Is he lying?

I'm in a long distance relationship. We obviously rely on messaging and social media to stay in touch and actually see each other once or twice a month.

He had a lot of interaction with another lady online, always liking her posts etc and whenever she updated her profile picture he'd always 'love' it and tell her how beautiful she is. I got upset by all this in the end and we had a long chat about it, but he said he has no interest in her. I thought we'd sorted it out, but she updated her pic today and he's done it again. I find it quite disrespectful to me to fawn over another woman so publicly, but he doesn't see the big deal. Am I being oversensitive? I'm feeling like I'm the one with the problem now. Oddly, she has not 'liked' his comment, whereas she has 'liked' every single other comment (there are lots) and has always responded to his comments in the past, which makes me feel like he's said something to her about my insecurities and asked her not to react to anything he posts now. So am I just being daft here or is there more to this than he's admitting?

I wouldn't like it, it sounds as if he would like to be with her but maybe she's not interested. He knows leaving comments hurts you and he's continued, he doesn't care about your feelings.

No you're not over reacting.. That is your line, he happily crossed it. So its time to put your foot down.

It makes me cringe when men are constantly dooling and liking other womens photos!

Delete Facebook. It's unhealthy

He doesn’t respect you. No kids? Get out now and find someone who would care if they hurt your feelings.

Thanks for the replies. Joopy that was my thought, perhaps she'd turned him down so I'm second choice.

No, what’s unhealthy is people who can’t use Facebook to get what they want from it and not get the crap many deem as Facebooks fault.

Lying about what?
He’s being quite open in his thoughts by his actions isn’t he?

You’re not overreacting. He’s telling another woman how beautiful she is?? No thanks. Get rid. Don’t you want better for yourself? Disrespectful and unacceptable!
