Decoding Couples' Social Media PDA: What It Reveals

Research suggests that couples who frequently post about each other on social media may be masking relationship insecurities, particularly those with anxious attachment styles who seek reassurance. While avoidant partners may prefer privacy, anxiously attached individuals often use social media to gain validation. Therapists note that oversharing can detract from quality time and may reflect deeper issues, though motivations for posting vary widely. Ultimately, social media often portrays an idealized version of relationships, not the full reality.
