jealousy and facebook
post #1

Hey everyone. I feel really dumb for putting this out there but my ex still has a bunch of pictures on her facebook page from when she went on a casino trip with her ex boyfriend. Her ex was a tall fella. When I asked her about it she told me to stop being jealous because what her and her ex had was in the past and that those pics are a part of her past and she likes to see how far she's come.

 

I know I may be an idiot because they broke up 2 years ago and I have been her boyfriend for a year now, but I feel she keeps those pictures up becuase they look better together. Her ex is more attractive and has a better physique.

 

Please go a little easy on me. I'm not as good looking as her ex and I feel like I am going a little insane.

Grow a pair and stop stalking your girlfriend's facebook. You have her already! If she doesn't have any pics of you guys together up, I would be alarmed though, but that's just me...

I can't believe you're even debating this. The red flag is her not populating her photo albums of you two but do you flaunt your relationship on social media? That isn't a good idea to begin with. You don't want people knee deep in your business.

Why the hostility? You are obviously insecure just like the OP. There is no reason why anyone should have to erase their past on their SM profiles just because they're seeing somene new. You have no idea why they've kept the pictures up. Maybe it is because they want to see how far they've come, or maybe they want to reminse on old times. Do you have your high school yearbook? Do you ever look through old photoalbums (if you're old enough)? Do you ever look for old clips on youtube?

 

None of this means that you want to actually go back to that time. She's obviously moved on from her ex if she's with you. If you feel some kind of way about her not having your pics up then you should express this to her and let her know how important it is to you. Just don't smother her with this stuff. The last time a woman needs is an insecure man and becauase we're short it would be two strikes against us.

I read articles about this and came across different cutoffs in print, but never heard anyone comment about it directly.

Thought this would be interesting the share.

The Facebook Dilemma

You've all lived it: you're scrolling along on Facebook and one of your friends has posted a meme slamming short people.  For me this morning it was a triple whammy:  One post was "You've gotta hand it to short people...'cause they can't reach it."  Then came a photo posted by my high school classmate who was 6'6" and a basketball "hero": a basketball friend of his who is 6'9", and the comments like "WOW. I thought you were tall." and then a photo of my son and his high school chums from nine years ago, and all the gushing comments about one of his buddies who is also 6'9":  "Look at him, he's so tall...."   

So, here's the deal, guys:  Don't comment.  Just don't.  We can't say anything publicly without making it worse.  On a public forum like Facebook, silence is your biggest ally.  Here's why: Once you say something, everyone else feels compelled to jump in and it becomes a discussion that only make it worse.  You'll get trite comments from a well-meaning old woman like "Good things come in small packages." and you'll get slammed by big guys who just add insult to injury: "Just get over it, hunh? Stop whining."

So, if you feel insulted by something, here's my advice:  private message the friend who posted it and politely, firmly point out to them that you found it hurtful, not funny.  You might mention that it is socially unacceptable to tease people about being fat (which they can change if they try), but that short people, especially men, are still considered open game by others.  It's rude, hurtful, and totally unnecessary.  I did that once, and the friend deleted it and apologized saying that she had never thought about it that way.  We're still good friends.  I handled it privately in a calm, mature way.  That's our best choice.

Don't unfriend anyone. 

Don't take the bait. 

Don't return insult for insult.

Above all, don't let their boneheaded post ruin your day. Your good friends and family love you for who you are, what you do, and how you treat them. They respect you when you accomplish things in life, despite being short which puts you at a distinct disadvantage all the time.

And just keep scrolling.

Jealousy seems to effect taller people...

This picture sums up how people act when someone has what they don't. This dude may be on the shorter side but he has the body many men dream of having.
