if you are a married man should it be right for you to have a facebook account?

[Tartersauce]

If she trusts him, why do you have a problem with it? There are people looking for attention everywhere. It's true that FB (and all social media) has made cheating a lot easier, but people who are going to go outside their marriages will do that one way or another. Likewise, people who won't, won't.

Yes it is right for him to have one. It does not matter what other peoples intentions are. You cannot let someone limit what you do because others have ill intent. So you think married women can have them but not married men? Interesting. It seems that more men are on the internet looking for things than woman are.

My husband and I both have FB accounts, and are each other's friends. We have never had a problem. Of course, I have to watch what I say, LOL.

So... it's ok for HER to have FB but not him?????

Good grief.. stupid is out in full force today, isn't it?

Whether a person utilizes social media or not has nothing to do with their marital status. Let the singles try.. who cares? People who are committed to their spouses are committed to their spouses.

It's no different than walking out the door everyday into your life outside the home. We are who we are and we conduct ourselves accordingly. For millions of people, FB isn't a dating site. For most married folks, it's a way to post pictures of the family, keep in a form of contact with friends and family that doesn't require actual personal attention and to slip in ways to advertise your business.

You are stirring up trouble where it sounds like there is none.

So she is allowed a Facebook account but he isn't because they are married? So WHAT, Facebook goes BEYOND meeting up with new people, in fact often it is a way of talking to family and old friends.

I have a Facebook account and did when I was married, my ex had one, my siblings and their spouses have accounts, high school friends and their spouses have accounts and the list continues. It is called put your account on PRIVATE so you are limited who can see your profile.

I am married and older and have a face book account. I use it to keep up with some family members who live away and even friends and children who are close. I also keep up with colleagues who have similar interests as me. Just because you have a face book account doesn't mean you're up to no good. Yes there are some face book friends who post almost hourly activities and re-post silly or childish crap, but it's mostly innocent fun to stay connected.

You are so obsessed with him and that's crazy because you are obsessed about someone that doesn't bound to you legally. Don't you think you're abit off limit poking your nose on their private business? Even if they share facebook account so what? It's their choice as long as they are happy. So tell me, how long have you slept with her husband hmm?

You are kinda right and Facebook can cause confusion, some are entertained by it and others are not. I guess you have to have a strong marriage with TRUST to open up a Facebook page. I'm not enthused about it but i would not mind if my spouse had Facebook. I should be able to trust him enough, to hold himself as a grown, married, civilized man.
