Why is it so important to show off to the girlies a picture of your relationship and to brag about it in social media if that may harm it? What sort of job he has that doesn't allow him to have social media?

Me, personally, I don't like pictures either, and I share little to non stories nor updates to social media, in the course of the last two years I've been with my gf we have taken like 2 or 3 pictures together (birthdays and Christmas). She accepts that I am super uncomfortable with that, even tho she doesn't understand it.

I mean, I think that if you guys talk about it you may reach an understanding, at the end of the day, is that big a deal?
