Is it weird to frequently change your WhatsApp profile pictures

[ShimmyYay]

Would like to see what the general public think to a person (a married woman in mid 30’s) changing her WhatApp profile picture as a minimum once a week , some weeks every other day, some days even twice a day to herself , sometimes with husband sometimes with kids ….

I don’t know anyone else who does this , what does this tendency mean ?

Rheumatoid u bein chargd by the letter? 😄

If I ever noticed something like this I would assess what is wrong with me, and look into developing hobbies.

I'd think they were quite preoccupied with how they look and how others see them. Don't even bother having a photo- don't get why you need one.

If they'd always been a regular profile photo changer then I'd chalk it up to them being very into social media for whatever reason.

If it was new behaviour then I'd find it unusual and wonder why.

I dated a guy that did this. He turned out to be a narcissistic bellend.

Too much time on their hands?

It takes all of 5 seconds to change a photo.

I'd think they'd be doing it for attention.

"You've changed your profile pic! You look so gorgeous 😍😍"

"Aww thank babes 😘"

Now you've got me wondering because I can honestly say I haven't noticed whether anyone does change theirs. It's not something I ever pay attention to but now I'm a lighthearted think.

Exdh has a distinctive artwork type thingy so he never changes his. I don't think I have one at all DP doesn't. I think a couple of the school mums may change theirs regularly but it's hard to tell really because they are tiny generic childrens pictures so have no idea how often they swap between them.

Am I missing something ? Mine only appear tiny on the side so I never look at them I read the name, is there something where they are big and noticeable?

Who cares!

I do regularly and I am middle aged but I am not on fb or any other social media. It is a variety of things, me, me and friends, kids, sayings or nemes and might have a xmas picture in December.

No one comments on it and I don't do it for attention.

This thread has just prompted me to change my photo on WhatsApp.

Some people use it as their equivalent of Facebook or Instagram if they aren’t on those platforms. Personally I rarely change mine but I know one or two people who regularly update their photos and add a status.

They’ve might have time on their hands but not as much as the person who leeks track and then posts about it on here

My profile pic I haven't changed in 2 and a half years. I have people on my WhatsApp who very regularly change their pics, often of themselves or their children, I suppose they want their contacts to see that. I find it odd that Poeople do that, it never occurs to me to change my display pic, with WhatsApp you can only see your own picture if you go in settings, so the fact people go out of their way to do this is because they have unnecessary time on their hands and often want to have a particular way of how they are viewed.
My dh changes his WhatsApp profile pic a lot!! It's not pics of him or us, it's quotes, like meaningful quotes, old photographs of his grand father, great uncle, these are peopel that died before he was born. I find it bizarre like I would never put my grandfather pic on mine, who passed before I was born, I just don't see the need or the point.
I did ask him why he changes it so often and how he even remembers to do it, he said it's just something he does

I'd think it's weirder someone would notice with that much detail

Don't care if anyone does it. I have never changed mine though.

You've described me. I've only got close family and friends on watsapp so see it as no different to posting pics on Facebook. I have 3 kids and like to change the picture up, at the moment I have one up of me and my youngest.

I don't think it is weird but then I wouldn't.

I do mine but mainly once a month of the DC. I tend to do it so extended family can see as not all of them are in our family group chat. I can’t be asked to send to everyone individually. I don’t have other soical media so easier to change WhatsApp pic.

I never knew WhatsApp had stories 🤷🏻‍♀️🙈

Too much time on her hands. Insecure and desperate for attention. Wants people to think she's something special.

It is odd but I'm not sure I'd notice. I've never changed mine and it isn't of me, I don't see WhatsApp as needing a profile pic? It's not like social media.

Strange yes but nothing I'd dwell on.

I would think she had too much time on her hands.
I change mine every few weeks to keep up with the constant growth of my baby.

It’s excessive daily, but, again, too much time on her hands.
