Are You in the Habit of Posting Self Portraits on Facebook?

Are you in the habit of posting too many self portraits or selfies on Facebook ?

If you thought that will win you more likes from friends and relatives, it might actually have the opposite effect, says a recent study.


A new study has said that sharing too many selfies on social networking sites like Facebook, could actually have a negative impact on close relationships.

A UK research has revealed that those who post photos too frequently on social networks, could end up alienating friends, colleagues, and relatives. Thus, they could lose out on supportive bonds.

Lead researcher Dr. David Houghton said people do not really appreciate if people constantly sharing photos of themselves. Further, putting up snaps of you with friends instead of a partner, spouse or lover could also spoil a long term relationship.

Is it worth it at the end of the day?
