There a lot of couples have joint social media accounts, but now couples are going even further and sharing their passwords with each other.
According to a recent survey done by Pew Research Center, couples are more willing to share their their social media passwords with each other than ever before. They are more willing to share passwords than their calendars.
According to the survey 59% of users in a relationship five years or less share passwords and the number goes up to 79%, for couples in relationships ten years or more. Only 10% share online calendars with each other.
I wonder if this is because social media has been blamed by many for breakups and divorces. Many people use social media as a way to find out if their significant other is cheating. Maybe couples think that by sharing their passwords, they can avoid the questioning from their partners.
