Is it a red flag if my girlfriend gets insecure or jealous if I like a post on instagram of a girl who happens to be our mutual friend?

Does this make her clingy? Toxic? Because this really made me feel uneasy.

Does she act more angry and nasty, or more hurt and vulnerable?

Rampant insecurity is a tough thing to deal with in a partner. If you love her, and she's sweet in general, you can try to build her confidence. But if she's getting angry and offended about all sorts of stupid shit that is ridiculous and unwarranted...

Well what kind of photo is it that you’re liking?


And has she told you before that she doesn’t like it and it upsets her , and it’s something you just keep doing anyway?


I’m kind of tired of women being called clingy and toxic for being bothered by certain things in a relationship just because you may not understand it. Men have things that bother them as well that they wouldn’t appreciate us doing, so you should respect her enough to stop if it’s hurting her.

She only told me about it today and west hesitant about telling me because she said its stupid. I kept reassuring her that she can tell me. she's a mutual friend of our's who recently got engaged to a mutual friend of mine. The photo was of her cutting a bday cake with her fam basically. Thats the back drop.

Was hesitant*

It can be, but not why just stop doing things that trigger her?

Bro its a mutual friend of our's. The photo i like was nothing more than her cutting her bday cake with her family members. And she brought it up yday only. I don't know whats the big deal. she's a mutual friend of our's and coincidentally she's engaged to a childhood friend of mine. So clearly there's no means for being jealous.

Thanks

[Asker]

Thanks for?

Yeah, that's pretty weird. Unless they are inappropriate pictures. But if it's just a normal post then that's definitely crazy behavior.

[Asker]

Exactly my though

It is a red flag if you are on Instagram, period.

[Asker]

That is irrelevent to my question.
