I had a conversation on the phone earlier and to sum it all up was about…”Is it wrong to post your body(sometimes almost nude) on social media even though you have a loving partner?” My answer was no it’s not wrong if the loving partner is aware and supports their decisions. His answer was no way, he thinks it diminishes the relationships and a breakup is bound to happen in the future. I think his beliefs are slightly outdated or maybe I’m just misinformed on what is ”trust” because if it were me, I wouldn’t care if strangers are jerking it through the screen(I consider it a compliment to them and me) its not in-person so why should it bother you?

It’s not wrong unless it goes against your relationship agreements.
How does he feel about you showing skin in public? At the beach? Anyone can take a pic of you there. Also the title is… misleading. And no I don’t think it’s wrong if your boundaries are set that way from the start. If before we dated you thirsted over my bikini pics online it’s not going to stop just because we’re official. If that was never the case, you can make an argument for it, but at the end it’s not your choice. You can choose to leave if that’s what you want though. You being used in a general term, obv.
Marriage is the most *otherish* situation I’ve ever placed myself into besides being a parent.
Everything I do, or don’t do, is to keep my wife happy.
She gets to do whatever pleases her.
>I’m just misinformed on what is “trust”
Allowing your partner to post nudes doesn’t mean you trust them more. There’s this weird brag with people in poly or open relationships about how they’re better or more trusting because they allow extramarital sexual attention.
Relationships just have different boundaries. It doesn’t mean you have more or less trust or are more or less likely to fail.
A person has every right to post thirst traps on social media but their loving partner better not look at thirst traps on said social media.
This circle jerk pretty much sums up the sub.
