My boyfriend never takes photos of me or of us together. No selfies, nothing.
But he takes them with his friends or if his goddaughter comes round and posts them all over social media . Should I say something?
Try to take some selfies of yourself, and him together, and say that you want to post them on social media, then see what he says, or does.
^^ this is the reason, if you have been with him for a short time it would make sense, but more than 2 years then its long term most likely so surely he would begin to take photos
He doesn't want to be tied down.
The problem with social media is things become very hard to get rid of once it is posted.
So like say you two had photos posted together, then broke up he probably would not want you sending said photos to his next G/F just to create drama.
Do not take it personal, he is probably like that with everyone he dates.
People do not want their past haunting them any more than necessary.
Suppose he wants to deny certain things. He doesn't want someone to just bring it up on social media ad proof that he did date whoever. We didn't have that problem when we were younger and dating.
For years they told us not to post too much RL stuff on the web. Then FB came along and encouraged otherwise. People shared too much, it came back to bite them in the ass. Now people are going back to trying to hide stuff again.
Plus as everyone knows, when you date, it affects your reputation depending on how things go/went. No need t damage the rep over something on FB.
No need to date someone if he's ashamed of her, or needs to keep it on the down low. Anyway, the funny thing is that I don't even use Facebook. I have an account where I have friended literally no one. I just pretend that I forgot about my Facebook account, and pretend I forgot my password.
He does this because dating is a risk. You let someone into your personal life. You catch feelings for someone, you go out, they fuck you over, and you get consequences (supposed abuse, slander, the friends harass, etc). There aren’t always happy break ups, and he probably wants to play it safe.
If this was a long term relationship like 2 year plus, then it might weird. Or he might be camera shy or insecure, he might not like photos of himself where people can stare at him. There are a lot of people like that. (I happen to be one, I don’t like staring people in the eyes, too spooky for me)
basically i have this thing where i try to keep god and jesus out of facebook, because i feel it is sacrilegious. maybe he thinks you are so important that he does not want to take goofy pictures of you and just keep it serious
I don't take selfies with my boyfriend/post them on social media. Mostly because if we break up, that shit is up there and I'd have to waste time tracking everything down and deleting it.
See how people are losing the art of communication! Guess just asking is out the question?
