<p>If your boyfriend suddenly became an online whre -- meaning he was constantly on those online profiles adding girls with revealing pics, would it be justified to consider these actions as a strike against him?</p>
<p>Yes. Especially if you told him it bothered you and asked him to stop.</p>
<p>I'd say it's a big strike. It's a "you better talk fast or else" big strike.</p>
<p>Of course it's a strike against him. Have you told him that you're not okay with it?</p>
<p>Unfortunately, I haven't told him that I'm not okay with it. I'm not sure how I'd go about doing it without me sounding lame and like an overjealous girl. "You need to know that I'm not okay with you adding all these girls as your friends..." ?? Would that work?</p>
<p>If I'm to confront him, I feel like I should have an answer for where to draw the line on this kind of stuff. And I don't have a rational answer for that. If it were up to me, I'd rather he only be friends with guys or at least people that he actually knows in real life. But is it reasonable to expect that of him?</p>
<p>How do his online activities affect your relationship?</p>
<p>Can you articulate or get him to think about comparable in-person situations? One hopes that he would not be getting "revealing pics" (which does really bother me) with women he knows in person.</p>
<p>How easy would it be to discuss this problem with him?</p>
<p>wow... controlling...</p>

<p>I don't know that his activities affect or threaten our relationship, but they certainly annoy me. Of course there's the obvious reasons, but mostly, I've just always been annoyed with the whole online profile scene. I don't mean to offend anyone here whose into MySpace, etc. But around campus, I see tons of people surfing MySpace and/or The Facebook or talking about it and I can't help but think how lame it all is. That's not to say that anyone with a profile is lame. But those who are constantly on it and participating and even using it to find dates -- that I think is truly lame.</p>
<p>I genuinely believe that my boyfriend is not one of the aforementioned lame people. However, I'm still scared that he might turn into one of those people.</p>
<p>He is just having harmless fun. What seems cooler: someone with a bunch of "friends" as pictures of hot chicks, or a bunch of "friends" as pictures of dorky looking people? The facebook does not work for dating by the way, anyone who gets a message from someone on the facebook asking for a date automatically assumes that guy is a stalker.</p>
<p>Hahaha. Yeah the harmless fun doesn't bother me so much, it's the thought that he might be someone who does this to find acceptance online because I know he's not truly like that and that he's a million times better than that.</p>
<p>My sister actually has a friend who met her boyfriend on one of those online profiles. I don't which profile place it was though. It amazes me that people are able to meet this way. First of all it's so lame (I can't say that enough), and secondly, I would think that everyone would assume that a date asker would be a stalker.</p>
<p>(Stalkers suck, especially post stalkers.)</p>
<p>It amazes me that all people who meet this way don't end up like this girl: <a href="http://www.myspace.com/doowop%5B/url%5D">http://www.myspace.com/doowop</a></p>
<p>she went to VCU... before she was murdered.</p>
<p>Oh wow.. oh geez...</p>
<p>i would tell him.</p>

I met my BF online... and I'm still here :p</p>
<p>that's good rainbow kirby!</p>
<p>hopefully your boyfriend is not 20 years older than you and you did not run off with him without telling anyone before you knew much about him. And hopefully your boyfriend is not in trouble for child pornography and firearms. o_O</p>
<p>so basically he's on myspace adding hot chicks. well, what are ya gonna do? unless he's actually talking to these gals and trying to hang out with them, i dont think you should risk confronting him - might make him all paranoid and into "personal space" and freak out.</p>
<p>Oh yeah well I beat you all. I met my GF here on CC a year ago and we are still together and visit each other weekly.</p>
<p>We are also really hot.</p>
<p>You should make your own myspace whr profile and have guys post comments on how hot you are. Myspace other than seeing old friends is basically an attention getting method to say "look at me look at me!" Some people really need a self-esteem boost. </p>
