It was my birthday last week.
My boyfriend has never been a huge social media user, but did used to go on instagram sometimes. He used to post a funny story on my birthday.
This year he didn’t. Now, I know social media isn’t everything, and it’s not this exact fact that I’m upset about.
I simply asked him why he doesn’t anymore, when he used to. It was just out of curiosity.
He just said things like “you don’t get to monitor my social media use” and he said he won’t be made to feel like he had to post a story.
I also figured that maybe he just didn’t even think about it. What upset me most was he actually said he thought about it, and decided against it.
He said he used to post stories “because he wanted to”.
This whole thing makes me feel like he’s gone off me, and that he just simply isn’t as interested anymore. He used to do it because he wanted to, now he simply doesn’t.
it’s hard to explain, but am I being stupid to feel a bit sad?
