My partner and I both say Instagram makes us feel bad but we keep using it and we keep comparing our relationship to what we see on there and then we fight about stupid stuff like why we don't travel as much or look as happy in photos. We've talked about deleting it but then one of us always finds a reason why we need it and we're back to scrolling and feeling worse about ourselves and each other.
