I recall starting a thread a while back about facebook causing problems in peoples relationships to which a number of people had replied saying it did raise issues and cause some problems.

Well here is an unfortunate case where facebook really has caused major issues in a relationship leading to murder:

    well it depends on the environment ie. if the police in the area/village, all have the same mentality, then the killer would get away with it. However if they are more "civilised"and dont believe this kinda thing should be tolerated, they will prosecute the guy.

    And if they do this for a cultral thing do they get sentanced like we would?

    LOL! No, thats not my religion, or Turkish. Its not any religion.

    Its probably more to do with a cultural thing, i.e. the men demand the woman be a virgin when he marries her, and if she isnt, he probs feels its destroyed his "honour/self respect" and to regain this, he must kill the woman. Its a very backwards mentality but its not linked to any religion or race, contrary to what the sensationalised reports in the western media will have you believe.

    For example, honour killings happen in muslim africa and asian, honour killings happen in Sikh and Hindu asia, honour killings happen in christian africa. Honour killings even happen in christian families throughout europe, but you'd never hear about it in the british media as it doesnt suit their agenda of portraying asians/africans etc as dark skinned, women oppressing savages.

    lol i dont know what your point is either. Put your other half back on, she makes much more sense only joking.

    Yeah things are becoming more acceptable but i dont think murder is. Maybe there is more "justification" in that people can see why someone can be pushed to such a point where they would react so unreasonably. Being from the asian community, i get the odd "honour" killing where a man murders his partner over her having an affair or summit. It does happen and whilst i dont  condone it in the slightest, i can see how sometimes people can be so overcome by emotional turmoil that they react in a way they never thought possible. British law recognises this as "a crime of passion", where someones emotional state is so affected by some external factor, that the person looses control/sanity momentarily and does something drastic. Forexample a happy married man, who one day comes home from work early to find his wife in bed with another man, you dont know how you'd react in such a situation.

    I'm due220209's other half. The face book murder thing kind of relates to the film and video games ban because this guy obviously finds it hard to distiguish reality from fiction. No sane person could ever do such a thing and its disgusting but on the other hand why has it become more "acceptable" to behave like this. The state of affairs nowadays nobody has respect for human life. I don't really know what my point is but god i wish i was bringing a child up in the fifties!

    Her husband was clearly deranged and if he is the sort of person who justifys his actions because of something like that then he sounds like he will never have remorse for what he did to her.

    Facebook can cause problems but only if you let it - if it was that much of an issue in my marriage i think i would have the sense to say i wont use it anymore.

    My heart goes out to the children i know only too well how something like that can have such devestating effects on the children that are left to pick up the pieces with so many unanswered questions.

    He should rot in prison for what he has done - but then his sentance probably wont be long enough for that!

    And perhaps one day he will feel remorse, who knows. But he will have to live with this for the rest of his life. How their daughter will ever get over this is beyond me. Blaming her FB status is a cop out. Nothing she said or did warranted him killing her in front of their child. Sick twunt!

    I can assure you they were separated at the time. FB and "old flames" had nothing to do with it. He is an evil b@stard and deserves nothing less than to spend his life in prison. My heart is with their young daughter who he robbed of a mother, and a father in one fell swoop. Ignorant, selfish, evil b@stard. RIP sweetheart.

    That story is really sad.

    I feel that Facebook can be food and bad.  Me and partner both have profiles on Facebook to stay in touch with our busy friends etc...obviously not ideal but that the way things are nowadays.  I have access to his profile and he has access to mine bacause we don't have anything to hide. That way there is no problems, in fact iv even spoken to one of his exs through facebook and she was nice and in no way interested in my bf..

    yeah same here, a lot of arguments. I also suspect she was kinda "encouraged" by old mates/lovers to walk out as she pretty much admitted to this (indirectly). Ah well sh!t happens.

    But i'd like to know if there are stats to say how many people have got back with an ex through facebook (whilst they are still in relationships)

    Not problems as such but quite a few arguments in my case.

    not sure why its taken so long, could be due to an inquest i suppose.

    But this raises the question again, how many relationships has facebook caused problems in? i suspect quite a few.
