I have a friend who uses his girlfriend's picture as his DP; more often than he uses his... but on the other hand, his girlfriend doesnt see it as anything wrong not using her boyfriend's picture. However, she feels comfortable uploading pictures of some other guys, or pictures of some of her male friends. Since the guy involved is my very good friend, i just thought it wise to ask him why his girlfriend doesnt use his picture, maybe they both had an agreement to keep the relationship on a low key and avoid tongues from wagging. After asking him his response was "thats the kind of girl she is, she loves to hide her feelings but aam sure she loves me" Now what necessitated this post is to know if truly there are guys or ladies out there who don't use their boyfriend or girlfriend's picture as their screensaver or DP but still stay faithful and love the guy with the whole of their heart just like my friend claimed.

I dont think it proves anything just like using your childs picture doesnt prove anything.

Depends on the individuals involved.

Some people make a big deal out of it, others dont. Since Your friend and his partner understand each other, and they're not letting that cause any problem between them... You should let them be.
The basic idea is trust and self discipline.
I know guys whose gf's pic dont ever leave their dp, yet they have chicks on d side..some even asked me out.

Personally, i wont be bothered if he doesnt use my picture, but i'll definitely feel more special and appreciated if he does.

Heck,there's no big deal in it. It's a matter of choice.

So why do some girls always try to break a sweat about it? Cud remember my gf once asking me why i dont use her picture as often as she uses mine.

Because its validating the relationship.

It doesn't mean love, but it sure cld mean how much u dote on her. My girl dnt use ma pix at all, and she doesn't use other guys too.
She is so much concious of her beauty dt she graced her screens and laptop with her beauty. I do too. Sometimes with mine, hers, nephew of anyone. So far d pix is lovely!

In the case of this story, My friend girlfriend uses her male friends picture but doesnt use that of her boyfriend. My point is, if you know you wont use my picture, thats fine by me. But you shouldnt be that free using your so called friends picture because it riducules my sensibility and makes me doubt your faithfulness.
I cant even try that in my relationship and not be ready for some explanations, unless the person is my blood. This is something i wouldnt take myself, so wont try such with my girlfriend.

Thats bleeped up. She better have a damn good reason for it.

Now we are treading the same line. The scenario is just a total B/S to me. I just think if you know you are not ripe enough for a relationship, dont say you wanna have one because your friends are doing it, and be fallen short of some expected standard.... or in a way be doing stuff which is not in tandem with relationships lay down rules.
