I’ll keep an his brief. Split with partner a few month ago after an argument which got out of hand. Got back together after 5 weeks, been back together for 6 weeks now and I’m still blocked on all his social media. Yeah I know it sounds a bit petty and I know it’s just social media…but it’s bugging me. Everything else is absolutely fine, he’s been very attentive ect ect. He hasn’t just forgotten I’m blocked, he uses social media a lot. Am I being a arse for letting this get to me? I’m unsure of even asking him about this, I don’t want him to think I’m making a big deal of it..it’s not a big deal but it is bugging me. Why would he have me blocked?

I think you should address it with him in a super casual way. I know what you mean ! Make sure he knows it’s more than just social media, like I’m sure you don’t just want to see his profile it’s more that you feel disconnected and is this how he handles conflict by shutting down and avoidance. Say something like “are we moving forwards ? Or is something bothered you still with me being blocked on your socials” then let him do the talking…
You’re not being an arse !

@ShineBrighterxx he does shut down to avoid conflict. He sends me stuff he’s seen on social media via WhatsApp, it’s almost as if he’s waiting for me to say something! I just don’t want to make a big deal if it but it is pissing me off!

If this is a source of conflict then I honestly don't think you have a future. You should be able to trust each other.

Was he open about what he was doing during your 5 week split? Was he seeing other people?
It definitely sounds as though during that time he connected with someone else and he doesn't want you to know.

@Anyoneforcricketandtennis we’ve never spoke about it but I do have a feeling this is exactly why!
