ask him why he wants to do this i dont think this is fair to you at all cos you cant comfortably be with him the way you want to be in public. its not healthy to keep this in private there is no reason to! talk to him and see wat is going on and tell him that you are not happy with the situation. he should respect you enough to give you a satisfying response to this and if you are not happy with it then i would advise you to get out and find someone that will make you happy and will be proud to show you off to everyone, hope this helps hun if you wanna talk further email me hun good luck xxx

To me, it is not normal. If you are in a relationship and share same friends, i dont know why he wouldnt make it public. Is he afraid of somehing? Either way, you are not a thing he needs to hide. You are his girlfriend and he should want to show you off to world!!!!!!!

Could be he's ashamed to be seen with you.
He's afraid his buddies will take the piss.
