Facebook/Twitter for the Ladies

It is so easy to discuss your feelings on social networks. Most of your friends follow you on twitter and are friends with you on facebook. When something goes wrong it is automatic for a female to want to post a status. But is there a limit to what you post? Everyday me and millions of others read statuses that we think are too much. Some people use social networks as diaries or venting machines. I have posted a few statuses that were about men or friends. It felt good to release some emotion and even better when people commented and understood my frustration. It isn’t always rational to post everything. For instance, I told my mister about his Christmas gift yesterday and he wasn’t hype to the level which I thought he should be. So instead of just letting it go, I posted a tweet about the issue and mentioned him as well. Some females would read this and ask where the problem is. But with matters of the heart it is best to only discuss them with your close friends. My mister was very mad and thought it was corny and immature. I thought about it and agreed. Facebook/Twitter shouldn’t be used to vent about your relationships or how some man has done you wrong. Although the facebook status ask “What are you thinking” the whole world doesn’t need to know. When us females post status about or relationships in a negative manor we only make the man mad and cause more problems. As you ladies WE must understand that everything doesn’t deserve a reaction. I know that it is hard because I’m still learning. Don’t give someone the benefit of knowing that they have made you so mad that you have to post it. Find another way to release your emotions without others knowing. For instance if you have a Blackberry or and smart phone there is a notepad. Instead of posting a status write how you feel and the good part is there is no character limit. This could be your diary, which only you know how you feel. We all say that we don’t want everyone to know all our business or we don’t want to give ourselves completely to a man but by posting statuses you are. Another thing that ladies do, we read to deep into statuses. I think social networks gives people the ability to be who they aren’t in real life. Many ladies that are in relationships clock their boyfriend’s statuses or tweets like an officer. I truly believe that if you’re a female that reads into everything or gets jealous quickly you need to unfollow your man and delete him as a friend. I say this because I have seen many relationships end because of social networks. A lot of times men write statuses that are lyrics to a song, a convo that they are having with the boys, or just random thoughts. No one really tweets their true feelings on social networks. If you react every time you read something and confront him with the issue its going to become annoying. A man loves a woman with confidence; one that isn’t worried about other females, one that knows he’s with me, and one that trust him to do right. A lot of females have done that with a male before and were hurt. But please use your past relationships as notes not an outline for your current one.
