16 New Relationship Status Options On Facebook

Facebook is working efficiently, systematically, insanely and honestly to find the option that best describes your relationship. Yes, your boyfriend might not be telling you exactly where he stands with you, but worry not! Just go to your Facebook and by a click of a button baptize your relationship with him. 

You will feel the hurt while choosing the right one from their given relationship status options, but again, something is better than nothing, right? Now obviously, in this situation, you will pick their “It’s complicated”. But what if your situation changes tomorrow and you again have to take care of your relationship status?  Facebook understands it. Thus, as mentioned before, they are working to give you more titles for your relationship. So far they have provided 11 of them. Just check below.

I really don’t think the ones given above can describe every relationship status.  So I do agree that Facebook needs to come up with some more.  I actually have some suggestions for them.  Just see below:

• Crushing


• In one sided love affair


• In an abusive relationship


• In a secret relationship


• Married but in an extra marital affair

Does Your Online Date Want Your Money

Online dating has turned into a relief for those who struggle to meet singles in their own cities. Many researchers have shown that it is usually the divorcees who prefer this mode for meeting new partners. But those who are unmarried also seem to have no problem in using online dating services. So in a way, this form of courting is not going to go away anytime soon. But did you know sometimes it can compel you empty your bank account just out of love? When something like this happens rest assure yourself that you are doing it all for a con artist.

Actually, in some cases, the person you have found online can use emotional blackmail to get money out of you.  You might not always be the victim of it unless this love interest of yours lives in a foreign country. The notion goes something like this:

• You chat with him through either Aim or Skype.
• This keeps happening for months.
• He promises to visit you.
• He suddenly gets into financial crisis for which he tells you that he cannot buy a plane ticket.
• It touches you and that is why, you give him some money.
• He asks you for more. This can happen only if he has more greed.
• Then suddenly, he nowhere to be found.

So you see when someone from a dating service asks you for money you need to think twice. Perhaps, this person is really after your money. He might not say it upfront, but he will show it through self-pity which we should take as emotional blackmail.

Sometimes things can go a little ahead especially if you are a male. The woman you have met online might come to see you. But do not let it convince you that she is all too trustworthy. One of my friends’ brothers got conned by a woman whom he used to visit from USA to Canada. He paid for her tuition fees and partially financed her restaurant. But as soon when he gave her $20,000 to save her business from bankruptcy she disappeared.  It just happened one day and he found himself hammering his head for trusting her.  That is why; we must understand that con artists can keep playing the dating game to trap their chosen people for several months or years.

Overall, even if you fall hard for someone only to find out that they want money from you drag yourself away from them by any means possible. Otherwise, you will become a victim of a really ugly situation.

How to Know That You Are Shallow in Love and Relationships

Being shallow means not having any depth. In psychology, it is linked to the mind that cannot think deeper before taking any actions. Interestingly, this can have an influence over a person’s relationships also.  Millions of people are already going through it, but are you one of them too? Analyze yourself to know the answer by going through the points given below. They basically explain whether you are giving into shallow relationships.

• You want to be in a relationship just because your friend has one: This can be taken as indirect peer pressure. Sometimes when we see our friends happy with their boyfriends we can feel sad and lonely as singles. This is a natural psychological response. But this does not mean that we should let it force us to become desperate to be with just anyone. Desperateness actually leads us to look for love in all wrong places.

• You want to be in a relationship just for financial support: This is quite a dangerous decision. Money might allow you to live in a nice house and drive a good car, but it will never guarantee complete happiness in your relationship.

• You are with someone just because they look attractive, but you know that you two do not get along with each other: No explanation is needed here. You are basically with the person just so they stay as your arm candy at parties. In the house, the headlines news is that you two throw plates at each other. In short, you are unhappy with them, yet you do not break up.

• You are with the person because you want to have sex:  In this case, you will see that you have no emotional chemistry with the person you are dating. But you are still with them because you like having sex with them.
