We live and breathe in the age of social media. Everything we do to stay connected, how we want to be perceived, and feelings of accepted and wanted. I dislike this about myself.. but I cant help that I get upset when my boyfriend doesn't want to post pictures of us or me. I love when people are so in-love and are proud of who they are with want to show their person off to the world. Those sweet candid photos of her/him just being them. Adoration. (I'm not talking about over obsession where all the posts are only constantly about their significant other, that's just too much. I don't want to be those people where that's the only thing that is on their feed. Nothing wrong though if that's what a person wants to share.) It makes me feel adored, proud that I'm his, loved. I know things like this do NOT validate his feelings or my feelings but it's just one of those small acts of love language type of deal. It's not often at all we get dressed up and go out or attend and event... like we went to a wedding yesterday and he didn't post anything. I looked pretty, felt pretty, felt confident even though my hair wasn't fixed. Idk, it just made me sad. I was thinking...after the whole evening together, why? May be I'm not good enough, he tells me that I am but its like- words without action don't mean anything and actions without heart is meaningless. What we say and do should be a balance of both paralleling. Am I not worthy of you wanting to show me off to the world. Guess not. My feelings are my own. Looking at this letter from a perspective of someone whose older or more "mature" mindset is silly. This really isn't a big deal to the overall picture... but my feelings are valid. Without social media in years past, this wouldn't bother me because it didn't exist then, but because it exist and life somewhat revolves around it, it does.

For some men, its way too personal to share anything about their partners online.
Replyif he is a social media user and represents his life on social media, you should be represented and if you're not, he's hiding you for a reason.
Reply^^ this. if he's a guy who doesn't share anything personal online, no worries. if he does. he is hiding you and your relationship.
ReplyIf he is active on social media , posting other stuffs,
Then may be he is insecure about you or very personal about you. Thats not your problem. Thats his. You are pretty. :) Anyhow.
Go talk to him about it. Tell him how you feel. You are not wrong. You have a valid concern. So dont judge yourself.
