Honestly, yeah it’s controlling and very toxic. Did he cheat on you like was he talking to people or just liking photos, remember that some things aren’t what they seem. Having a talk about what each of you think is a no no in your relationship is important. But if the shoe were on the other foot how would you feel?
I definitely understand your reasons for doing that, especially considering his past history with it.
Yeah, and he might have one anyway. The more you try to control other people, the more they’ll just resent you and do what they want regardless.
But if she doesn't control him then he'll continue hurting her with other girls and one day, leaves her for them
It’s going to have the opposite effect.
Not always. Some guys really like changing for a girl because they understand her hurt and I security. The only boys who does the opposite are bad guys. If he's a good guy, he'll understand her
*insecurity
And if he’s not, nothing is going to stop him. Likewise nothing is going to stop her from doing what she wants, even as far as staying with or leaving him.
Yes, but she wanted to know opinions to base her further action
@Smartgirl_hey ❤️❤️
Yeah, and she has mine.
If you have the app and are liking pictures of attractive dudes, and you're not allowing him to have one. Than yes, you're being extremely controlling as well as Misandristic
Oh and selfish, but that's mainly a female trait
I don’t have Instagram or Snapchat only Facebook with my family on it
A female between 18-24 without an instagram? That's extremely hard to believe. But if it's actually true and not an obvious lie (I'm positive it is a lie), than it wouldn't be considered controlling.
It’s hard to believe yes but I really struggle with body dysmorphia and having social media really makes it a lot harder for me to be okay (my boyfriend knows this too which confuses me)
Do you actually have body dysmorphia? Or do you think you have body dysmorphia? Pretty sure if you did you wouldn't have a boyfriend
@asker this guy is just being a jackass for no reason. He's obviously been cheated on and now he hates all women 🤣
"oh and selfish, but that's mainly a female trait" 🤣🤣🤣 what a bitter dumbass
Yes you are being controlling. So fuckin what he likes pictures of other girls, he's with you.
If you had it your way he wouldn't be allowed to think of anyone but you?
So you're asking us if you're being controlling by... controlling and deciding what your boyfriend is or isn't "allowed" to do, because of your own insecurities? And you need to ask this question why exactly?
Girl, you need therapy. You're punishing your husband for your own problems. That's not what someone does who loves someone. That's disgusting of you. You're a possessive control freak.
I would dump his ass. I wouldn't be happy with someone that acts like that; he sounds like a cheater; and WILL cheat.
For SURE
Yeah probably a rapist to , even a serial killer
You still talking to your ex? I know 2 wrongs don’t make a right, but don’t engage in questionable behavior yourself if you don’t like to be treated the same way.
The first 2 months of the relationship I haven’t since
If you're in a serious relationship, I'd cut it off. Or tell him to use it for a business. Random trolling other women with likes to kill time won't lead anywhere good for a relationship.
one thing you are controlling, and he is acting like a moron so neither one of you deserve each other so maybe better to go your own way
yes you are
but dont worry
people in relationships trying to control each other are very common
It’s kind of controlling. He’s not communicating with them, is he?
Not on Instagram but on Snapchat I’m sure of it because there is a lot of cleared chats but girls in his recents. But I haven’t brought it up to him cause I don’t know for sure
Well, if he’s doing that, it’s reasonable to expect him to stay off it
Seems quite silly to me It's up to him whether to comply or not. You need to grow the fuck up.
Sounds like you both might have some growing up to do.
if you try to control what your man does, he's not going to want to be with you, just as you wouldn't want him controlling what you do, right?
Yeh that’s true :/ I just get so insecure and start thinking he’s doing it again when he uses it, I don’t know how to stop feeling like this
Yep. Especially if you have one yourself and are the typical thirst trap girl
I don’t
You don’t have an Instagram then.
“liking their pics after they accept his request etc” doesn’t even make sense you can’t like a pic without being accepted first
it does make sense, maybe you’re imagining a comma in the wrong place. she said that he likes their pics once he’s been accepted
A lot of girls have their accounts on public, and the girls who don’t where you need to be accepted to follow them, people don’t usually like the pics straight away unless it’s for that persons attention
Well I know I like peoples pics because I wanna know who the person is. Like if they follow me I’ll see who they r by going through their posts and I’m not wanting to give them attentipn
Yes you are
Let him go and be with someone who is okay with him liking half naked pics
If your boyfriend allows his girlfriend to tell him he can't have anything, he's not your boyfriend, but your girlfriend.
This is fkn dumb he jerks off to other girls anyway, he doesn't give a shit about this
This is different, porn is porn. These girls on Instagram he can meet and actually see
Just need help not criticism please!!
You're insane
I used jack off to girls on Facebook I knew in high school. It was just a different kind of porn for me. It was never a danger to any of my relationships.
Though every guy is different lol
