Although it is true that twitter has helped oversee fostering positive relationships, it has also done more harm than good. Twitter asides being a social site also acts as a dating site where young tweeps get to rub minds, get close and get involved; one of the pro's of this development is that relationships have grown positively and friends have turned to lovers which in turn have turned to spouses but unfortunately as usual the cons outweigh the pro's when it comes to relationships. Some people date via the app mainly because of sex, to commit fraudulent acts (rape, BDSM) on uncooperative partners and just to have NUDES!!!
I once dated a guy who after dating for about two months, he all of a sudden stopped calling me. (mind you we had not met as he stayed far away from where I did - I would say we were virtual lovers) and stopped buzzing me on any of my social media handles, I could see this guy was updating his profile everyday (mind you this guy is the definition of ugly, I dated him because he seemed like the nicest guy ever. I am not one to date a guy who I term Ugly but I did anyways and oh did I regret it) I realised that this guy valued his twitter over me, I mean he had not called in days but he kept uploading shit and it hurt me so bad. So one day after I got home from work I called him, he picked and I asked his straight up if he wanted us to break up, I was expecting a reply but all he could say was that we should talk about it via social media ( I was super angry now but I was like okay, I did not get why he couldn't tell me straight out and let me clear my feelings as quickly as possible)
He finally got on my BBM and started saying shit like it wasn't me it was him, that we were too far away and he wouldn't be coming back anytime soon bla and bla. He asked if we could still be friends but nah fam I hated him too much. After some days, I saw him again tweeting for RT's just for people to say he had blown for probably having tweeted something dope, I was not hurt because of the break up. I was hurt because that was why he broke up with me. I told myself that maybe he would call me one day but he never did (Anyway I moved on two days after the whole ordeal and I am fine now)
The whole point of this is to make you all understand that twitter has its pro's and con's. My advice stop dating guys over the internet, look around you for God's sake there are many fishes in the ocean. It hurts when I see young girls let themselves go for the bull crap guys put up on their social media pages. I am not a feminist and I do not believe all men are scum, I know some men are scum and these men are trash to me. Having said all this I am done dating guys off twitter or any social media site.
