I dont want to add husband on facebook?

Not asking if its " right" or " wrong". Im not up to anything no good. I mostly have female work friends or old school friends and just share silly memes or posts about observations, make up cat videos etc. I like having different aspects of my personality private and just dont like the idea of him making fun of my silly posts or snooping on my friends. He hasnt had Facebook in for years but now made one. I dont have my relatives on my facebook friends either. Is it normal i prefer he doesnt see my posts?

    Hoe, you ain't adding yo husband on Facebook coz you scared he embarrasses you.. You, as da hoe in question, is embarrassed by yo husband.
    Yo ass need to meditate on what you perpetuate.

    Thats kinda weird I think, why would you let friends and even work friends see that but not your husband. If you want a private account, make a private one under a fake name and post whatever. I think thats pretty offensive all those people would get to see your silly posts but not him and would probably make him feel suspicious. Are you not friends with your husband, it sounds like you have to be a certain way with him so he cant see that you enjoy just sharing silly memes and stuff sometimes.

    What types of aspects about yourself do you want to keep private? Usually in relationships, people are very open about who they are towards each other and don't feel the need to hide certain aspects about their personalities. If cat videos are enough to negatively affect how your husband feels about you, then you have much deeper issues in your relationship than being friends on Facebook.

    Why would he snoop on your friends? Is he a jealous or insecure person? If there's nothing malicious he could find by doing so, is there a reason to be worried (other than the obvious lack of trust)?

    This is just my unwarranted two cents, but I honestly wouldn't see the point in having Facebook in the first place if I was so private that I didn't want my family or husband seeing my posts, especially if they were harmless. But, FWIW, there's an option on Facebook to exclude certain people from seeing your posts.

    Anyway, it will likely come off to your husband and others as if you are hiding something deeper, such as having an affair or wanting to present yourself as something you're not (I actually knew a married woman who presented herself as a single party girl on Facebook and didn't have a single picture of her husband, or anything about him, including a relationship status; I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't even on her friends list either, to be honest; and yes, she was cheating on him). It would definitely be seen as a red flag to most people.

    The question is why can't you open up around your husband and be the same person you are at work?
    I don't know. Seems like there's some other deep rooted problems at play.

    You shouldn’t have to feel embarrassed of your ‘silly posts’ or worry that he will make fun of you. I’ve known plenty of men who seem to always be belittling and condescending towards women, they’re mostly just assholes.

    I think it's more normal to not add family than to not add a spouse, but I also think it's not normal for a spouse to act like a jerk, and make fun of your friends. If someone can't understand cat memes they can't understand me.

    However, I do have a Facebook account that is basically just a ghost town, because I'm one of those people who hasn't friended anyone. Yes, I am a weirdo, a self-conscious loner.

      Mine is the same... I still have ten people's friend requests from 2009, which I never accepted.

    Definitely not normal. If you are hiding yourself from him, that means you are afraid to be yourself around him and that's sad.

    Honestly, I get the idea of loving your husband but not wanting to get picked on sometimes. Certain subjects are for certain types of relationships depending what you know about that relationship.
    Your husband shouldn't be your 'everything', that's too much pressure on both of you. There should be some healthy level of separation and if you know that this works for your personalities in the relationship then you're doing the right thing.
    This isn't break up worthy, it's not even issue worthy. Everyone is brainwashed by social media and these silly new social rules. Plenty of people don't include their so's in all sorts of stuff, why is fb any different?

    Normal or not, it isn't a sign of a healthy relationship.

          At least my name sounds somewhat normal.

          I actually use this name if I'm buying something online and they use spam callers so if I get a random call and the first thing they say is "Lloyd?" I just immediately hang up and block.
