You
enter into a relationship so quite naturally on Facebook, you update your status to
“in a relationship” and you get that pretty little pink heart next to your
relationship status. You post pictures
of each other on your pages. You share pictures of the things you are doing and
the places you go together. You
basically share your life together on Facebook. So what happens when the relationship
comes to an end? If it’s a bad breakup, then most likely you are going to
instantly (or within a few days) update your status to “it’s complicated” or “single”. So what happens to all those pictures that
you and your ex took that are posted all over your page? The pictures you were
tagged in and all the memories of happier times. Well, well, well……This argument came up between a
friend and I. We totally disagree and I
just want to see what thoughts you may have on the issue. So, with that being
said, is it alright to leave the pictures on your page just for the memories. The
main question is.... What
happens when you get into another relationship?? Do you think
your new woman/man is going to want to see pictures of you and your ex in your
“My Photos” album?
Or is it cool to leave them there and just explain that
“Hey! Those pictures are old!” Would you
feel comfortable dating a guy or woman who has his ex all over his Facebook page……
What are your thoughts??? Converse with me!! It’s the first blog post on my
latest blog…. Conversation with Collie!!!
I do not want to see old pictures of her and her ex and i would not keep any old pictures of me and my ex. I am the type that feels when it is over it is over i dont want to see pictures of you and I. I am trying to forget you even exist...LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! So do you think you would keep the pics if you still had feelings for that person. At what point do you take them down? Once the relationship is over....I don't feel the need to keep the pics posted. I guess I like to keep it moving! :)
DeleteMy husband recently added a pic of only him and his ex taken at his daughters wedding on his Face book's pics. I. Want it deleted does that seem reasonable? He was tagged by his daughter but I still want it off.
DeleteThis is a hard one. Mainly because this is a picture that was taken at their daughters wedding. Its understandable that the daughter wants a picture of her parents together as part of the wedding photos. Was this particular picture tagged along with other wedding pictures? Have you spoken to him about how you feel. If this was just another everyday photo and not a wedding photo then I would feel differently. Being that in this situation its a wedding (their daughters) I don't think you should be upset. But again, I don't know the history between you all, and it could run deeper than what is on the surface. Just talk to him and let him know how you feel.
DeleteOut with the old and in with the new is what I say. The only way to move on is the get rid of and forget about the past. There is no way I can start a relationship with soneone who has pics of their ex on Facebook. Clean that album out. Ain't nobody got time for that!
ReplyDeleteI agree Mia! Ain't nobody got time for that!!!
DeleteAnd its even worst when they never update their status either. So its like their status still say theyin a relationship and they still have all the pics of your ex all over their page......yet you trying to date someone else. It would feel to me that the person hasn't moved on! But that's just my personal opinion !
It's NOT YOUR FACEBOOK PAGE...You can't make someone change things that aren't yours. 1st what's your status?? Trust me your significant other will respect you enough to change that. But if he doesn't does that mean he loves you less? NO it doesn't!! Be SECURE ENOUGH in your relationship to let your significant other have his own social media space!!! Love Yous!!!
ReplyDeleteWell Tosha if that man still want to keep pictures of his ex up then he not really feeling you...ijs from a man point of view...he might need to gone back to her.
Deleteand No it dont mean he love you less just mean he dont really love you at all...my two cents..i am done...pewnnnnn
DeleteI don't think it has anything to do with being insecure. I think its just a part of respect and it also is a determination about how serious you are about your new relationship. But to each his own. If the new person doesn't have a problem with the pics then I guess its all good. But in my opinion at some point, the pics need to come down. Its a simple click and freaking DELETE!!! LOL!!!
DeleteI don't believe that means he's not feeling me! But if I've gotta MAKE him take them down then I already know the deal!! But I wouldn't know because I don't believe in being FB friends with your SO!
DeleteI don't see anything wrong with the pics, as long as it's not your profile pic with the 2 of you. I do see where it could be an issue though, I remember the day before I got married and Dre found some pics that I had of me and some exes (I had them packed to discard, but he found them)and he wasn't happy about it and me saying "these don't mean anything to me" really didn't sit well with him because they were still in my possession. As for FB, I think as long as they are not pictures of the ex all snuggled up on you then it shouldn't be a problem, no man or woman wants to see pics of you and the ex, it has nothing to do with be insecure either...just being respectful. I was on a friend's (whom I shall remain nameless)page the other day because she recently got engaged and the dude she is engaged to has a pic of the chick he was engaged to last year on his page, I was like WTH...but it's not my business. If she's ok with it, then cool!
ReplyDeleteWow! I would definitely NOT be ok with that!! But if she like it I love it! I do understand that you may have old pics of your ex somewhere on your page because you could actually still be friends. But if your new girlfriend,boo, wife, etc has a problem with it and you are in a new relationship, why keep them there. And if the other person has a huge problem with taking them down then I would question the feelings they still have for that other person. Ijs!
DeleteHonestly I'm not big on posting a lot of relationship pics anyway. I will do it from time to time but I don't flood my page with it. I mean think about it... The more pics you post the more you have to delete if it all goes sour. And you may call me pessimistic but I call it being prepared. So to answer your question.. Hell No!! Aint nobody trying to see they Boo all cuddled up with they Ex.. If they really need to keep them pics that bad.. They better save them sh!ts to a hard drive and hide em somewhere.. Lol!! Thats my opinion..
ReplyDeleteI am literally LMAO but thanks for being so honest! I think that's a great idea to save the pics you want to a hard drive and keep them in a file on your computer. I have no problem with that because I myself have pics on my computer stored safely in a file. I'm not posting them or leaving them posted on social media especially when that's the place you promote whats going on in your life currently. So basically let your current be shown and put your past in a file....somewhere else.....out of sight! LOL!

ReplyDeleteWell, well, well.. This is hilarious!!!! Ive often wondered the same thing. Me... im not big on posting pics of me and my significant other all over Facebook. Hell thats no ones business who im dating and what we are doing. However, ive been in a relationship where HE posted pics of us together. Once it was over, I demanded his butt to take the crap down. If he did not i reported the picture lol (was that mean of me lmao??). Once i say its over, its OVER. I dont want any memories of him via pictures on FB. Folks are nosey and will automatically assume that we are still together after viewing his pics on my FB page because HE tagged me in them.
ReplyDeleteI have seen my friends leave pics of their exs on their page and I questioned them. It leads me to believe they are still together if pics are still floating around on a public site. Just my thoughts!!!
It seems that he was not ready to let you go.....which goes back to what I previously stated. If someone is not willing to remove the pics then it seems they may be still emotionally involved in the relationship.
DeleteAnd yes, if I'm still seeing pics and I thought you and that person was done, then I would probably question if you all were still together.
Well he needs to let go... i cant help his emotions lol...
