Relationships and MYSPACE

A discussion was brought to attention about relationships and Myspace. Should there be a limit for people in relationships to frequent the Myspace site? There have been comments made that after a certain age men and women should has no business being social on Myspace especially those in relationships and/or married. It was said Myspace causes issues in some relationships with the man/woman browsing for hours and making friends. It was also thought maybe the party would be contacting these "new friends" on a regular basis and it went to the level of exchanging phone numbers and personal e-mail addresses. Stories were even said that some meetings were scheduled to meet the "new friends" from Myspace.

Now as we know the internet has become the new dating place to meet and chat. If your mate is on Myspace looking for that then they are obviously not that interested in the relationship they are in. To be quite honest Myspace wouldn't be the main issue to worry about, trusting your mate should be. If he/she is on Myspace making friends on Myspace just think of what they are doing in local places like the mall, gas stations, clubs or where they go.

Myspace isn't always the bad guy, there is a large population that use it for advertising, marketing and keeping in touch with personal friends or running into old friends. A lot of businesses advertise, new music artists promote their songs, etc.

Maybe communication should be made within the relationship about the boundries and expectations of browsing Myspace. Or could these be trust issues or insecurities. The main picture that should be addressed is within the relationship itself, why would your mate be looking for love or lust on Myspace in the first place. Hmmmmmm??????

Myspace should not be a problem in a relationship. Honestly if your mate will cheat on the internet then they will probably do it in person also. People have beef over the internet all the time b/c they are can mask who they really are and no one will ever know. Myspace is used by most people for marketing and just keeping in touch with people they don't see normally.

Now that I'm looking at the problematic of being browsing for hours making friends. I accept I'm happen to be in the same predicament, you get to know many people and never decide for anyone. You also feel a necessity for touching and feeling a girl Generic Viagra mostly when you haven't had sex for a long time.
