wife hiding friends on facebook?
I confronted my wife about how upset I was that she had dinner and drinks with an ex boyfriend while on a recent out of town trip. She was apologetic and said she didn't realize it would bother me so much or she wouldn't have done it. I mentioned during our conversation that it kind of bugs me a she she is friends with this guy as well as several other ex's on facebook. The next day she reset her facebook page so nobody can see who she is friends with. Should I let it go as "none of my business" or should I ask her why she feels a need to hide who she is fb friends with now?

The fact that she is hiding her friends and having dinner with an ex boyfriend says it all. Your wife is acting suspiciously and for good reason. When you hiding things on a social network it's never good. I would install a program on the computer without her knowing to track her daily activities and who she is talking to. You should also keep track of her phone since she wants to hide things.

If this was me doing this, my husband would definitely not "mind his own business"....I mean...this IS YOUR BUSINESS. Your wife should not feel the need to hide anything from you.
I have ex boyfriends on my page. I don't feel like that should really matter since they are ex boyfriends from high school so it's not like it matters anymore 9--6 years later. However, I did date a guy when my husband, who was my boyfriend at the time, broke up for a short time. I don't feel the need to add this person on my facebook because .... 1. why do I need to speak with him? and 2. I know it would make my husbnad upset.
Your wife knows that she's doing something wrong and she is hiding it and you should be concerned. That doesn't mean that she's necessarily cheating on you, but she is being dishonest, which isn't good either.

It is your business and what kind of spouse does that? You should have never married her if she can't let go of the past. Everything your wife does is your business, just like its her business what you do. If I were you I'd put my foot down and tell her like it is.... she needs to choose her husband or her ex boyfriends. It's seems as if she's already made the choice, but tell her anyways. And follow through with what you say or you're a punk and deserve to be treated like that. And since she's gonna give you an excuse..... there are none.

It certainly is your business. And no, you should not just let it go. If dinner and drinks with her ex was really no big deal, then why wouldn't she run it by you first? I'm not implying anything here, I'm not going to say, "Oh! She's cheating on you!" because I myself am friends with one or two of my exes, but I go above and beyond to reassure my boyfriend that I love him and he knows I would never, ever mess around or lie about anything. But we are adults and understand that sometimes, even if a relationship ends, doesn't mean that the friendship has to. She might think you are being insecure, but if she's hiding things, why shouldn't you be insecure? She might feel like you are checking up on her and trust me, she will grow to resent you for it, and when women start resenting a man they are with, that is when they will start cheating. So it sounds like it's time for a very, very long talk. Good luck to you.

A marriage has to be based on trust or you have nothing. Seeing an ex- while you were on a business trip looks bad even if it was perfectly innocent. I don't think it's too much to ask to have her remove all of her ex's from her facebook and other social networking sites. Remember, it's all about trust. Hiding her facebook friends is a very bad sign. She should be willing to share all of her passwords with you- no secrets.

i do have to say, & NOT in her defense by any means, that i got a msg when i logged in just yesterdqy that you should make your site more secure adn asked if you wanted to do it now, i declined for the time, but noticed that a friend of a friend who's site i used to be able to see was now secure.
now as for her eating dinner with an ex, her theory was probably that if you don't find out, she wouldn't tell you, but since you did, it was easier than asking if you minded in the first place. i'd tell her that if she wants to be on facebook you are fine with it, but you are also getting an account, and assume that she will be friending you when you send the request. then, i'd go on (if i were you) and catch up with your OLD GIRLFRIENDS!!

I would not let that go.
Instead of putting you IN the loop and helping you feel like your feelings matter, she did the reverse and shut you out completely so she wouldn't have to be confronted with the situation. That made a statement for sure. The question is --- do you trust her? I think her having drinks with an ex without telling you on a business trip is quite shadey ---- very shadey. Neither me or my husband would ever except that behavior to be ok.
Seriously, I got off facebook after being annoyed with my husband's ex's immaturity. She repeatedly made shitty comments to people regarding me. My husband felt he had to defend me, I got irritated, he got irritated --- eventually I said that I didn't need that high school drama anymore. I am SO much happier without facebook. he kept his for some busiiness networking stuff he needs to control-- but I trust him and I know if he was going to step out and cheat on me --- facebook wouldn't make a difference.

Theres no such thing is '' It's non of my Business '' in marriage !! Yall should know everything about each other ( i don't mean to the point it's sickening ).
Shes obviously got something to hide ? and seriously you believed her when she said '' i didn't know talking and going out with my ex would bother you '' ?? My @$$.
i suggest you be a man and go tell her '' OPEN YOUR FACEBOOK NOW !! '' if you be to easy and stubborn Shes gonna cheat on you. One thing leads to a nother, Believe me.
and tell her to her face '' I Don't TRUST YOU ''
let her now !! Maybe then she'll stop hiding things from you and feel bad.

i have facebook and he doesn't. My page is always logged into. He could look at what I am doing at any time if he really wanted, but I have nothing to hide. I would probably ask her what is going on. Or start your own page, and ask her to be your friend. You'll find out what is going on then.

She is your wife so it is your business. Its so immature that spouses do that, hide their friends lists, change their relationship status, not accept the significant other as friend on all these sites. Tell its just ridiculous and lame, as if hiding the friends wouldn't make you even more suspicious. I always thought that married people don't have anything to hide from each other.
