If you're considering a divorce, remember to keep your social interactions above-board, and not just the in person meetings. The recent surge of interest in everything from online dating, to social media is having its own effect in the Family Law courtrooms of America.
Places like Facebook are particularly high on the list of places where divorce attorneys look for contributing factors and information about spouses who are parties to a divorce. Everything from conversations to wall posts and friends lists are up for grabs as evidence of infidelity or divorce plans.
With so many people reconnecting online through social media, it is understandable for couples to run into old flames or exes online. While this can be a tough situation in some relationships, what needs to be examined more than a spouse finding an old ex to rekindle a relationship online, is the state of the marriage that allows that situation to root in the first place.
Social media is a great way to unwind and stay in touch with family and friends, as well as meet new people with similar interests. What married couples need to remember however, is to shut off the computer and spend time with one another every day. No matter how much work you have to do, or how much the house needs cleaning, or how much you enjoy being online, it should not be a substitute for the best friend relationship you share with your spouse. If it is, you could expect nothing less than a shift in perspective at the very least, and eventual divorce at the worst, to be the result.
