With all the rush of everyday life, it can be difficult for a couple to find the time to talk on the phone or even text. But there’s one easy way to stay in contact during even the busiest of times: trading love memes.

If you’re just beginning to date, it can help to understand each other’s sense of humor, and if you’ve already been together for a while, it can be an excellent relationship extracurricular to maintain intimacy.

The Instagram account 4relate is a perfect source for this. It regularly shares funny and relatable memes about all sorts of romantic situations!

    But the internet has entered our romantic lives for more than meme sharing. According to a 2019 survey of 4,860 Americans, social media plays a much bigger role.

    Roughly eight-in-ten social media users (81%) report that they at least sometimes see others posting about their relationships, including 46% who say this happens often, but few say that these posts affect how they feel about their own love.

    Still, some people view these platforms as an important venue for showing love and affection. This is especially true for younger couples: 48% of 18- to 29-year-old social media users say it is very or somewhat important for them to show how much they care about their significant other.

    If you're looking for more memes to send to yours, however, fire up our publication on a similar Instagram account, 'Soft and Wholesome Love.'

    nah, that's toxic and doesn't allow people to live life. if I have to be in a certain mood every time I see you, then you're the problem. people in actual relationships living life together are going to have moments where they are just around and not "noticing" each other at every turn. doesn't mean something is wrong.
