I’m sure you are far from being classed as elderly! 🙂

Nice pics go on FB… on Instagram the only ones that make it are the ones without me on them. There are many pics from events we have been at together, where lovely pictures of the two of us have been taken.. but they are never shared. I have asked outright for him to share some (e.g. a nice one of us at a friends wedding the other week…) despite agreeing, he never posted it – but he did share one of him with the groom and two of his best mates.

It’s escalated now as he is now ignoring my request to ‘follow’ his profile and has made it private. So now I can’t see what he’s posting and have been completely excluded. Meanwhile, in the last couple of weeks he has posted comments like “perfect woman!” and “wow” and emoticons with heart-eyes on pictures of complete strangers. You wouldn’t think he was in his mid thirties would you?? As I said before, apart from this one issue he really is a lovely and thoughtful guy so I hate to realise how awful this looks.

Typing all this out has made me realise however that this behaviour is really not displaying a level of respect and care for me that I expect. I may not have tackled it perfectly with my fear of conflict etc but I definitely think I have a right to be pissed off about this. It may be *only* a social media account, but it’s what it represents and says about how he is treating me. I think I’m feeling fired up enough to bring it up whatever now. He needs to know that I’m not a push-over. Being great everywhere else in our relationship is not an excuse to act like a thoughtless idiot on this occasion!
