Following young women on Instagram

I’ve been having a nose at my partners instagram and who he’s following..it’s not good.

He’s following women under the of 25 showing their bodies off sexually...he’s 45. I personally think it’s disgusting.

Can I have your opinions on it?

He's a sleaze. I'd find that such a turn off I don't think I could look at him in the same light again. Have you asked him about it?

I don't think it's great but I also don't think Instagram is great, precisely for what you described (thousands of women displaying "weight loss" to try and shift related products while in insanely photoshopped bikini shoot).

I think the real question is, why were you snooping through his Instagram? Not saying you're wrong to, just wondering what made you insecure enough to look?

Sleazy for sure. I wouldn't follow young men on social media, they just seem like they could all be my little brothers, and I'm in my 30s.

Vile. So many men are "that" man. What is wrong with them?

There's no trust in your relationship if you feel you are justified to snoop on him like that, so don't worry too much, just leave.
