Me and my boyfriend aren't into the whole PDA thing. We'll hold hands, kiss each other hello/goodbye in public etc etc.
We virtually never use Facebook, there a few pictures up of us together on it, and we will occasionally mention things we've done/where we've went out, though we aren't really facebooky people for even general stuff too. We talk to each other in person/text/skype so I at least feel like there is no need to update Facebook constantly. I know he loves me, He knows I love him, I don't see the point in telling my 200 odd friends it.
I see loaaaads of couples however every single day bombarding Facebook with loads of pictures of them, statuses every week/day about how much they love they're boyfriend/girlfriend, what they got them etc.
I'm sort of thinking, wow, maybe these people think we have a crap relationship or something because we are private with it. I just feel a bit weird because it seems the norm to plaster your relationship everywhere, and it isn't the norm for us. We are both happy keeping to ourselves, But I guess I just feel a bit awkward, like there is something wrong with it because it seems uncommon. We've been going out for 4 years, so maybe it's just because i'm seeing a load of early relationships that it's a bit weird because we are comfortable. Is it that important nowadays to publicly how much you are in love everywhere all the time?
Put the internet to work for you.
