Here’s the tea on having to delete your Instagram account for your significant other

Technology has changed so many things about how we live our lives. From how we choose to spend our free time, to where we do our shopping, and especially in the way we connect to people. It’s become so much easier to communicate with the people we know, and meet others we don’t.

Unfortunately, this can make some couples wary. With so many people looking to “slide into your DMs” on Instagram, it can make you paranoid enough to wonder if anyone is trying to flirt with your significant other. Because of this, it’s become a trend for some couples to delete their Instagram accounts as a show of faith.

It’s a bit controversial as some argue that you should be able to trust your partner without limiting their actions. Others question whether that kind of relationship would be too controlling. So we decided to ask the WIM Squad if they would be willing to delete their Instagram accounts for their significant others. Here are their (very telling) answers:

15. No……. It’s my account and my life. I had IG before him ?

2. No. Having to delete/monitor your socmed activity, just because your S.O. wants you to, is already a huge red flag. Drop that toxicity.
