My Friend Should Meet/Know Who My Boyfriend Is :D

No... For all I care... not interested to know their personal matter- it's their choice.. so, Mind your own, I mind my own...

I honestly would feel bad if I will not be informed by a friend about his new bf. because as a practice, we normally share it with friends. maybe the family will not possibly be one of the first to know, but friends are expected to be the first. but if I happen to encounter a friend who did not share, I would feel bad. But if she can already explain to me a justifiable reason, then I would understand.

Hi bhaby, If they have not shared their news then I will not be aware of it. lol. I think it's fine if they want to keep to themselves at first but it should not be a complete secret...that sounds a bit spooky.

Honey beti Our cultures differ, none from my family had premarital relationships and all marriages were arranged marriages. Well if my friends don't want to share about relationship status i will not bother at all. Hugs from Maa

I don't see the need to tell anyone, unless if (a part) of my children is involved (the ones living in my house and they will meet). I think a relationship should be steady before I would introduce him to anyone. I also would not do that official or so. It's not important to me or to my family/kids either. If it's that way, it's that way and sooner or later they will meet (before we probably discussed/talked about him plenty enough). I never ask about other people their family or the relationship they have with them. It's fine if they want to talk about them, if they ask me I will answer but it's still private for me. It would be different if we live together for longer or are married. I learned through the years that it's not important or gives more value. I also learned that not everybody is a talker, everybody needs some privacy plus there is no need to like or love the whole family of your bf/partner/husband. I also don't see the need to do so the other way round. Partners should be free (and respected) plus be given time to decide when to introduce, what to tell and who to visit. It's also not a must I always join or they always join me.

Many of my friends and relatives who communicate via Facebook don't share everything about their lives on Facebook. I have one friend of the family and she posts a lot about her daily life - sometimes I know what she ate for breakfast. What she doesn't share much on Facebook is her daughter. She has one child who lives with her dad. So, I don't know much about this friend's family situation as she doesn't share about it on Facebook. Facebook is the only way we stay in touch at this time. Facebook didn't exist 10 years ago, so there are still other ways to communicate with each other. In other words, we don't need to bare our souls on Facebook. You can share what you are comfortable to share with others on Facebook. I respect the privacy of my friends and family and what they want to share about themselves on Facebook and they also respect my privacy. So, I would not be disappointed if someone wanted to keep their relationship status personal and private on Facebook.

Hi bhaby No hmm why should I it's their life not mine. Only if you're the one who will keep not telling with me I will be Much more disappointed.  Or that's why you're being very busy lately and no time to chat with me.

Why should I? But to tell you frankly from the depth of my heart I will feel something and will always feel why they have done it this way, when I am open to them? But you know we cannot forced other to share their relationship with others even we are the family members or friends as such as many people likes to keep such relationship secret in the beginning

I might feel a bit disappointed, but then, it's their choice. Good luck on their relationship!

No it's their own business,if they want to share with me ,ok,if not,it's also ok,i will pretend i know nothing.

No i wont be disappointed at all. Because its their relationship and they have every right to share about it when they want to. If they are not comfortable to speak about it then we should not force them. We should respect their decision if we are true friends .

I wouldn't be disappointed if they didn't share their relationship status with me, sure it would be nice, but maybe the person has a reason. I see on FB some times where a person has in their status,"in a relationship" then a week later they're "single". So if some one doesn't share their relationship status with me, maybe they're not sure if it's going to work out so they keep it to themselves.

Maybe they are waiting for the right time to tell their relationship. Anyway, it is their choice.
