OLD FLAMES FOUND ON FACEBOOK

COULD FACEBOOK RUIN YOUR MARRIAGE???

Have you ever "friended" an ex on Facebook? The reason I ask is because according to a marriage and family therapist in Oklahoma named Tara Fritsch, TWO in every FIVE couples that come to see her for counseling are having some sort of marital problem . . . that stems from Facebook.

Tara says, "[With] about 40% of the couples coming in, there's a link to Facebook or MySpace that has caused a breach in their marriage. "An ex-love, an old flame, there's nostalgia there. There's memory of the simple days or maybe excitement of new romance. "When things start being said [on Facebook] that you don't want your spouse to see, things that you might hide, things that you might not be comfortable saying in person or having your spouse hear, then it's taken that step across a boundary."

(--So, again, I ask: Have you ever "friended" an ex on Facebook? And, if so, are you worried about the effect it could have on your marriage? Because, it seems, maybe you should be. Or not. What do I know?)
