Should I Be Concerned That My Boyfriend Does Not Post Me On Social Media?

It’s important that you study his past behavior on social media to determine how active he is on social media and what kind of photos he posts.

A boyfriend who has social media but rarely ever posts anything on it, is not someone to be concerned about.

Especially if you observe that he has never made posts that showcase his girlfriends.

A history of sporadic posts without much of any substance that are far in between is indicative of someone who doesn’t care much for posting on social media.

Even though he is currently dating you, he isn’t prone to changing his behavior.

It’s hard and unnatural to suddenly change a behavior when that is who the person has been for a long time.

It doesn’t mean that you aren’t special to him.

Girls are much more active on social media than men are.

He is a man who isn’t used to posting on social media and has established such a history.

It’s unlikely that he suddenly changes his habitual behavior on account of having you in his life as his girlfriend.

It is unfair to suddenly expect him to completely change his social media behavior on account of him becoming your boyfriend.

It’s not personal.

You have different priorities in regards to social media.

He doesn’t think much of it, and you think much more of it.

This was who he was before you met him and who he continues to be.

Nothing has changed.

It isn’t fair to judge him about not posting you on social media when this is who he is.

In this particular scenario, he doesn’t have a history of posting all that much on his social media and when he does, he doesn’t post a girlfriend.

There is nothing to be concerned about.

On the other hand, a boyfriend who has a history of actively posting on social media and posting his past girlfriends is a circumstance that is concerning.

Assuming you have already been in a relationship with him for several months, and he has met your friends and family, there is a valid argument that he should have posted you on social media by now.

This said, sometimes, there is a change of behavior based on a negative past experience.

This is where he has posted past girlfriends on social media, only to have those relationships suffer from those postings, leading to the demise of said relationships.

This justifies a change of behavior, as he comes to the conclusion that his past romantic relationships suffered as a result of these posts and decides to stop making posts of this sort for the foreseeable future.

Ergo, his unwillingness to post photos of you on social media has more to do with a fear of jeopardizing his relationship with you, as opposed to anything nefarious on his part.

Instead of allowing yourself to get riled up over him not posting you on social media, which leads to an unnecessary argument where he becomes defensive, calmly ask him about it and hear him out.

As long as his explanation is sound, give him the benefit of the doubt.

A healthy relationship isn’t determined by what is posted about said relationship on social media.

What matters most is that he is treating you properly in the real world and showing the world that you are his only love.
