Social networking is something that most people are into because it's a great way to keep in touch with everyone. When you're a couple who are into the social networking scene, there are a few warning signs to be on the lookout for. Here are 4 of those warning signs.
Not only won't he list you as his girlfriend, but he refuses to set his status to "in a relationship." This is cause for worry. While some people don't like to make every detail of their life public, this is one that doesn't exactly invade privacy. It lets people know that you're taken and not single. You have to wonder why he doesn't want people to know that he's in a relationship.
Your boyfriend set up a second account on the same site, but won't add you to it. This is another action that should worry you. Maybe he made an excuse like he's only using it for his job and doesn't want to get the two mixed up. That is still no reason to leave you off of the list unless he doesn't want you to see something.
If he wants zero pictures on his account at all, this request makes complete sense. On the other hand, if he posts pictures of himself and asks that you don't post any or tag him, this is suspicious behaviour. This makes it look like he doesn't want people to know that you are together.
You glanced at your boyfriend's friend list and noticed that it mostly contains women. What's more, they are women that you've never heard of from destinations all over the world. When you ask him about them he'll claim they are people he met somewhere, but won't go into specifics or tell you anything about them.
While it's not good to be paranoid about every move that your boyfriend makes on social networking sites, there are some actions that require further investigation. Not everything is a sign that your relationship is doomed, but when something makes you wonder, it's worth looking into.

"He won't put you on ANY of his social networking accounts at all"
unless, like me, there is zero social networking site/service activity, I would say that not adding you at all would be a bad sign.
and yes, no facebook, twitter, reddit, linkedin, instagram, g+ ... [ ad nausium ] accounts for me.
I would rather hear about my friends and loved ones day in person than through intrusive technologies that interrupt your day to inform you.
