I'm sorry this is long!
Heres the deal... I would normally ask my friends for relationship advice but I dont want bias advice, especially from single women (I've learned my lesson with that one)...Anyway...
Me and my boyfriend (he's 24..I'm 21) have been dating for almost 2 years now.. but only "offically" for about 5 months..we have a baby on the way and we're both very happy. My bf tells me that he loves me, that he wants to get married in the future, and we're even planning on moving in together after I graduate from school...HOWEVER..
His facebook status still says SINGLE and when I confronted him about it, he just took his status listing off completely [instead of listing himself as 'in a relationship' like I wanted]. ALSO. I see him flirting with other females on there.. its nothing too serious, and I know some guys still like to firlt with other women as an "ego boost" but it does bother me.
Now you may be wondering why I dont confront him about the flirtng.. and thats because he doesnt know we're friends on facebook lol I added him with a fake page and I dont want him to know I have it..we got in a fight a long time ago and he blocked me on fb [immature?...a bit]
And secondly you may be wondering why Im making a big deal over a fb staus, and thats because he lives in a different city than me, plus he only has one random picture of me and him sitting there with no caption underneath.. And he has multiple pictures of him and some of his female friends.. so as far as anybody knows- I could be anybody!

I see my guy friends who are in relationships and they are proud of it, they post multipule pictures up of them and they're girls, ect..
I'm confused!! From what I understand, we have a great relationship.
Is he trying to keep me a secret?
Does he want to be single?
Any advice?? [No stupid comments plz]

ps yes his family and guy friends all know hes in a relationship with me...Cant say the same for everybody else though..
pps Im NOT ugly! lol his dad and friends all told him I was very pretty and good catch...

You're right to be concerned. A guy who's in a committed relationship, especially with someone who's carrying their baby would normally be proud and plastering pictures of their girlfriend and telling everyone he's going to be a father. But I take it this wasn't a planned pregnancy, and so maybe he's more ambivalent than he lets on.



And with both of you not FB friends, and you sneaking a fake friend onto his, it does not sound like there's enough trust between you two.



If you two can't agree on even being FB friends, there may be a lot more that you two need to work out. Sorry, but I'm hearing a lot of warning bells here...

It sounds to me like he's trying to keep you a secret from everyone he talks to on Facebook. People will try to make you think you're crazy by saying "It's JUST Facebook", yet if it were "just Facebook" the relationship status shouldn't be a big deal. The bottom line is that he knew what you wanted - and what you wanted was a very small and simple thing. Yet he couldn't even do that? Come on. And I don't think he blocked you because you got into an argument. I think he just used that as an excuse.



If I were you, I would absolutely confront him about it. You don't have to tell him that you've been stalking under a fake profile - just tell him, "I am your girlfriend and the mother of your unborn child, and you WILL respect me. I want you to unblock me on Facebook and change your status to IN A RELATIONSHIP. If you don't think that's worth breaking up over, then I suggest you DO IT so we don't have to break up over it."

My suggestion may well be to exhibit delight in being a guy and to tutor your delight by potential of exemplifying all the main suitable factors of masculinity. Be a frontrunner by potential of occasion. Be a protector to those that want protection. tutor your potential by potential of showing braveness and resolution. handle women people with appreciate and genuineness. have confidence in your self and what you ought to grant the international. no person can permit you already know who you're different than your self. people who want to lump all adult men mutually in some adverse vogue are not to any extent further helpful than people who want to do the comparable to blacks, or Muslims, or previous people. i understand that it has gotten some undesirable press interior the years because of the fact it got here out, however the e book Iron John ought to be required examining for all youthful adult men. examining that e book made me understand that it fairly is alright to embody the flaws that make us adult men.
