People face the end of their marriage for any number of reasons, but there have been certain causes that have become trends over time that have been identified.  In the emerging world of technology, there appears to be a new trend that’s leading to San Diego divorce cases and divorce filings all over the world – the use of social media Web sites.

According to several experts in the field, Web sites such as Facebook are leading to a high number of divorce filings simply because these social networks provide people with an opportunity to reconnect with people from their past like never before.  In addition, these Web sites provide a means for meeting new people that would never have been encountered in the past.

It all breaks down to mean that a progression often takes hold.  Someone connects with someone else, emails and photos are exchanged, and the situation develops from that point until an existing marriage is irreparably broken and a divorce filing ensues.  While some may dismiss this notion as a fad or folly, the estimated statistics available do not seem to support this dismissal.

According to some experts, as many as one in five new divorce cases that are filed occur because of something that originated on Facebook or other social media Web sites.  In addition, a recent poll of family law attorneys showed that more than 80 percent of respondents view the social media revolution as an exploding cause for divorces being filed.  No one seems to expect this trend to slow down anytime soon.
