According to a Veja`s magazine article, the number of love affairs that were broken up trough facebook has increased a lot. This fact make us think about how facebook can help or frustrate the relationships.


First of all, Facebook is a social net and its objective is to do people meet and talk to each other in an easiest way. In this point, Facebook helps a plenty. Friends that live in different cities can keep in touch without has to pay an enormous telephone bill. Sweethearts can get back in touch if they are too busy to go out, and can, in a way, control the partner`s life.

However, in facebook you can also expose yourself in a bad way. Some people forget that thousands of other people can see what they are writing, the photos that they put in the facebook`s album and the messages that other people let in their mural. You need careful, because if you post a comment about a friend or a classmate, he can see and might do not like. Then, this comment can mean the end of the friendship and the beginning of a fight between you two. This type of case can happen with lovers too, and if they start to argue through facebook, it can end with the brake up of the courtship and a public exposition of something that would be particular.

In conclusion, we think facebook can be a good ally in the development of relationships, but the people who use it should pay attention about what they write and post, to don`t turn into public things that is better stay in the particular ways.
