My girlfriend doesn't want me to post pictures of us on Facebook and Instagram. I asked her why, she just said "Nothing, I just don't want it. Is that hard to understand?". What does it mean?
“Nothing, I just don’t want it. Is that so hard to understand?”Wow. Total keeper. That’s completely how I’d want to be talked to for the rest of my life… She wants you to respect her wishes that she doesn’t seem old enough to articulate, but can’t even be respectful about it?If she has any pictures of herself she posts on social media, and you have any sort of label on your relationship, then I’m going to suggest you end it promptly before you get hurt. That’s some seriously controlling behavior. If you want to be kept a secret, that’s on you.But if experience has taught me anything? Based on all the above, you’re just a placeholder while she sees if she can do better. (Whatever “better” is in her mind.) She wants as little evidence of you as possible so there’s less drama for her when she does make her move.
My boyfriend hides things i post on his facebook?
It may seem a little trivial getting worked up about something on facebook, but this is really getting to me and i wondered what others thought about it. Ive been in a long distance relationship (he lives about 300 miles away) with this guy for about 5 months now and he only recently added me as a friend on facebook. And he didn't want his relationship status on his facebook so he only added me as a friend. I noticed right away that he immediately removed the 'activity' on his wall that said he was now friends with me so that no-one else could see it but i never said anything at the time. Then when he wrote on my wall and commented on my status he removed the bit on his wall where it says that he did. Today, I uploaded a photo of a paper swan that he made for me and tagged him in it. When he went online, he didn't un-tag the picture but he did delete the post from his wall. I asked him on fb chat why he hid the picture and his exact response was: "I DIDN'T! It's still in my tagged pictures isnt it!? Why is everyone being so off with me today, i've had such a sh*t day!" Then he went offline... Am I right to be suspicious of this behaviour? It's like he just doesn't want my name to appear on his profile and i can only think of two reasons why someone would do this. Either: 1. He's ashamed of me and wants to hide me from his facebook friends or 2. He doesn't want people to know he's in a relationship because he's keeping his options open His initial reason for not adding me as a friend on facebook was because he said his most recent ex girlfriend was still obsessed with him and her dad was a psycho who would come after him if he upset her. This doesnt really make sense to me because if it was true, wouldn't he just delete his ex from facebook? We're both 19 and this is the first proper relationship i've ever been in. I'm not sure how to react. Should i confront him? and if so, what should i say?

Still hurting 8 months after the break up. What to do?
In janurary of this year my ex broke up with me, he never told me why. Though, right afterward he wanted to talk to me because he regretted it. Later on (like a month and a half) I told him that I wanted to try again if he did and he turned me down. I was so confused and hurt. He seemed like he wanted me. But then he started dating another girl which hurt me even more. And I knew then that I had to let go. So I did. I stopped checking his facebook to see if he mentioned me and I stopped talking about him. And we dont talk anymore (not since February). But somehow I still feel hurt by what he did to me. He abandon me then made me think we had hope.. then asked another girl to be his girlfriend. I'm not in denial. I know I still love him from our past relationship... but I really hate that I do. Because I know that with all the nights he's made me cry and pray for him while he was out with her he could never make me happy again. I could never look at him as the prince who saved me when I was lonely... not after all this. Our friends told me he still loved only me and i still had hope that maybe if we were together again the past would disappear.. but that was months and months ago. He never called or anything. I don't want to wait for someone thats not coming anymore. It drives me crazy to think that when my phone rings it'll be him and it never is. 8 months of waiting has worn me thin. What to do? We don't talk, I don't spy on him or anything so there are no lines to severe except one. I never got closure for being dumped and traded in for no real reason. The thing is- I won't get closure because he has his girlfriend and I feel like any words from him could rip me to shreds. All advice is welcome, merci.
Is it childish to unfriend him from facebook?
I'm 22 years old and I was seeing a guy, a 30 year old man, for the past 4 months. A few weeks ago, due to some personal circumstances, I thought I was going to be moving home permanently. Moving home would consist of moving from where I was living, to 3 provinces away (I'm Canadian)....so a pretty big move. This guy and I had our "final goodbyes" when I thought I would be leaving which were hard, at least for me, and seemingly for him (but maybe not for him?). Anyways things changed, and I've ended up not having to move. I messaged this guy to let him know things changed and I was no longer leaving the city. He didn't respond to my message for 2 weeks. I was seriously concerned something was wrong or had happened to him, since we saw each other or talked to each literally every single day. He sent me a message saying that in the day or two period between thinking I was leaving to me finding out I wasn't leaving, he started seeing somebody else. I'm not an idiot, and I know he was clearly talking to and maybe hanging out with this girl while him and I were still seeing each other (aka before I even thought I was going to have to move). He is a shitty guy, I know. Anyways we're still friends on Facebook. I know it's just Facebook but I am trying to figure this out. Is it immature of me to delete him off Facebook? I just can't handle seeing him post statuses and pictures with this girl, and I feel I could move on faster if we were no longer Facebook friends. I want to remain mature though, and don't want him to think I'm immature for deleting him. Any opinions?
Boyfriend not posting anything about us on social media? (Is this silly?)?
Well maybe it is a little silly. For example i wouldn't post pictures of my boyfriend on facebook but i would post pictures of male celebrities or something like that. I don't think this means that he doesn't love you or something like that.
What to make of a guy constantly liking and commenting on my wife’s Facebook updates?
I’m 34 and she is 32. She currently stays at home with kids while attending school online. We have gotten into a few arguments over Facebook in the past few months. This mostly stems from one guy in particular who seems to constantly like and comment on anything my wife posts. This guy is supposedly married and has kids of his own. What bothers me is not another guy doing this but more so the frequency that does not sit right in my gut. She claims that this individual has just been an online friend from the past and that the two have never met. She deems my worry and or irritation to be more a jealousy issue on my part. I argue that as a man it would seem disrespectful for me to constantly do this on another woman’s Facebook. What probably bothers me more than anything is that I find she gets unusually defensive when I bring the subject up. In her mind I just need to trust her judgment more. Thank you for any and all feedback on this issue.
What should I do if it depresses me to see that my friends on Facebook have everything? I don't have a huge sum of money, marriage, travel, good memories and happiness. How do I come out of feeling bad about myself for being broke with everything?
I have been in the same situation as yours. I used to feel so bad looking at my feed seeing all those people having so much fun but I am sitting here in my room with dirty clothes and uncombed hair. This is the period where half of my friends have gone to US for higher studies and boy oh boy my feed was flooded with pictures of their first Dunkin Donuts to road trip to JCPenny. All those check ins and all those irritating selfies got the worst out of me . I felt so worthless because they are out there in another country having so much fun but I am stuck here.Now do you really know that they are having fun ? Do you know what they are going through? Not everybody's life is filled with happiness and parties. For every Yin there is a Yang.Then I realised I don't even have to feel bad for such things because I don't want to be a part of such callous projection of my own life.You are comparing your practise session with your friend's highlights. Now isn't that unfair to do to yourself. You have your wonderful and awesome life to take care . All those new wonderful things to try out and innumerable number of things to learn.

So I suggest you to try this out.Go to your Facebook friends list and unfollow all those people who were merely your acquaintance , specially all those selfie-obsessed people.Follow nice fun pages like 9gag, some news channel pages.(I usually follow Food related pages :P)And Voila now you have a curated feed of all the things that you like the most and from the people who really matter to you . Now that's the reason why you should even use Facebook ,for SOCIALISING not for SELF - OBSESSION.
