Status: Single?

So, you're splitting up, you're spitting feathers and you want to get your own back?

It's very tempting to let rip on Facebook or Twitter about your soon-to-be-ex, but it's really best to maintain the higher moral ground and at least some of your dignity...

Here are some of the do's and don'ts of divorcing on social media:
  • Don't use social media to get personal.  Yes, we know you want to.
  • If you lie, you could have a libel action against you.
  • Don't make negative comments about your ex.  Again, we know you want to...
  • Don't post pictures of yourself at social gatherings - even if you do look stunning.
  • Avoid 'checking in' to any locations - your ex may well be watching.
  • Remember you and your ex may have mutual friends so watch what you comment on.
  • Don't change your relationship status to 'single' until your divorce is finalised.
  • It's best not to interact online - use private emails or texts instead.
  • If you're in any doubt about using your social media accounts, close them down!
And remember, if you want to talk to someone and let off steam, you could just pick up the phone or meet them for a coffee!
