Scenario

When social media comparison is affecting your relationship satisfaction

My partner and I both compare our relationship to what we see on social media and we know it's stupid but we can't stop and it's creating these weird insecurities about whether we're happy enough or doing enough interesting things together. We're measuring our real life against everyone else's highlight reel and it's making us doubt what we have.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are letting curated digital representations of other relationships distort their perception of their own lived experience together.
