To ask boyfriend about FB picture

I’ve been with my boyfriend for a year, it’s all going well. This may seem like a non issue to some, however yesterday my boyfriend changed his profile picture to a photo of me and him for the first time. Thought it was a sweet thing to do. When I went to comment on it I realised he’d turn the ability to comment off. After a quick scroll through, it’s the only photo on there that you’re not able to comment on.

I don’t usually pay too much attention to social media but this has made me feel a little uneasy. AIBU if I ask him why? I really don’t want to come across as crazy!

Could you comment on the photo ILR? Just tell him what you wanted to say about it to his face. Dp and I have found healthy communication really helps and what’s more healthy than looking at photos of you together and talking about shared memories

He probably doesn’t want a tonne of notifications saying the same thing…

@SerpentstoothAm I only allowed to worry about one thing at a time? I thought this was an advice forum!

I think their point was that in the greater scheme of things there are probably far larger things to worry about in the world right now. Like the prospect of being dragged into world war three and the odd one or two long range weapons slowly being aimed in the rough direction of the UK right now. But hey, your picture on Facebook....

The World is on fire and this is what worries you? Bloody hell.

Oh wheest, that virtue signalling response is so boringly repetitive now...🙄

People are allowed to have their own lives and worries!!

Just tell him you went to comment and you saw he turned the comments off, and ask why. No need to be accusatory about it, I don't think you have anything to worry about, but just to satiate your curiosity. I'd be curious too.
