Is Using Your Partner As Your DP A Sign Of Love? by arvinsloane(m): 5:36pm On Dec 19, 2014
It happens that most people in relationships once in a while make there partner their DP

Most partners/ spouse avoid doing that,even when they are seriously in U

Now the quest is:
1 Putting ur partners pix as ur dp...does it show love or trust?

2 partner that is avoiding putting his/her partners pix on there BBM or WHATsApp or other social network platform, does it means they are unfaithful or they don't love their partner?
There is this girl who has threaten to break up with me if I don't use her pix on my BBM. I have asked her to go ahead because I'm not ready to do that.
Pls share ur view..

I personally think it's not a sign of genuine love, A person can just upload a photo of his/her lover just to please him/her, Though some people do it to show others that they are taken(in a relationship), Its still not a sign of love.

I don't think it's a sign of love.... But it's also a way to somewhat re-assure your partner that you're not ashamed of them, and that they are the only person you're seeing.

The dynamics of a relationship varies from person to person, some people don't mind if their partners don't put their pictures as dps, while others "demand" it, not necessarily out of paranoia, insecurity or jealously, but that's how they personally interprete expression of love.


Summarily, whatever works for you, if you're in a committed relationship and you know your partner loves "PDADP" [Public Display of Affection on Display Picture], then very much so, please do it.

You have spoken well... I am a salesman and mostly all my customers , bosses and prospects are on my bbm list and whatsapp... I don't feel comfortable using a ladies pix cos it makes me look like a joker. Do you really think using a ladies pix on my Dp will have any effect on the people I do business with. Thanks

True...In your own case, your woman should be objective enough to see reasons, I don't think it's ethically appropriate business wise, to put your woman's picture as her dp since most of your contacts are business clients or prospects... But maybe on special occasions-her birthday... Feb 14 and others. Atleast your business partners are also human beings and not machines, they too must have and appreciate someone special in their lives.

Why do people make simple things so complex. It's just as simple as dat. "Your face as my dp" fin!! People get sooo sensitive about that. There are tooo many signs of love that people tend to ignore but then they find sign
s of love in something as simple as this. I say this because I have seen situations where a couple get into pointless arguments because one person refuses to use their picture as a dp. It's really not healthy sometimes.

just like @1one said, wanting ur bf/gf 2 use u as dp does nt necessarily stem out jealousy or possessiveness. it's a reassuring thingy, it means u're proud of dis person, dat u're identifying urself wit dis person. it doesn't hav 2 be sth u do always but do appreciate esp wen u hav dis very beautiful/handsome pic of d person. Anytin odawise is B.S

Op,

It is never a sign, it's just an imported 21st century mundane desire.

The onus is on patners to love themselves well enough not to even notice a social media display picture upload.

My mum of blessed memory never knew what "over-bloated display picture" is, but never was she found wanting in loving my dad.

I don't do a relationship which is akin to "click like" if you love Jesus, "don't click like" if you love satan I always ask them, "so if I refuse to click "like" does that mean I don't like Jesus?"

Relate the two.
