Influence of society on romantic relationships

When I came across the contest, I was thinking about how I would express affection to my future partner. I am someone who enjoys watching love scenes in movies. My imagination knows no bounds; it's just a feeling. Waking up to see your partner by your side, someone you call your own, your soulmate – there's a lot of fun out there. People share their love lives on social media through videos and posts, and I felt happy seeing couples showcasing their dancing skills; it was adorable.

Do you think people should have an opinion on other people's relationships?

No, people should generally refrain from having opinions on others' relationships because it is not their business. They know nothing about other people's relationships, so they have no right to give their opinion unless asked. Sometimes, their opinions may be needed, but they end up being judgmental due to their own experiences. For example, people are likely to suggest a breakup when there's a challenge between two lovers instead of finding a solution.

Relationships are private matters, but if our attention is needed, we can offer support. If we notice that there is abuse or toxic behavior in a relationship, we can approach them to make things right but not be judgmental.

In today's society, everything is published on social media. Do you think that affects romantic relationships?

I have seen people share everything about their lives on social media, and sometimes what they share can affect them in the future. Many couples use social media to resolve family issues but ask their audience and followers for advice. You'll also see videos of lovely couples having fun together and groups or channels for relationship advice.

On the other hand, using social media to seek advice can lead to negative feelings like a lack of trust and jealousy. It's important to be aware that while social media can bring solutions to relationships, it can also bring out negative emotions.

Could it be that nowadays, we idealize people too much because of what we see on social media?

Yes, social media contributes to idealizing people. For example, you might see a couple showcasing how much they love each other, which can make us expect the same from our partners. However, these posts often only show the positive aspects and may not reflect the reality of the relationship. Social media can make us think that we're perfect, beautiful, and flawless. Instead of idealizing people, we should appreciate everyone's genuine qualities.
