| Guy I recently started dating sent me a text wishing me a good day and sent me a selfie of him at work (nothing sexual). This is kind of weird to me- is this the norm these days? Is he expecting me to take a selfie? |
It is pretty common. I got one the other day from someone I haven't even met yet. You don't have to send one back. But if you look cute, you might want to. |
| If a guy is into selfies and takes them for mundane stuff like simply being in the office, that says a lot about his ego and how highly he thinks of himself (not in a good way). |
| I think it’s cute and I’m an Old. |
No. It means words of affirmation are his love language, so he is fishing for a compliment. But I don't mean that in a bad way. Sending selfies and compliments is bonding -- it's an activity you only do with each other right now (presumably). |
| Was it a funny one? Or more interesting than unintentional blue steel? Did he look happy, or super posed? |
I wrote the above post. I'd also add it's bonding to show his world so you can picture him at work. That makes people feel closer, when they get a glimpse into someone else's life. |
What a weird, psycho-analystic answer. The guy sent her a selfie, why can't if be just that?? |
| OP, I think it's weird, too |
| Sometimes even my friends send random selfies and I think why tf are you sending me a picture of yourself? If a guy I started seeing did this, I'd think it's weird. I wouldn't stop seeing him over it, but I'd definitely think it's weird. |
.I think you need to go touch grass... It's weird op. He may not be an egomaniac but it's idd |
You're high right now, right? |
| Totally normal thing to do. If you don't like it, don't send him a photo back. You're not obligated. |
Honest question: if you send selfies, why do think other people want to see a picture of you?? |
If you mean high EQ, yes. |
