Is Facebook Stimulating Divorce?

ADVERTISEMENTS

Facebook can be a place where you see some things you may not want to see about the ones you care about, but according to some unofficial research from a law firm in the United Kingdom, it may actually be leading some couples to divorce.

Facebook allows couples to see potentially flirty messages from other people on their spouses’ walls and pages, according to the UK’s Telegraph. The paper reported that some relationships were even being ended actually via the social networking site.

One divorce-specialized British law firm reported that one in every five divorce cases they review sites Facebook as a factor in the divorce.

While there is no concrete evidence to support the fact that Facebook might be increasing the divorce rate, based on the reach and capabilities of the site, it isn’t surprising that it might be the reason some relationships are ending.
