In the beginning of a new relationship it’s common to be hesitant about posting your relationship on social media. Most want to make sure solid before making that leap. Well that was not the case with Jacob. Months went by and he always had an excuse or a reason to keep me off his Facebook. The most popular one being that we did post our relationship on Facebook but after an argument, I hastily blocked him. Yes it was true, but other factors lead me into believing that Facebook was yet another way to control and manipulate me. I noticed that the picture I posted on his timeline showed the settings symbol, meaning he chose his audience. I asked a friend to look on her Facebook and see if she could see it and she replied with a No, there was no sign of me anywhere on his Facebook. So naturally I brought that to his attention and it started a fight. I didn’t realize back then that an argument would start every time I had an issue with something he said or did. After a year of being together, I still was not on his social media.
