Social Media & Dating - When Is It Right To Make The Next Step


Have you ever seen one of those old corny pioneer movies that portray a man asking the father to go on a date with his daughter? What if life was like that today? Fortunately it's not. However there are stipulations in which the dating world follows and these stipulations are quite odd indeed. Welcome to The Oddities In Life.

I remember when I was growing up and going out dating that there was no Facebook or other social media platforms existing to enslave our titles when dating.  In today's society, before a couple can be officially declared a couple, they apparently now have to post it on their status saying they are dating so and so, and occasionally will even see the dates in which they began dating included. The kicker is if you knew that couple before they posted their relationship status to Facebook, then you get the joy in laughing at the fact that this so called “new couple” have actually been dating or “seeing each other” for the past several months. There is also the fact in which I'm sure many of you have been asked; are you and ... Facebook official yet? This question continually haunts every relationship as to when it is appropriate to post it on Facebook. This to me and I'm sure many of you readers will agree, the relationship status declarations on Facebook is one tedious tasks that has integrated itself into our relationships.
