Do you consider it immature to go "Facebook Official" at the start of a new relationship? Or do you view it as a necessary expression of love and commitment?
Do you think going "Facebook Official" is immature?
No, I don't even consider it an expression of love. I just think its a necessary step one should take so that you can say 'Hey, don't try to date me i'm already taken'. If I want to get sweet on a girl I always check their status to see if they're single because its easier than awkwardly asking 'hey are you single?' & exposing my intentions inmediately.

I think that the designation of a relationship as "official" is quite silly.
Me and my boyfriend didn’t put our relationship on Facebook for a bit. It just meant now everyone knows... didn’t make it official it was official the moment I said yes to being his girlfriend 😂
Also I get a few strange men messaging me on Facebook wanting dirty pics... that’s pretty much the only reason why my relationship status is public

It is not necessary. If one is mad because their partner is not "declaring" their love, they have trust issues. They should talk about this issue with them. And the other side doesn't have to be so stubborn, if it makes your loved happy and more secure then do it for their sake.

It's not necessary, I just find it cute. And it's kind of smug I guess. But I liked announcing on Facebook that my boyfriend and I were together and having our friends and family send us well wishes and congratulations, and having it there on the timeline to look back on.

I don't like it, my ex boyfriend made us official on facebook as soon as we started dating. So my mom found out I had a boyfriend through facebook before I even called her or introduced him. It was weird.

I don't think it's immature but I think it's unnecessary. No one that I know really uses Facebook anymore. Except my parents and their friends.

Yes, it is immature. I'm barely on FB or any social media, so I don't think it's necessary to have to post, "I'm taken". If I know we're together and he knows we're together. I don't care about anyone else.
-
I don't think you should go Facebook official if one partner sees it as necessary and gets all up tight if the other partner doesn't want to, that just seems like a sign of intense insecurity to me.

Neither really. I don't see why it would be immature but I also don't think it's at all necessary. My partner and I had been together for years before we put anything on facebook.

I don't think it's immature on it's own. It only becomes laughable if the couple is using facebook to determine how much their S/O loves them.

I think viewing it as anything more than a status update is immature.

Why is it immature or mature?
People pay too much attention to Facebook. -
I dont find it "immature"
I just dont really see it being 100% necessary to prove your love and commitment - 1.5K opinions shared on Dating topic.
I wouldn't do that on social media. I don't see it as immature, but more als unnecessary and just like why should you?

I never had facebook. I found it immature long time ago.

Just setting it up on FB isn't immature, but saying it makes it "official" is.

Yes and I could not get into a relationship with a girl who expected me to do that

Yes and no.. In most cases it's really insecurity, the need to show to others that he's token
-
It's not important to me. If girlfriend like that I have nothing against. If she doesn't want to post it on Facebook, I'm OK with that too.
-
Why is it immature? It just lets friends and acquaintances know what's happening in your love life.
-
It's mostly for attention I see really no point in rushing to announce it on Facebook at all.
-
Not immature.
think it just depends on the two people involved if the person didn't want to make our relationship public personally that would be a big deal to me as i don't want to be a secret. - 4.8K opinions shared on Dating topic.

what i learned during the last year probably is: the less people know about your happiness, the less will try to ruin it
-
Completely not necessary. Plus I don't have Facebook so I don't have that problem anyways
