hey everyone, im having a problem. if you get into a relationship and he/she doesnt wanna tell certain people, does that mean he/she is ashamed of being with you infront of other people or does he/she think those people wouldn't understand?

it can be that he/she is afriad of what people miqht think About you quys dating! beccause if its jelousy to others , it can affect your relationship !

it can also be that he. she is embbarrsed of you. but loves your personality and stuff .

ive been through this before and he was to embbarrsed to tell anyone about us, because of rumors hes heard about me (that ima whore and stuff) but im NOT!

just take the time to talk to him/her about it. it wouldn't hurt neither of you :] Good luck to you and hope you tell me how it went!

Illithid agony auntNote: I don't know HER reason, but the last time I was dating a girl that wanted to keep it secret, she was keeping it quiet only so people wouldn't realize she was cheating.

In your case, I don't know, but maybe you should just be open anyway? If she wants to be with you, she should be willing to let people know.

depends on the situation. unless there are special circumstances, it does probably mean he's ashamed.

It could genuinly be that she thinks others won't understand. Like her family for example. I would give her time and gently ask why she feels that way. The only one who really knows is her. Perhaps she has been hurt in the past and wants to take it slow. Gently talk to her about it, and listen to her.
