i'm thinking of breaking up with my girlfriend over her facebook relationship status?

[TheBeast]

i have known her for two months and during all that time her relationship status read "Sofie so-and-so is in a relationship with Daniel so-and-so."

Woke up this morning and out of the blue, she had changed her status to single! Remember this is for of people all to see. I asked her why she did that and her reply was a non-chalant "who cares, it's facebook." What the hell?

So enraged i told her i don't know what you are up to, but screw it, do what you want. If you wanna be single, go ahead. How serious can our relationship be if you are advertising to people that you are on the market when you are not?

We had a heated exchange but we haven't officially broken up yet, but this break up is imminent. What should i do? Am i right or am i wrong?

in case you wonder: I'm 19, she's 17
oh yeah, the day she changed her relationship status to single, she added three guys to her friends list

seems a stupid reason to break up. To me anyways. Change your facebook status too. If she complains then you can at least call her a hypocrite. Otherwise grow up

[I♥Boys]

Ask her what she wants and tell her to make it clear and stop playing with your feelins because you are hurting. If you really love her and you think she's worth it, you could try and work it out but if you don't want to be hurt, definitely TALK TO HER! =) Good luck!

Well it sounds like you are waaayyy more mature than she is - age wise and mentally. Just dump her. You deserve better - a girl that can actually tell you that smething is wrong instead of hiding it from you and then telling the whole world except you that you two broke up. I mean relationships involve just two people... Am I wrong?

I dont think you're wrong she shouldnt let other people especially other guys think shes available when she is not. and if she cant repect your feelings shes obviously not good for you

Although it's over facebook and sounds stupid, i have to admit, if someone did that to me i'd be offended. Who cares if it's on facebook? YOU care, that's who. What's her deal? Is she a flirt looking for guys to see her status and start flirting with her? Ask her why, if she has no better reason than "why not?" then that's pretty insensitive. Because you obviously care.

I don't know if i'd break up over that, but i would at least want a reason to why she did that. And if she really does not care about what you say... then she is a jerk.

Okay so I see whare ur coming from its BS i no but my Facebook says in single to but im not us girls just look at it as its just facebook but if she really has nuthing to hid thin ask her for her password & u give urs to her to thin everything can be out in the open so u both can trust one another thats what me & my boyfriend did!!

when she changed the status, she was angry with you or bored with you. Either way, she is starting a break-up. Her response, "who cares, it's facebook", is an immediate tip.

If I was you...hmm. I'd call her, or get a time to talk to her. Start the conversation and see what she says!! If she says stuff like "nothing" or "whatever", she isn't interested in making up with you. Look for those.

If it comes down to that, you should stand as "If we break up, remember, I didn't walk away. You did." Keep that as your motto. Don't be the guy who gets angry and yells and only adds to the problem. If she gets angry first, its not your fault. k?

Sounds to me she just wants to play around. She'll prolly fool around more
with guys in college. Sorry to say this but ur girl doesn't seem gf material.
Maybe just stick w/ her as fck buddies...

Just sayin...

It sounds suspicious that she would change it just out of the blue. I don't think the 3 guys have anything to do with it though, that's most likely just a coincidence.

I think you should change your status to single and see how she reacts. Although, I wouldn't recommend that every time something goes wrong you resort back to "revenge" or getting back at her. That will ruin your relationship and cause many arguments... I should know!

Facebook causes SO MANY problems in relationships, even in marriages! Although it's nice to keep in contact with your friends and families be considerate of peoples feelings and what you say and do on facebook. I wish I had of years ago, it has causes so many problems between myself and my fiance, through jealously which then caused a huge lack of trust on both parts. (Even us Zimbabweans get it wrong sometimes!!) ;-)

It sounds like TRUST is a key issue here as her actions are causing you to be suspicious of her.

I hope it goes well & remember that if it all goes pear-shaped not to sit and wonder, your still young!! (Look at me I sound like an old women ha ha!)

P.S. I think Rebecca is very wrong about sharing passwords! It shows the lack of trust and in the end does more harm than good! Been there, done that, got the T-shirt!

Good luck!
