My boyfriend never posts pics of us?

Question

We've been dating for almost 7 months and very much in love. But he hasn't posted a single pic of us. All his friends with girlfriends already have. Even one guy posted one after 3 months dating. I know i shouldn't care but it bothers me. Should i ask him to or is that too much? He did put my initials in his instagram bio when i asked though.

Is it REALLY that important for you to 'show off' him or for him to 'show you' off? Some people just want privacy. If you don't trust him, then don't be with him. You say it bothers you, but why does it bother you? Everybody is not going to think like you, or what to do what you do. You should care and like him for who he is, not the status you want everybody to know. Should you ask him? It's up to you. Whatever makes you go to sleep at night. But don't expect everybody to date the same way you do. It's very clear that he doesn't want everybody knowing his personal business. If you have to ask him, it's because he cares enough about you to just do it and tolerate it. Please understand that he may not be interested in those things at all. Putting all of that is more of a female thing. And less of a guy thing unless he personally values or wants to.

Many people are just private I personally did the same for the longest time. It wasn't that I did not like my boyfriend but I just like to keep things private. Does the world need to know im with someone? What if it doesn't work out I have to change my status and for everyone to be in my buisness. No thanks
So it's not always a bad thing dnt tell him give him time because if you say something he might take it as nagging or too clingy give him his time

Posting pics with girlfriend means following
1) the boy is open-minded
2) his family is open-minded
3) he is not flirting you
4) he feels great to have you
5) his friends will not hit on you
6) relationship will last longer
7) the girl and her family is also open-minded

These are some of the few characteristic that can be inferred... just an opinion

Some people just aren't interesting in putting things on social media, I've noticed that a lot of guys aren't as into that stuff as girls are. Don't take it personal.

Guys don't put as much value into this kind of thing as you women do so you CAN NOT take this personally, nor does it "mean" anything as far as his feelings for you or the relationship. Not only do we not care about pictures usually in general, we care even less about social media and "broadcasting" it. We view it more as personal/private and nobody's business. This is the major difference between guys and girls. Women want to "tell the world" when they're in a relationship, guys are the total opposite. We think/feel it's private and nobody's business. But it means nothing as far as our feelings for you go, nothing at all!

In my opinion any man who does not post a photo of you and him being together for almost 7 months there is something wrong for sure.

There are multiple possible reasons why. He could be embarrassed of the photos of you and him together, the quality of the photos of you and him together, the photos are sexually explicit and not fit for social media, he does not want to post it on social media as he is pressing the flesh with another girl and he does not want her to know you are with him or simply he is not interested in posting any photos of you and him together. If all else fails, simply ask him why.

Maybe he wants privacy so that way nobody trys to jump in and start any sort of drama or maybe he is afraid of being hurt because of his past relationships.

Just because he doesn't post you doesn't automatically mean he is cheating on you it's bad to jump to conclusions without thinking about his perspective on things.

My boyfriend doesn't post me but I post him and he isn't off cheating on me with anyone he just wants privacy guys are simple creatures they aren't like us females so think about it before just assuming the worst.

ProssimaFermata · Answer

I don't post things. I don't post pics of me and my girlfriend. I hate social media. I don't think relationships are defined by what others think about it, so I would never post.
Cut him some slack and talk to him, maybe he doesn't want personal things being public

LunaJ · Answer

always ask him, tell him when something "bothers" you. communicate and don't make ideas about "omg why he's acting that way"

levantine99 · Answer

Mine doesn't even have social media. Posting pics is narcissistic "likes" fishing. it doesn't represent us as a couple and we don't want to go with the flow.

Been with my girl 7 years and deleted Facebook cause she botched about the same. So I don't have anything to post to. Problem solved.

badnews · Answer

I've never posted pics of any of my girlfriends on social media. It's just because I'm a private person. My question to you is, why is it that important?

Redstang88 · Answer

A lot of guys (and girls) just don't want their private life all over the internet. I know couples that have been dating or even married for +5 years and have little to no trace of it in online

Julien1210 · Answer

I personnaly don't like expose my life. I'm with my girlfriend for more than a 1 year and i haven't posted a pic of us, that's nothing to do with my love for her

Be Happy that He enjoys Your relationship Just For you two and He is Not seeing IT as something to Show off

My boyfriend was the same. But that's cause he's a private person. I found it weird cause I like showing off my partner.

Most of the guys dont like to post things online. Posting a pic together on social media doesn't increase your love. If he loves you so much he will show you in other ways. 😊

bwinbig_87 · Answer

he's waiting for the okay, imho. I know id wait. But hell, i would have at least asked my girlfriend by then.

X9MikeHoncho · Answer

Maybe he feels that your worth it enough not to post you everywhere like a Xerox garage sale sign.

desireee512 · Answer

Maybe he isn't about posting u on social media. Not everyone likes posting pictures of their boyfriend or girlfriend

Some guys don’t feel it’s necessary to post every personal thing on social media, even just pics don’t seem like necessary, just ask why he never did but it’s probably nothing
