Luckly we not talking about nude or scandalous pictures. But a simple one he took of her while we all where hanging out with my group. I think it would have been different if this was a picture with the whole group in it instead of only my friend in it. He said that since we ordered a torn of drink my friend just ended up being in the photo he took of the drinks. The same photo that he uploaded on snapchat story when he barely even posts me on his snapstory. And u could barely see the torn of drinks in it since my friend was the one shining in the picture. And shes pretty as hell to. But he even went his way to save this photo into his album wich then i asked why he has a pic of her?

Your use of the word torn is more confusing than your aibu

WhatMe123 · 26/05/2025 11:58

Yes it's unusual op in my opinion

ItGhoul · 26/05/2025 12:00

Are you 15 or something?

Yeh, it’s a pic he leers over when he needs relief.
Are you all very young?
Students, sixth formers?

I guess you’ll have to “put up or shut up” if you don’t think you can walk away.

nomas · 26/05/2025 12:06

Are people really so obtuse that they can’t see ‘torn’ is a typo for ‘ton’?

OP, YANBU, sounds like he has a bit of a crush on her.

HuffleMyPuffle · 26/05/2025 12:07

You're jealous of your friend

Also, don't your photos just get saved to the album anyway? Do you mean he moved it to a separate album?

LlynTegid · 26/05/2025 12:08

I think you should be concerned that it may be for his own self-pleasure, though understand why this would upset you.

ClaudeShowers · 26/05/2025 12:08

He put her on his socials because he’s proud of being associated with her. He kept her photo because he has a crush on her.

DinaofCloud9 · 26/05/2025 12:09

He obviously fancies her. It's not rocket science.

UniqueRedSquid · 26/05/2025 12:16

Unless you’re 13 YABU for being bothered about a “snapstory”.

Tulipsontoast · 26/05/2025 12:18

He took a photo and your friend happened to be in the background but you are cross because she’s pretty and he’s not deleted it?

If she wasn’t pretty would you mind?

ginasevern · 26/05/2025 12:22

It's because he fancies the pants off her. But you know that otherwise you wouldn't be posting here. You sound quite young.

Tulipsontoast · 26/05/2025 12:25

What do you mean by ‘he even went his way to save this photo into his album’?

I'm still confused because photos just save to the photo gallery

abanemare · 27/05/2025 12:49

OP, please ignore the pointless jibes about the typo and whether you are young or not. All white noise. To answer your genuine concern, no, you are right to be worried, he has a soft spot for your friend and I think you will probably have to question him about it

MereNoelle · 27/05/2025 12:52

Photos save to your gallery regardless don’t they? So the issue is that he took it/didn’t delete it?

Dontlletmedownbruce · 27/05/2025 12:56

I'm guessing you are the kind of woman who believes women should only be friends with women. Maybe he isn't like that? I always had male friends and I presume I was in their photos, as they were in mine. If my BF told me I couldn't be friends with them or have photos there is no way I could be with him. I guess I'm saying it really depends on his relationship with your friend and whether he might see her as his friend too. If he doesn't really know her that is different.

Gotta love MN. Obviously the only reason anyone takes photos of anyone else is so they can wank over them later.

FFS.
