OMG his ex keeps copying/reenacting PROFILE PICTURES!!

[Biscuitcoffee]

Hello,

this is something totally random but totally weird. Every time my boyfriend uploads a new picture of us to his profile pic on either Facebook or WhatsApp, his ex seems to replicate the exact photo with her current partner!!!

My boyfriend uploaded a photo of us last week and today his ex uploaded a totally uncanny, exact same poses, smiles, hair styles, of her and her boyfriend and uploaded it on all her social media!!! This has happened multiple times now and I think she’s totally at it.

Is this jealousy or mind games? She even asked my boyfriend a few weeks ago if he’d ever have kids with me (they have children together), so bizarre.

What could this be?

How do you know?
Why not just leave her to it and not check her SM?

Is there more to this?

She's messed up and maybe not over the relationship and sees it as competition

It's ok to ask if he would have children when they have shared children together.

Either way, for your own sanity, stay off her social media.

Obviously you need to take a totally ridiculous photo and wait to see if she copies it.

She probably knows you're stalking her and wants to wind you up.

Sounds like there’s more to this.

What is the history here?

Or she's just taking photos with her partner? Why are you checking her page??

I don’t think it’s me, but trying to get at him! He stayed single for a long time after the split and she rushed into a relationship very quickly. I don’t know if she’s just trying to prove she’s happy

Stop looking at her socials.

For everyone saying to stop looking at her socials, we’re all connected because there’s kids involved! I can’t not see it!

This!

Presumably you have her phone number. You don't need to be on her social media.

You can "not" see it mute them

And change your profile picture to clowns and leave it up

Mine is my cat because my ex was doing similar so my cat take centre stage

You wouldn't know if you weren't friends on Facebook. Block her you are both being weird

That's definitely an excuse, you do not need her SM because of kids. I have none of my exs sm, neither do I feel I would need it for anything. You sound more obsessed with her than the other way round, from this.

Not really. Most people would use a phone call or text message to communicate with an ex about kids I would have thought. WhatsApp perhaps. But I can't imagine why (other than being nosey or a stalker) exs need to be on each others social media if its as bad as you're making it sound. And if they're his kids, why are you connected to her social media? Have I missed something?

Obviously, she is the fairest of them all and nobody can be fairer than she. Beware gifts of combs/apples etc.

I’d honestly delete my socials. I did it a long time ago, and I feel so much better for it. I love being outside the loop and totally ignorant to whatever games people play with one another! Maybe she’s not over the relationship If it’s happening a lot. Very strange behavior if she is trying to copy you guys.

You don’t need to be on each other’s socials for the kids. Keep it more formal. Text. Email. Etc. This is all so childish.

Is it possible that this is a coincidence? You mention poses, smiles and hairstyles being the same - although we think that we are individual, it’s amazing how homogeneous we are.

Realistically, even if you do think she is “copying” you (ugh), you’ll need to ignore it. There’s no way to address it without sounding like a lunatic. You put photos up with your partner - she puts them up with hers.

Bullshit.

Just stop looking at her SM.

As someone says, this sounds so childish and petty. Try a hobby
