Liking another girls photos

I have been dating a guy now for around 5 months. We are exclusive but taking things slowly.
A couple of months ago, I saw on social media that he had liked a girl (about twenty years younger than him) photos, infact all of them. These included photos of her in a bikini, seductive photos etc.
As you can imagine i wasnt impressed and i raised it with him saying i found this behaviour disrespectful. Turns out its a work colleague and they regularly go out etc...ive never met any of his friends or this person. He said it was good i said my boundaries but it was nothing to worry about. He then deleted social media because it wasnt worth upsetting me, which i found really strange. Anyway, low and behold hes got social media back, liked all her new bikini photos and to make things worse, none of my posts (i feel abit childish for saying this). He says i read to much into social media but i just cant stand being made a fool of.

Am i right to confront and say something? I feel so disrespected and upset.

How are you seeing this? Are you checking all her photos?

No, it comes up on my feed. The profiles are public

Can you really be arsed with all this? A heterosexual man will always be interested in looking at a photo of an attractive woman in a bikini, but liking all the photos? It’s a bit tragic.

What a loser.
He's a HR disaster in the making and if you have aspirations I'd not want to be associated with it when it all happens.

Whatever it is about this man that seems to have you completely disregarding all common sense and dignity, there are other people who can also provide you with this who will not treat you like a piece of shit.

Do yourself a favour, dump the fucker.

Why does he think he knows best how much you should read into things?

Confronting a tosser about being a tosser doesn't stop them being a tosser, so there's little point. If you don't like how someone treats you, it's not your responsibility to re-educate them. You don't get to tell him how to be. Your responsibility is your own behaviour, so, choose not to be around him.

Urgh. What a creep.

By Liking the photos, he is telling her he finds her attractive.

Why do people do this? Creepy

suspect though that you will given the other threads you have started about this “relationship”

Ugh is this going to be one of those where OP posts constant threads about her shitty partner and everyone says dump him and she completely ignores the advice and the next week is posting again 🙄
