^Opening up your relationship to the public/facebook puts everything you do in a more critical light, as well as random do-gooders feeding you questionable information regarding your partner i.e. 'seeing' them somewhere with someone else.

Maybe you don't believe in this, but a lot of middle eastern cultures / indians believe in "Nazar" or the evil-eye. It's a popular superstition that suggests unlucky/unfortunate events will occur if you attract the attention of particular people by flaunting/showing off your good fortune/loving partner/monetary wealth/etc.

It's one thing to put up a picture of you and your girl because you love her and you wanna tell the whole world, it's another to do it to show the world how 'great' your life is or to show other people that she's taken. There should be a level of trust in an adult relationship wherein both parties understand that they both could be with anyone else but they choose to be with each other regardless of that. Facebook is just an online profile -- how will people that meet her randomly on the street know that she's not taken? You don't force her to wear a ring on her ring finger so why force her to list her relationship status

just saiyyan, OT from OP's post but food for thought
