Has anyone ever had this conversation with an SO? If so, how'd it go?

I hate having my pic plastered on the interwebz. I hate people walking up to me and saying, "Oh! I saw you and so-and-so were doing this-and-that,etc.!" My personal life is my personal life, and only those allowed in should be able to be a part of it.

Is this anti-social behavior, or is this normal?

By today's standard it is antisocial behavior, but today's standard is not natural. I agree with you.

Yes I have had this conversation but only about a few things that I considered personal. "Checking us in" at some random event is not something I get worked up over. I usually tell her beforehand not to blast something all over facebook. Hasn't been a big deal.

Facebook is terrible.

I deleted my account two years ago and I haven't missed it at all.

Are you insinuating that you've had a conversation where you force your gf to choose who should woudl rather keep, you or facebook?

No, I can honestly say I have never had that convo.

Women are in constant competition with each other and when they want to proudly display they are with me so all the bitches get jealous, who cares?

I don't have a FB, but I don't mind if she puts up pics of us. She has family and friends that live far away so it doesn't seem too contrived.

I do agree that I like my privacy and maybe I am anti-social in that regard. I'm not sure what constitutes that and don't really give a shite. I don't think her posting a pic every now and then when we are doing fun stuff really affects my privacy in the grand scheme of things.

I will say that I have been in a relationship where she was all the time wanting to take a pic to put on FB or something...that is definitely annoying so I think I see where you might be coming from. Mine never got that extreme though.

I'm pretty anti-social, but I think it's a little abnormal to have your attitude.

But then I'm older and most of the pics I get tagged in revolve around my kids, and there's never any drama with FB. I only get on there to troll my conservative friends.

My girlfriend is young and wants the world to know, but I'm not too concerned about it. I considered giving her a talk about it but eh, it's the way the world is now.
