how do you guys feel if your bf continues to follow girls on insta that are our age and are obviously very beautiful & post sum bikini photos, etc. like is this not weird or is it something to just be fine with bc social media has just become like this?

It depends if he's following girls that are only posting that stuff versus people he knows that happen to post that stuff

Could be several things #1: you’re super insecure in your relationship #2: he followed them before you were dating and doesn’t care about them anymore #3: your bf is actively liking their content and is probably a complete POS and you should get rid of him

i just read your other replies and i would personally find it weird

Personal experience: Bros window shopping. Girls do it too, yes it’s weird, no it’s not exactly cheating but is a red flag. No real reason to pursue following a person you have zero relationship with or don’t intend to in the future other than rubbernecking

did he follow them before or while you guys are dating? does he personally know them? is he actively liking/viewing their stuff? do they follow him back? it honestly depends😭

Why are you even keeping track of who he follows on social media? Do you also follow him around to track who he meets on a daily basis? You either trust that man or you don’t.

It’s not people he knows, it’s random new girls

The only thing that rlly bugged me was he followed a girl he saw on the basketball team and then likes her photos now and she followed him back like I know it’s not that deep but they’re always opposite of me and so pretty 😭

while we are dating. does not personally know them. maybe has seen them around or saw them at a party but never talked or knows them. and actively likes their photos, yes. and they sometimes follow him back. I just have a gut feeling it’s because they’re attractive because they’re all pretty blondes from different colleges.

r they like “influencers” ? have u guys had a talk about this before or just about social media in general?

sorry for spamming (and not to scare you) but them being from different colleges honestly makes it worse. because if something were actually going on, you’d have no mutual friends/people you know to tell you. tbh there’s honestly no reason to follow people from different colleges, maybe that’s just me but if i don’t know them i’m not following them first

I think that’s weird if the only reason he would like them is their looks and they don’t have some talent he’s interested in or are an Internet personality that lots of people like their personality or whatever

Esp if they’re random girls and yeah not even hot celebs or influencers where you get to know them and it’s not 100% looks

ive been on both sides. definitely trust your partner but sometimes it’s just like a curiosity thing, same way you’d look at anyone else’s following just out of curiosity. sometimes you’ll find something suspicious and it just triggers something in you. i took a look once and that’s what led to me finding out i was getting cheated on 🤣 i’ve also been the one that was constantly monitored and accused of cheating constantly (i never did)

the difference is i was following guys i’ve known since elementary school and guys i go to school with and actually knew. the difference was he was following complete randos who would post ass pics every day! it’s like why notice things that could potentially be a red flag and ignore them?

No you’re not insecure, it’s called having a standard for your relationship.
