As per the title - Easter Sunday is off to a dreadful start with ā€˜D’ H and I already having had an argument.

Some background, we have individual insta’s but for any major ā€˜announcements/events’ as such we will use the collaboration feature so the post appears on both our grids. Think engagement, wedding, pregnancy-gender reveal/birth, anniversary etc.

It’s our DD’s first Easter so I’ve got her a brilliant outfit, some props and of course eggs. I’ve also got a personalised sort of sign which says it’s her first Easter.

I said to H I’ll get the photos done after breakfast and we can joint post. He says it’s stupid to do this and doesn’t warrant all the effort as it’s ’only Easter’ so he won’t be putting it on his grid.

AIBU to feel pissed off with him? It will look strange if it’s only on my page.

If an egg cracks in the woods and nobody puts it on social media - did it even happen?

Sorry I meant Z! I’m X 🤣

Leave @Sailead alone, her ancient (probably menopausal) gen x brain got muddled up. She's corrected herself!! 😁

Gen xers are in their 50's now. Doubt OP is Gen X with a 1 year old. Plus Gen X would definitely not be posting shit like this anywhere.

My brother is Gen X and he is 46 not 50!

It maybe the work if a millennial / Gen Y or most likely Gen Z. Something my Younger cousins would do!

PunchUpInPoplar · 20/04/2025 08:35

I bloody love being Gen X when I read about nonsense like this šŸ˜†

PalmTreeAngel · 20/04/2025 08:33

Sounds more like Gen Z behaviour I think.
if it’s that important to you, OP - I say post from your account. Or are you more unhappy at the fact he’s not joining in?

Yeah it’s the latter. He isn’t the one who has gone to all the effort to get the outfits and props etc, I’ve sorted everything and it feels unappreciative of him to turn round and say he wants nothing to do with it.

It’s our wedding anniversary in a few weeks and I’ll be livid if he pulls a similar stunt.

If I was being very jaded I would wonder if he has a side piece? When I was seeing someone who had a partner, he was invisible on all SM. Just to add, I had no idea he had a partner, and that's how he played us both. If he had been tied to her on anything, the game would have been up.

You need to grow up. Getting likes on Instagram is not important. You sound shallow and insecure.

Shame on you, @edwinbear !!
Get your prop out immediately and set the family decorating it.
Call David Bailey for the piccys, Saatchi & Saatchi to run the advertising campaign letting the world know the piccys are on insta...

@SaileadGen X?! They are too old to have a child this young. Gen X are the ones thinking about retirement and grandchildren!

Take your daughter to church and get in with her first Easter service.

And if your Instagram is public you should stop it now children don't need public photos.

Definitely not, he posts about me/DD on his story regularly, but he’s woken up in a mood and decided he doesn’t want too today šŸ™„

Why do you need to post at all though? I can guarantee most people on your feed will just roll their eyes at it

What happens to the props and outfits after? Landfill or charity shop šŸ¤”šŸ™„

You can just hold up a prop that says Divorce & the photoshoot is saved plus think of all the engagement!

I really want to believe this is a piss take, because the alternative is depressing. But sadly I know quite a few women who I can easily imagine posting this. It's not just teens who are obsessed with social media unfortunately.

AlphaRadiationIsHeliumNuclei · 20/04/2025 08:39

Imagine being this self centred.

She is ignoring all the logical responses and only reaponding to those who will entertain her silliness. šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø
