Honestly I think a lot of women nowadays need the continual input from social media otherwise then don’t feel they are attractive. Pretty sad if you ask me.

People usually say don't trust an addict. I'd add don't trust an insecure person. I've seen quite a few insecure people in my life. All of them are addicts in the sense that they are addicted to validation.
Obviously everyone has insecurity. But please be careful around people who are extremely insecure. Like junkies they'll do unsavory things just for validation.

you ever on a diet when you know what you should do but end up eating cake at 1 am? Sounds a bit like that
There's something wrong there but if the guy is not telling her anything it's not your problem, if i were a betting man i'd give them most 5 years

I’ve dated girls who have done this. It never really bothered me BUT they did turn out to be narcissistic as hell. You don’t quite see it at first, but it will always come out. I mean to constantly crave that sort of attention is a huge red flag.
I’d say just let them be. It’s not your battle.

I mean I would never put up with it if I was serious about the girl but he’s a bit of a dumb dumb

Maybe she just likes to show off her body (some people do), maybe she spends two hours a day in the gym and wants validation. Maybe she’s actually quite insecure and needs constant external input.
There are about a million reasons she could be doing this.
And as an adult, she can do what she wants. It’s between your friend and his girlfriend. None of your business to comment on really.
How’s your love life?

Pretty good. Your mom says hi

For real though, it’s odd you care enough to create a Reddit post about it. Do you like the girl?
[–]1hatethis 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Dude are you an idiot? I take a psychological/ sociological interest to the situation. Stop white knighting and whining
[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Idk what white knighting is? I’m assuming it’s an insult?

What I find interesting is about this is you say “there are no signs of her wanting to play the field” and then “ She’s very active on Instagram and literally every second story/ post is ass/tits.”
You see how those two things conflict?
She is advertising and her guy is not the target audience.
People will behave as poorly as you allow in order to have their cake and eat it too.

Rally dude the girl is all over him. He’s definitely not reciprocating her feelings and she’s a lot more into him than he is into her
I think she just craves the attention and validation from better dudes but knows they will play her so she does this in some kind of masturbatory way

Maybe she is trying to make him jealous. Doesn't seem very healthy relationship to me.
[–]Tannerite2 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
That might be why. She's insecure and addicted to the attention social media gives her because she's not getting it at home
[–]themostgianthorse 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
My initial thought is what you elude to: she would jump if something better came along and it was a sure shot.
None of us could possibly understand the ins and outs of someone else’s relationship on the internet. I can tell you that since I have had social media beginning in 2005, I’ve never personally known a couple like this that stayed together long.
Maybe your friend is not that into her which makes him more desirable in her view.

Does she have an OF or is she making a career off her Instagram (or trying for a career)? If so, then this makes perfect sense.
Also pornstars, models, actresses all show off their bodies & sex appeal all the time, yet it has nothing at all to do with their feelings towards their partner.

No nothing like that

Guys look at an attractive woman, get a boner and think she's the prize. A woman spends all weekend shopping for make up, $500 dress she will wear once, designer shoes, all so she can go out and people will be impressed with her. What others think of them is the most important thing in the world. So you tell me? Is she really the prize or is the prize the person she's trying to impress?
I like how you framed this.

Hmm, op the sub may need more context to understand. Specifically the instagram or said pictures.
Purely for research purposes and to maximize the value of this post.

Addictions don't stop. Some women become addicted to the feeling of getting attention and the self-esteem boost it brings through positive reactions from posting those kinds of pics. They aren't going to stop just because they're in a relationship.
[–]1hatethis 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Valid point but she could be just posting non sexual pics. Advertising your sexual availability this way is disrespectful and clearly there’s something behind it

Valid point but she could be just posting non sexual pics.
They don't have to be overtly sexual/onlyfans-level pics to get the comments that they want. They could be wearing a dress on a night out and everyone will comment about how good they look. That works too.

@ her ig though. I want to see how serious she is to her bf

My ex was like that. Posting half nudes to her Snapchat story constantly. It’s a very confusing one to try and navigate. In a way, psychologically, the only reason a woman does something like that is to attract men. Wether they admit it or not. What they get out of it is the question.
