A What Would You Do question...

A What Would You Do question...

I know a lot of us are planning to or already have posted their wedding pictures on Facebook, it seems only natural to post them to share with everyone.

But does anyone feel concerned that some people that they wouldn't otherwise want to see them might? Like, you would feel bad and mean and guilty if they did? Would you go out of your way to use the privacy block so they couldn't see the albums, even knowing that they'd see the comments your other friends were making and probably figure out that they were being blocked?

Am I really still 12 years old?

Just curious if anyone else has these same feelings. Long time ago, but still feel a twinge of guilt, because I kind of did the same thing that was done to me and I know how messed up I got about it.

While I'm not going out of my way to shove my wedding down anyone's throat, I'm not going to put that much thought into it. If I put some photos up and people see them, great! If they don't want to see them, they shouldn't look!

There are people I don't really want to see my pictures but I don't really care at the same time.. and if there are people that I think the pictures might hurt...then they shouldn't look at them and if they do its their own fault!

thats just my opinion

i am a little confused about your ? ... you dont want people to see your pics bc you feel bad for them bc you couldnt invite them ?

Re: A What Would You Do question...

I guess part of my issue is that the only person I'd want to shove it down their face won't look, and the person I wouldn't want to do it will. Sigh...I guess I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. I had my dress album blocked when I still had it before FH joined, so I'll probably do the same again.

I might be cold, but sometimes I think I'm too soft

Hmmm...I didn't even think about this. If they look they look, if they don't they don't. I almost don't feel bothered either way.
I know there is a bunch of people I prob should have invited...some of my sorority sisters...who are on my facebook. But honestly, I don't talk to them on there..or on the phone, so if they are insulted, let them. But I like to show pics, I don't plan to make them private or anything.

I think I have a vague idea of what you are referring to and honestly, it is your wedding. If someone gets upset over that, then let them. I really would not put too much thought into crazy privacy blocks.

No, someone I knew long ago before FH that had other intentions besides being a friend...didn't have the heart to delete him off FB, even though he got really creepy and hurtful at the end.

My facebook account is set up so only my friends can view my pictures. If someone is a friend why would I block them??

I am going to post my pic because there will always be someone who couldnt make it or someone you couldnt invite who might want to look at them. If someone doesnt want to look at them they dont have to. I dont feel that it is shoving the wedding down their throats I am going to be proud of my wedding pics and what not.

Look, I have 300+ friends on FB. Obviously most of them knew they weren't being invited to my wedding. I also post pics of me out to dinner with friends (not all 300+ people were invited...) etc. I would assume your FB friends know by now that you are engaged... so seeing some wedding pics are the next natural progression.

I am concerned about the same thing because there will always be those few 'gray-area' people that you sorta could have gone either way with (in terms of inviting them) but we didn't invite them, and THOSE are the couple that its awkward with, in terms of them seeing the pics, right? I might just try to have friends put them all on 1 kodak or shutterfly website.. not sure yet

I suppose I wasn't clear, but I'm not talking about people that could have been invited but weren't. Just people from the past that I'd feel a little bad flaunting my happiness in front of. I don't know if that has any baring on the answers.

Im a little confused... who dont you want looking, an ex boyfriend or like someone who wasnt invited

I am putting my pics on facebook and everyone can look. I only have my albums available to my friends only.... but somehow on facebook you can look through albums from people who arent even on your friends list sometimes- its weird.

Why should you have to lock your album so no one can see? You shouldnt have to do that. Put it up and let everyone see how beautiful you are going to look

If its bc of an ex. well then thats too bad. I dated my ex for like 7 yrs and I dont care if he looks, that was the past. I am in love with FH (which we have been together for 5 yrs) and I dont have anything to hide.

If its bc of someone who wasnt invited....well they prob werent invited for a reason hehe

Delete him as a friend....because going forward there's going to be lots of 'flaunting of your happiness'....pictures with DH, your future children ect. Good opportunity to purge your friends list if you're uncomfortable.

I see what you mean! I would just post them. You can't worry about everyone else's feelings. You're happy and you should flaunt that!
