    Do you know for a fact they are married? Lol. I changed mine to married a while back because a bunch of guys kept trying to hit on me and it was getting on my nerves. (Not that it stopped them but yea). My sister is married and doesn't have a ton of pictures on her page of her husband but I don't really think it means anything. He won't have a fb because he feels like it causes to much drama. (I totally agree tho). No idea really

    I've noticed this trend. There are some female friends I have on facebook that are married. I have looked through their profiles and thorugh their pics, yes I am a picture lurking hound (LOL), and with many of them that are married, they do not have a single pic of their husband. I find that weird.

    What do you think? Does it mean anything?

    I know there could be several reasons for it. Husband doesnt want to be part of it, their page is their page, or they aren't into hubby. I don't know. Just seems odd. I mean, it's an overwhelmingly large amount of them.

    Any perspective on it? I'm not going to run out a hit on them, or send pics of my junk or anything weird like that, I'm just curious if any of the women here do that too and what the reason is?

    Thanks.
    I know alot of my friends wives are on FB. but many of my guy friends dont want to have anything to do with it. Infact some of them even joke with me that if your over 30 and on FB. your a loser since im on FB. until I joined last summer I didnt want my wife even mentioning me or our daughter on it. Or things like were gonna be at out house in Fl. for the next 3 weeks etc. The only reason I joined is because I kept being asked by clients etc. if I had a FB. page so I joined, and have since come to enjoy it. Sorry dude, try marriedcougars.com etc.

    Some people just

    A. Don't like having pictures taken.
    B. Don't want their pictures on FB/online.

    I wouldn't read into anything.

    I don't put pictures of my wife on the web because she disgusts me.

    :laugh:


    Now I am aware that not posting pictures of my georgeous husband may be considered a bit weird I will find the one of him in his flourescent orange speedos that should put everyones mind at rest.....on second thoughts it may just make me seem even weirder

    Hmm maybe it was a freudian slip and I was just hoping men would send me pictures of their junk, after all one mans junk is another womans treasure :bigsmile:

    PS Please do NOT send me pictures of your junk.....There is no more room on cork board. :sad:

    I believe I have one of my husband on here with me. If not, I do not because this is about me and my journey. I am not embarassed of my husband. Yes he is my biggest supporter and fan, but I choose not to put his pictures up.

    We are not married, but the photos of us .. don't do her beauty justice, and I don't think she would want them all over the internet.

    my wife didn't even acknowledge she was married, i changed my last name and she never updated that she was married and the guy friends she has freaked when she posted a family pic 3 years later, they didn't know she was married fr 3 years, so they were thinking they had a shot at her. it was very funny, they litterly unfriended her right away. i don't give 2 sh!ts if i am on her facebook or not. who cares, i am confident in my marriage, can't control her, and don't want to, waste of my time and energy.

    Her spouses privacy? I know a lot of spouses that do not have a FB (my brother for one) and who do not want their pictures of business on the the internet. Some are downright paranoid!

    Or their job is such that they cannot have info splashed on line.

    I have pics of my hunny (not married) but I don't think I have to have them and he has his own FB page and doesn't have any of me and for us it means nothing. If a persons is doing it cause they are out looking for something more wether they have pics or not isn't going to stop anyone so I am sure each and every woman or man have their own reasons.

    This is easy, any chick with "its complicated", you can hit it, its an invite that they are open to just about anything if the opportunity arises, they will go for it just as long as you know their situation-trust me, i know lol-Ty

    Some of you are confused. I'm talking about FACEBOOK NOT MFP.

    Thanks.

    My status says I am married and I do not friend anyone I don't know personally on fb so all my fb friends know I am married and most probably have either met, or are are even related to my husband.

    Thinking about it I did have our wedding photo as my profile for a while but I like to change them every now and again. I had a pic of a big chocolate cake for a while as well. Wonder how people interpereted that LOL

    I'm not married, but I find it odd. I have several friends who don't even have Facebook but their wives do... they're still in a few pics. I mean, if you spend a lot of time with someone you're going to have a few photos, right? I might find it less weird if the person just had very few (like ...under 10) pics in general, and none of them happened to include their spouse. But most people have pages and pages of photos on FB....

    Of course, the one relationship from which I have no photo evidence was.. uh, illicit. I'm also a skeptic by nature. These things likely colour my opinion. I suppose for a few of your friends it may be completely innocent... but probably not a large number. :yawn:

    You know, I responded ^this^ way, but now that I think about it, Mr. Illicit has only ever had a pic of him & his wife as a profile shot.. and that clearly means absolutely nothing. So while I still find it a bit strange, I'm sure (like most things) it just depends on the person.

    If you are just dating someone, No big problem with no pics of them (Unless he/she) gets pee'd off about that. If you are Married, You should post pics of you and your spouse.... Just say'n.
    Who put you in charge of what other people should do? You take care of you and I'll take care of me, ok?

    Why on earth do you care? Grow up...take it as the suggestion/opinion he meant it to be...and move on. Trust me...he wasn't giving you an order...and I'm betting once you're not so uptight, not only you...but EVERYONE around you will be MUCH happier.

    /sigh

    Thanks dude...

    No worries man. Normally I wouldn't have even commented...as I practice what I preach...but self centered attitudes like hers are ruining these forums. I just handed her a small dose of what she handed you. An unsolicited, borderline rude response to a comment that wasn't even directed at me lol.
  • There are very few pictures of me and my husband because he HATES having his picture taken...and usually when we take a photo together, one of us looks great and the other looks like crap, haha. That could be one explanation.

    Oh...back on topic...my ex of seven years I mentioned? Yeah...she cheated with a guy from Facebook that knew all about me lol. Having pictures certainly is no proof against that sort of thing.

    Asshats abound :).

    My guy doesn't like his photo taken, and he asked me very kindly and specifically not to share photos on the internet. So I don't. That is just my story. There are other, less innocent stories out there, I'm sure.

    My husband has never posted a pic of me on his Facebook, I take lots of pics and he always wants me to tag him (I'm usually in them) and the majority if his friends are women! It irritates me a bit, and I know he does a lot of flirting...they nor he care that he's married, if it says it with pics or relationship status! I proudly show off ny hubbs...he never takes pics but I've suggested taking a few and putting them up...since the flirting shows no respect maybe the pics will....or maybe that's why I'm so worried about my looks... ;) Ohhhh the drama Facebook creates. :)

    I never had any pics of my husband on FB. or boyfriends. there's a few pics from random hook ups. that's the only way i can remember what they look like...

    oh, and soo much easier/faster to get rid of all evidence of the marriage when there's no pics to begin with...you know, at the divorce party. well, except my child. she's a constant reminder that i was married once. even better that she looks NOTHING like me and people think i've adopted.

    Doesn't mean anything. I don't even have pictures of myself on FB. The people that need to see pics of my family can check my photos elsewhere. Those are password protected.

    Well, I'm not married, but I don't have any photos of my boyfriend on Facebook, because he doesn't have a page himself, and like to limit his online exposure. So I don't add pictures out of respect for him, and that wouldn't change if we were married.
