Soon to be girlfriend doesn't want majority of people to know we are dating!

Question - (2 February 2012) 2 Answers - (Newest, 2 February 2012)
A male Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

So i have a soon to be girlfriend but she says she doesn't want to put up our status on Facebook(and i agreed it's kind of stupid) but she also said she would wants no one to we are dating. Is this because she may be embarrassed of me.

her close friend told me she doesn't know why she is embarrassed(which means she is embarrased.. how ever i was told by the actual girl a bit later, or maybe she also assumed she was embarrised) her friend may have accidently spilled that she is embarrised, although im sure most of her closest friends will know(i know her best friend does, the one that told me). She is very shy and has never been in a relationship prior to the one we will have, she also rejected me initially, she told me she was of afraid of putting her self out there i just cant stress it enough that she is shy. Although i have already told her i love her, I really don't want to waste my time with a person who is embarrassed by me. What do you guys think? And my beef is not with the status on facebook because thats lame. It's more or less the fact that im getting the feeling she may want our relationship a secret. I asked her about it flat out asking are you embarrised of me and she told me I just don't want people getting on my nerves and asking alot of questions. But something feels off, I myself have never even had a girlfriend prior to this So I'm not sure but do girls usually not want people to know about their relationship?

In my experience when people you are in a relationship don't want people to know, or don't want to go public on facebook it's because they have something to hide.

This might not be the case with you though, but it is something for you to take into consideration. Ask her why she doesn't want people to know, because it is kind of shady, and its perfectly okay to be uneasy about it.

If she's shy, she's probably embarrassed about just generally being in a relationship with anybody, not embarrassed of you.

I think it's fair enough not wanting everyone knowing about your relationship, especially on Facebook, it's no-one else's business! I don't think it's off at all, I would be the same. As long as she's told her friends then she's not embarrassed of you ... if she was she wouldn't have told anyone at all.
