Love by Committee: When Friends, Family, Exes and Social Media Control Your Relationship
About this episode
This episode explores how external influences can affect personal relationships and decision-making.
How many people get a vote in your relationship? In Episode 359, MCM examines how friends, family, exes, coworkers, group chats and social media can influence private relationship decisions, damage trust and make reconciliation more difficult. This episode explores relationship interference, unwanted advice, couple communication, emotional boundaries, privacy versus secrecy, family influence and the danger of discussing your partner with everyone except your partner. When outside opinions become louder than the two people involved, is the relationship still yours? Listen to You’re Probably Right Podcast and ask yourself one question: If everyone else became quiet, what would you actually decide?
