These forms of communicating do cause problems in specific types of relationships. Within romantic relationships the improper use of cell phones and SN have become a source for relational transgressions.

    The use of cell phones and social networks (SN) have become a common way to effectively and efficiently communicate with others in today’s society. These forms of communicating do cause problems in specific types of relationships. Within romantic relationships the improper use of cell phones and SN have become a source for relational transgressions. These transgressions then lead to relational uncertainties that can cause many problems within a relationship to form. Relational problems can lead to destructive behavioral patterns that can result in the termination of the relationship. Partners can prevent the usage of cell phones and SN from ruining their relationship but only if they’re willing to take the time to find out what the solutions are and apply them. Past research on how SN effect relationships has focused on community--based SN like Facebook. In this paper, it is proposed that future research should look into newer forms of SN that focus on group messaging as a way in which people interact with each other including how they interact in romantic relationships.

    Abstract

    This research investigates the use of sarcasm in romantic relationships by testing the correlations between level of sarcasm, humor style, relationship satisfaction, and interpersonal solidarity with different types of relationships. The research aim was to investigate whether individuals perceive the use of sarcasm as a positive or negative quality in a romantic partner. Though previous research labels sarcasm as an aggressive humor style that works against enhancing interpersonal relationships, this research sought to investigate if it was possible for sarcasm to be utilized by both positive and negative humor styles. The results indicated that one out of four types of sarcasm, frustration diffusion sarcasm, related to both affiliative and aggressive humor styles. The results also indicated that aggressive humor is most commonly used in casual dating relationships rather than established, committed relationships.
