How to get my bf to take off his pic with his female friend from his fb profile?

Question

My bf's facebook profile picture is him holding his female friend. He has had this pic on for a long time, before I met him. But I think it's about time for him to take it off. It's just annoying and disrespectful to me. Sometimes I want to change my facebook profile pic to my pic with him, but every time I see his profile pic, I always see his female friend laughing at me. How can I get him to change a new facebook profile pic? I don't want him to delete the pic, I just don't want him to have the pic as his profile pic. Everyone thinks that she's his gf, not me. And I'm not happy about that. Please help!

Answer 1

Perfectly valid reason to be jealous! He might have forgotten about the picture, but if he's on Facebook often, it means he looks at it all the time. Could be that he thinks it's the best picture of him. Has he noticed you being jealous in the past? Maybe he doesn't think it's a big deal to you!



Ask him about it and let him know you want to change your picture to the one you share with him. Maybe he will do the same!

Answer 2

Too me this wouldn't be an issue...it's facebook... But I can kind of understand what you mean. Why don't you suggest getting some pictures taken together? Maybe professionally or in a booth. He may just like the pictures you guys took together and update his Facebook.

Answer 3

Take a happy snap of the 2 of u togetha and ask him to put it as his fb pic. Don't even mention the other photo. Just say he looks really good in this new one and he could use it as his facebook pic

Answer 4

I think by telling him you think its fine for the pic to be there as she is a longtime friend, but you think it should be a picture of the two of you, or just him, as his profile pic, is totally reasonable.



If you were demanding he get rid of the pic entirely, it would be unreasonable, and in my opinion, grounds for a breakup. Women who can't accept their boyfriends having female friends are basically worthless, but you sound like you are totally reasonable. By stating your case, including being completely reasonable about him keeping the pic, just not as the "main" picture, he should either agree with you, or you should get rid of him.

Answer 5

The only thing that I can say is to walk up to him and ask him '' Hey (name) i was looking at you fb profile pic and I was wondering if you could change it.'' if he says no say this '' how about you hold me and take a pic like that'' that should do the trick good luck

Answer 6

I would dump my bf. I can't stay with someone who promises and brakes the promise. Only on certain circumstances can I forgive them after the first mistake, but once you commit that mistake a second time, you are showing that you still haven't learned and that you will never learn from your mistakes. This guy isn't healthy for a relationship, so don't stay with him.

Answer 7

take control hun get a pic of you two and give it to him as a fb profile pic if hes happy to still keep the one he has then put one of you and another guy on yours if its good for the goose and all or tell him you dont do jerks your far to mature to have your so called bf to have another pic of a different girl with him and not you and rest your case with dumping his @$$ dont put up with nothing but decent towards you and hes just dis respecting you and worse thing is everyone else knows it but you,x

Answer 8

Stop worring about it, and go ahead and change your pic. If you change yours he might get around to changing his. If he still doesnt, take some pics together and find your favorite, and mention to him that you think it would look good as his FB picture. Good Luck hun.

Answer 9

Just tell him how you feel and if he do not respect you enough to take it off. T hen you need to re think on how true your relationship is. I feel when you start a new chapter in your life you should leave the old one forever.

Answer 10

ok sweetie, I am 60 yrs old, and my favorite picture of my husband of 40 yrs he is standing next to a girl in Thailand taken when he was in the service. We were engaged at the time. I never saw it as a threat or disrespectful. As a matter of fact I respected him enough to recognize it as a part of his history and he loves me for never asking him to get rid of it.

Answer 11

just talk 2 him n ask him 2 take it off n if that don work take a picture w/ him n tell him wouldn't u rather have this pic w/ me ur gf on ur ur profile??? n if that don work either post a pic w/ ur guy friend on there. hahaha. hope i helped n that it all works out!!!

Answer 12

Well you can go over his house and go to his facebook account he probably has it saved, or if it really bothers you which it seems it does you should just talk too your boyfriend about it. If he really loves you he will take that picture off and put a picture of him holding you. If he doesn't then that just shows he doesn't like you that much.

Answer 13

tell him



i like u and i trust u that ur not cheating at all but, i saw a pic on facebook im not comfortable with. if u dont mind then can u do something about it, im not telling u to delete it.

Answer 14

dont do it in a rude wayy

dont even make it seem like you want him to change ittt

like take a picture with him, and comment it like

aww this is cute, make it your profile picture babee:)

that way he wont think anything bad of it





hope i helped

Answer 15

send him a great pic of himself, or of the two of you together and tell him that it would make a great pic for his profile. If he doesnt get the hint, just tell him - be honest. Tell him it is hurting your feelings.





good luck to you

Answer 16

take a really cute pic of the 2 of you and be like omg this is the best, u should make it ur profile pic... hint :)

Answer 17

Just calmly tell him how you feel about it and ask him to remove it. If he refuses ask him why. If you don't like his explanation, you may want to rethink your relationship. He's hanging onto an old relationship that supposedly ended when you came along. That is neither fair nor respectful to you.

Answer 18

If he's had it up for awhile, then it's not there to hurt you. If you want to change your pic just because... you're intentionally trying to get a rise out of him. Just ask him if he has any recent pictures of the two of you? Ask him to put it up. There shouldn't be any problems...

Answer 19

take a really cute picture of you guys on his camera/phone. then if its on the phone send it to the email. then upload on facebook. hint to him by saying "omg thiis is soo cutee put it as your facebook profile picture" guys are so stupid that they'll fall for it and that picture will be off (:

Answer 20

I dont know if you would be ok with this, but take a picture with him, thats fairly sexy, so he can show you off to all his freinds and fellow "girls" who think they have a chance. If he doesnt post that up there, i dont know what kinda guy he is.

Answer 21

girlfriend just ask him to take it off. Then suggest that he put a pic of the two of you for his profile.hope this helps.

Answer 22

How about you put one of the both of you on your facebook and see if he takes the hint, if he doesn't which is highly likely, call in the big guns, FRIENDS!

Answer 23

be forward with him....



if you try to slip it on and trick him he will get offended that you didn't come to talk to him about it bothering you. If you find yourself struggling to solve this problem than the other conflicts down the road will only make things harder for the both of you

Answer 24

tell him you dont like it it makes you feel bad and its disrespectful and how would he feel if u had a pic of u straddling some sexy dude. dont compromise tell him u dont feel comfortable and u feel disrespected. i had the same prob except my bf did it w supermodels and i told him to take it off cuz it was crap and i did jus that and he changed them.

Answer 25

Nothings gonna change unless you say something to him.

He should understand as long as you understand his reason of the picture, and be nice when telling him about it.

Answer 26

Have you told him how much it irritates you? Best way to begin solving any problem, is by communication. You are going to have to learn to speak up when you have a boyfriend.

Answer 27

Remove him from your facebook then you dont have to look at it, then when he complains tell him youll add him as a friend when hes changed his pic. simple.

Answer 28

Ask him, to move it to a section labeled pics, with friends...



or have him add a label that says with friend..







honestly, this shouldn't be difficult, because he'll understand...





...another thing you could do, is go out, take a TON of pics with him...and , naturally, chances are he'd add that one...

Answer 29

Tell him tthat you really don't feel comfortable with it, ask him how he would feel if he saw you close to another guy in a photo. Bet you he wouldn't like that!!!! Try it just tell him how you really feel!

Answer 30

Offer to take some new pictures of him for his profile, either with or without you. That way, he has incentive to replace it, and you don't have to make a big deal out of the situation. (If he balks, then you two can talk.)

Answer 31

lol dont be that jelous..

u upload a pic or urs with some guy...

he will definately take his pic off the Facebook...

Answer 32

Doesn't matter what everyone else thinks, you know she's not his girlfriend and that's all that should matter. It's FaceBook, grow up a little bit sweetie, it's a picture of a girl that he's friends with. You're over-reacting.

Answer 33

Take a cute pic with him, and then say "aww, hun, we should put this as our matching profile pic"

Answer 34

Listen up girls!



Guys can actually have friends that are chicks, and we don't HAVE to **** them.



Leave him alone, or he will resent you for annoying him about something that is totally harmless.

Answer 35

Just ask him,Good Luck Wish you the Best

Answer 36

get a little pissed at him

or take a picture with a guy friend and put it as your default profile picture

good luck

Answer 37

i have the same problem but differently, my bf has his x's id in his wallet and im scared to tlk to him about it cuz i dont want to sound demanding..but talking to him its da best thing you can do..

Answer 38

Ask him if he is still emotional in any ways towards his former girlfriend

Answer 39

Take a picture with him, then maybe he will use that as his profile picture!

Answer 40

Ask him and tell him it bothers you.

Try not to be so insecure because of facebook.

Answer 41

put up a picture of you and some guy (friend, family w.e)

then when he says "take it off" just point out his pic

Answer 42

well u dont want to appear controlling, and you cant MAKE anyone do anything. but if he really cares about your feelings you should only have to tell him it bothers you and he should get rid of it, if he dont then he dont really care bout ur feelings

Answer 43

tell him exactly how it feels for him to have it like that, if he really likes you he will change it without question.

Answer 44

if its been on for awhile, just write "i think its time for a new profile pic, that one's been up for too long"
