Bachelor in Paradise star Blake Horstmann has proven that he is not afraid to share the most intimate details of his romantic life with the world. According to UsMagazine.com, just a few days ago, the reality TV star revealed scandalous text messages sent from Caelynn Miller-Keyes on his Instagram story and has gotten backlash ever since.
In celebrity news, things are being clarified after the drama with Blake and Caelynn was shown on the first episode of Bachelor in Paradise. What are some reasons to keep your intimate life private?
Cupid’s Advice:
Not everyone has the luxury of keeping their relationships private (especially celebrity couples), but if you do have the choice, Cupid has some relationship advice on reasons to keep your intimate life private, unlike Blake Horstmann and Caelynn Miller-Keyes:
1. Too many opinions: Everyone is going to have an opinion about your relationship whether you like it or not. A lot of those opinions will be unsolicited and can be detrimental to your relationship if you dwell on them. However many opinions people may share on the Internet or social media, no one will ever know the facts of the relationship simply because they are not in it, only you and your partner are.

2. Social pressure: Social media allows you to share the version of yourself you want to share with the public, and never all versions of yourself. This being said, your followers and subscribers only see one version of your relationship with your partner, which can put pressure on you to only show the best parts of your relationship rather than the worst. Having to live up to a certain standard for your relationship can be exhausting and strain your relationship if you start doing more things to look happy in your relationship and less things to be happy in your relationship. It’s more important to be present in your relationship rather than get lost in your relationship’s social media presence.

3. Safety: By making your relationship public, you could be letting in the wrong people. Hollywood relationships are often subject to aggressive paparazzi and stalkers. While you may not necessarily be swarmed by paparazzi everyday, you are still subject to others having too many intimate details about your relationship. This includes jealous exes, or other people who may not wish the best for you and your partner. When the wrong people know the whereabouts of you and your partner at all times, it only gives them the opportunity to troll you, making you feel the opposite of secure in your relationship, and at times unsafe.
