It didn't end the relationship, it just causes drama. I know I am not the only one, I know people up to their early 30's who have been a victim of bulls*** arguments (even the smallest) involving jealously, skepticism etc. due to MySpace. To be fair, I think it's obvious how & why MySpace could cause friction between a couple. So before you begin to judge, analyze & incompetently critique my relationship, you should ask around and hear other similar cases because they DO exist. But in all fairness, we can both agree......Tracy McGrady owns Shawn Bradley.
i can see how a overly jealous person can get upset and how myspace can hurt/damage a relationship but like someone said above if a guy/girl gets upset over a picture than it probably wasnt going to work out. (of course if its a picture of your significant other making out with someone else thats different) i mainly use myspace as a way to keep in touch with some of the folks i met out here in houston and some of my high school friends. most of my page is filled with rocket stuff anyway. but its gotten out of hand when my 50 something year old mom asked me the other day if i had a myspace page. i dont even want to know how she heard of it she barely knows how to send an email.
Lets count the reasons why to NOT post personal crap on in internet. 1. You can get fired. 2. You can lose out on a job interview. 3. You can lose your significant other. ... ... ...
1) Don't use your name or real email. 2) Don't use your name or real email. 3) Make your sh*t private.

Facebook is way cooler. 6:47 in = relationship parody. Dude actually got a pilot with FOX after he made this video. b****es ain't **** cept hoes and tricks.
Agreed. I can see myspace hurting/ending a relationship when you're seventeen, but to be affected when you're older than that, I just don't get it. I guess if one person in the relationship goes slutting around on the site or you continually choose to have serious talks and fights over myspace rather than face to face, then you run the chance of getting into trouble. It just seems way too petty and cliche to let it hurt your relationship, imo.
and I agree myspace can cause a problem, but so can leaving the toilet seat up and hogging the remote control. You have to be committed to resolving issues and if something like myspace is causing jealously issues, it shows a lack of trust and/or security in the relationship in the first place.
a lack of trust is right from what i've seen with it messing up relationships of friends. But.. people can work through problems like that, too--at least when they're caused by immaturity that people can grow out of.
Check my sig...oh wait... I've gotten into arguments or questioned over myspace...Is it worth it? Well, that's how I got into touch with a lot of High School friends that I haven't talked to in ages...So yeah...
Well not the fault of myspace I guess. I found out some information about our relationship via myspace, which led to the divorce.
That has to be the most jacked up formatting and clutter I've ever seen on a myspace profile. Congrats!
Man I am sorry to hear that. Hope it gets better. I always kind of keep my guard up with that kind of stuff. Its a good place to re-connect with high-school and college friends, but be careful with who you let into your little world.
Any type of social network is a waste of time. I deleted all of mine friendster, myspace, facebook, etc a while back. All it did was make it easier for me to procrastinate and easier way for others to drop drama. I don't why other girls think it's ok for them to drop drama on people.. it makes us all look bad. Some of you guys do that too.
LOL you need to go check out the women vs women in the workplace thread! I absolutely agree... people who take these social networking things seriously don't deserve to have a significant other. It's a maturity thing! Of course, if there weren't so many people trying to "pick up" other people on them it would be a lot easier to take them at face value. Oh and if you are a guy.. just delete "questionable" comments from other women... and don't put them in your top friends. Saves you lots of girlfriend drama.
I have a MySpace relationship story... About two weeks ago I came home from work tired and ready to relax. I wanted to check the TV Guide online to see what was on TV. I ask my girlfriend, with whom I live, if she is done with the laptop (it's mine but she uses it, too). She said something like "Yeah, I think I'm signed off MySpace. You can use it." So I sat down in front of the laptop, clicked on the tab in which the MySpace page was open because I didn't want to change the tab she was already on in case she still needed something from that page, and when I clicked on the MySpace tab, I found out that she was not logged off. She was still signed on to it and was in her inbox, viewing a message from a guy named "Andy". Her business is her own, and we don't bother each other about MySpace stuff, but I couldn't help but read it. I would have had to close my eyes immediately and walk away to not see it. In one of the messages, he asked her if they could "have fun again". This could be bad, but it also could be nothing. So, no biggie yet. However, on the same screen was her reply: "Oh yes... but Travis [me] is here right now, and I can't be naughty while he's here... hehehe..." I didn't know how to react. I wasn't pissed off, I wasn't sad, I just felt awkward. I didn't want to know my girlfriend was apparently having cyber sex with some stranger, and I really didn't want to talk about it. So, I just closed the window and acted like everything was alright. I would have just dumped her right then and there, but our lease has a ways to go and I can't afford the apartment by myself. A few days later, after going to a movie with her only to have her b**** through the whole damn thing, I said **** it and I decided to break up with her later that night, making no mention of the cyber sexing and simply saying it was because I no longer had any feelings for her (which had been true for quite some time). I should have known MySpace would be the end of us. After all, she found me on MySpace about 2 years ago.
