CPT: FB PDA

megngregk

So I see a lot of this in my newsfeed. It's NMS, but seems so common. Brought on my my sister posting something on her DHs wall about something they should do. Why not text or talk about it at home?

So, do you use FB for PDA or having public conversations

I voted SS because DH doesn't have facebook. He just logs into mine.

My DH deactivated his FB account a couple of years ago. When he still had it I think I tagged him in pictures (of which I posted very few) but that's about all.

I voted I never tag because I very rarely tag my husband in posts, and if I tag him in photos it's of our kids so people he's friends with can see them.

If I tag him its typically like "we're having a baby" or "we found out we're having a girl!"...lol..sometimes for anniversaries. Not like every other post though.

Same here.  However, I do hate it when people tag their SO in everything they post. It's one thing if it's about kids/friends/etc. that pertains to them, but no need to a nightly post detailing what you had for dinner and tagging your SO.

Same here. I tag him in big stuff or photos of him/us, but that's it. I will tag him in picture of LO occasionally, I'm sure, but not all.the.freaking.time.

I have a few friends who I've hidden or deleted because every status is about their SO, and then they will post practically the exact same thing on guy's wall.

If you constantly have to tell the world how amazing your relationship is, it probably isn't. Or there's serious insecurities.

I tag in photos and check ins but that's about it. We are not big on pda. We'll hold hands, but not like all over each other.

The other day dh's friend and his gf were over and they were being obnoxious with the pda to the point where dh and I flash backed to middle school. So next time they come over, dh and I are going to be totally obnoxious and make them feel as uncomfortable as they made us lol.

I'll write on his wall funny things... like, hey your daughter (aka his dog) is mad at you. Or something g along those lines.

I tag him occasionally in DS pictures or a status. Nothing like OMG. IM SOOOO MADLY IN LOOOOOVE WITH YOOOOUUUU. YOOOOUUUU AEW THE APPLE OF MY EYE!

I only tag him in very random status's.  I don't tag photos so I picked SS.

Winnieella

I tag him in pictures of him and me that I upload (if I upload them) or things like "We are expecting! " but I don't tag him in everything.

I tag him when I check in or if I post pics of our son. I have two friends on FB that have a joint account with their husband which I find very weird. I'm sorry if I offend anyone by saying that, but it is worst form of FB PDA. Edited because I suck at grammar

LuGal623

I tag DH mostly in pics of our dog lol.

Couples who post back and forth drive me up a wall!! I tag H in stuff if we are out doing something and I want to share a funny story that involved him and in pictures. Period. If I want to tell him how awesome he is and how much I love him, I tell him via phone or face.

The joint accounts drive me crazy! I have friends who went from having their separate pages to having a combined page. They post to each other and have to sign their names with each post/comment they make. So annoying!

I put SS. For the most part if we write on each other's walls or tag each other it's to tease each other, like me making fun of his Movember mustache. I have tagged him in a baby post before, but that's more to make sure his friends/family that I haven't met can see it as well.

I have written on his wall for big events like birthdays/anniversaries before, but don't make an extra effort to do it and think it's kind of stupid, since I see him in person anyways.

I don't write overly mushy, lovey dovey messages to him. No offense to those who do it, and I have some wonderful friends who have great relationships who do it, but it always feels inauthentic and somewhat phony to me...I'd rather keep those feelings private and between just us.

Photos and check ins. Depending on what it is, he'll get tagged in something about Eli, but I don't obsessivley tag him in every single picture or status update I post about our kid. Occasionally I'll post a link or something to his wall so I don't forget to show him, but it's rare.

THIS!! I rarely post anything on facebook, so I tag DH even less than that. DH and I usually just sit around and make fun of the people who use facebook to constantly proclaim their love for each other...it's pathetic, frankly, and no one cares! Ha.

This, exactly. DH doesn't do anything on FB, so anything related to our daughter is typically tagged with him. Except I forgot to tag him in our pregnancy announcement post. Whoops.

I tag him in photos but that's mostly so his extended family can see pictures of DD.

My hubby doesn't have fb. When he did I never posted on his page. I rather talk to him in person

SS - DH doesn't have Facebook, but I refer to him every now and then.

DH rarely goes on his fb anymore these days.

DH hates facebook, so I tag him in a few photos here and there and sometimes a checkin, but not much. Sometimes we share articles on each other's walls during the work day but it's never anything weird. I hate the couples that get into love tests or fights on FB - I have a friend that broke off his engagement with his fiancé in a public Facebook convo on his wall. It was horrible. 

Holy crap... What a train wreck!!! That is awful. I would pee myself if I saw that. Then again, the couples who do write back and forth I hide- so I wouldn't see it anyway.

brideandbreve

I tag him in some photos of DS that I share, and I post a lot of stupid crap on his wall.

Yesterday, I posted 2 times on his wall. Stupid, non-sensical stuff. The first was a meme about bacon on a pizza, and the second time was when I realized I'm the only person who ever posts on his wall. I linked a clip of Dwight from "The Office" off YouTube where Dwight says, "Get a friend, loser."

I never put mushy stuff on there about DH. Nobody needs to see that mess.

My husband doesn't have facebook.  On our anniversary, I do post a status about our anniversary and how much I appreciate him, but that is about it.
