an argument over social media or time spent on my phone. That's ? stupid. Every blue moon if my girl and I haven't spent quality time together and I happen to be on my phone either on twitter or talking to my ex about our son, she'll have a lil look on her face. I'll finally drag it out of her and she'll say, 'I miss you and we haven't spent a lot of time together lately. And you're on your phone.'. I'll say 'Cool, just say that. Don't sit there like a bump on a log all pouting and ? .'.
That's about the extent of it. -
Imma Bachelor's Life advocate but If I was in a relationship then it wouldn't be a issue because I'm hardly on there as is

Nope. My hoes put the phone down when I come around.

Not really going to discuss the intimate details of my marriage here, but I do think technology can become an issue in relationships because everything is accessible via social media and the worldwide web.
There is no such thing as privacy and discretion anymore.
Unfortunately this younger generation is simply plugged into social media and the internet and it will not change.
I think everyone in a serious relationship should take at least a couple days a week where they put down their tech devices and spend time socializing the old fashion way with their loved one. -
I don't see it as an issue, majority of my mobile phone time is used at work. It also works in my favor because I can watch sports or whatever on TV and my chick can just sit there playing candy crush not bothering me.
-
No issue here........when I spend time with my fiance on a date.....we have a no phone policy where we focus on each other ...we talked about it that we won't be glued to mobile phones on a date.........
We were @ a restaurant once and all we saw was couples buried in phones......eating and not talking.......society is ? up...... -
? ended my 7 year relationship.....in my 25 years on this earth and the dealings with females...they tend to complain about something like a comment on facebook....only to do the exact same thing they complained about..like having a comment on instagram..
My thing is what's the point of complaining...if your gonna turn around and do or be guilty of the same thing...
That on top of neither one of us wanting to change our ways....
Never knew not being responsible for somebodies feelings felt so.....
Grrreeeeaaatt!! -
Dont ? with sensitive or jealous s/o and there wont be an issue, point blank.

The IC counts as social media. -

I don't think it's fair to simply write it off as sensitivity or jealousy though, especially in this day and age when ALOT of what we engage in involves us to be plugged into our devices..something is going to be neglected in order to keep up, especially if you're the type that's plugged into multiple sites.

Every woman I every dated argued with me over petty ? way before social media. Thing was, I was go argue about some Internet ? irl and they knew it.
Argue about me not saying hi to yo mama or avoiding your family functions but I'd be damn if a website end my ? . -
I stalk all my exes through the Internet. With that being said I have no problem with ? online.

I only post when she's at work cuz her job doesnt allow texting & personal calls
