[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It won't change. He may or may not know or care that it is important to you, but you cannot compete with whatever he imagines might have been with his wife. If it bothers you, end the relationship now and move on.

Yup! This is what I'm thinking. It's been 3 years. I thought he was ready to move on because he aggressively pursued a relationship with me after a decent amount of time.

Posting pics on her birthday and death date are bad enough. But understandable. But this guy will post on a random Wednesday night![/quote]

You can't love two people simultaneously?  Don't you think he misses her every day, especially since his kids with her are teens and older?   Will he always love his wife?  Yes.  Will he always miss her?  Yes.  Having a healthy relationship with you will not change these first two things.

He may be posting these pictures for his kids, his/her family and friends as well as for himself.  Not posting pictures you as a couple is the most helpful guide as to the state of your relationship.  Complaining about his FB profile makes you sound like a high schooler and not a mature woman.

Take Facebook out of the equation.  Is he kind and thoughtful to you, does he enjoy being with you and take the initiative for dates etc.  Do you have physical chemistry?  Have you had a frank discussion about the future of the relationship and whether your expectations match?  Are you expecting marriage?  He may never want to re-marry or he may not be ready to be married.

Stop trying to intuit things from FB.  TALK to him--about your relationship and do not bring up FB and that there are no pictures of you as a couple.  [/quote]
