FACEBOOK is driving me crazy!

Nope. If my husband's Facebook page said he was single and there were no pictures of us, there would be hell to pay.

Well, I don't know to be quite honest. I think Facebook defaults to single. If one didn't pay a lot of attention to adding information to one's profile I could see how it might be overlooked.

Sure, I'll give you that. I would gently offer to show him how to adjust his relationship status. If he declined to do anything about it, we would have a problem.

The way I see it, this girl's bf isn't really her bf.

u didn't experience something even worse. I once left my ex one msg like" goodnight baby" when we were dating. And then he deleted it!! Ridiculous!! he was kinda embarrassed that we were dating I guess. Now we broke up cuz he didn't want to have a serious relationship with me after dating for 6 months.
Leave him. This is a red flag if he doesn't want tell the world that you guys are dating.

I agree that social networking sites like myspace and facebook do more harm than good, especially for women.

But for a man, they are the proverbial candy store for players. If I were a player, I could probably get laid by a different MySpace girl every week without ever leaving the comfort of my living room. All it requires is an attractive profile and a little charm.

Your boyfriend is trying to create the illusion on Facebook that he is very popular with girls ... and that he is available. Plain and simple.

His explanation that he doesn't update FaceBook as the reason your pictures aren't there is totally bogus as he always finds time to post his party pics.

There are more red flags here than there were on the Kremlin ... call him on it!

I see it the same way but shit he aint had to kill her. It's just not that serious.

[Gigabitch]

Agreed. That's some crazy shit.

[Petit Papillon]

And I know why he doesn't want that I've been in this situation before and let's say... Your bf is just trying to be a single in his friend's eyes. To You he can say everything bla bla... If he would consider You as a gf, there wouldn't be a problem to change the status and post pics with You. Face the truth! He's talking bullshit! Leave this piece of crap NOW.
Well You can say that he's different... but belive me,he's not. So stay in this dream.But You will wake up, sooner or later.And than You will laugh,how blind You were.
Ciao , PP

she should break up with him???????????? what?

my ex nudged me to say i was in a relationship on facebook, i thought it was silly but i did it for him since it seemed to mean so much to him.

now people i wouldn't do it again. i don't want every single one of my friends on facebook (some i haven't seen in years) knowing when i'm in a relationship and more to the point when i'm broken up!!! any future partners will not be forcing me to add that little piece of info on to my profile unless it's a serious (we're having kids or gettin married) relationship

and if he gets all 'its facebook or me' well thats just downright stupid and he can go on his merry way since i don't want a bf thats anal about such stupid things

but thats just me i guess

Sad thread. Facebook running people's love lives.

[Gigabitch]

It's not Facebook's fault. That's like blaming your boyfriend's phone if you find nude pics of other women on it.

There is a problem here about how this guy presents himself as single to everyone when he is actually in an LDR with someone.

i love my facebook and myspace. myspace i use for storing pictures, and facebook, i only check to plan events with friends. i think it depends on the person's state of mind and the level of respect for their SO to abuse those websites.

I avoid Facebook, etc. Several years ago, I "heard" that employers may look at that stuff. I have seen professional students photos of drinking and partying. Doesn't look good for those students who were in pharmacy. I remember that. I don't use Facebook, Myspace, LiveJournal, Flickr, Reunion.com etc because I have no desire for them. I've had friends ask me for these things but I'm not interested right now. I may one day but it looks like too much drama for me. I don't want anyone to keep up with me. If you do then join a social network.

Posting on LF is as open as I am going to get online.

Kb97, if I were him I would not post pictures as well. However, he is posting pictures but not of you. That's very telling of his character. If you can't take that hint then you may have more issues.
