New Again Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 This is very random. Was on bf's computer (with his permission to do what I wanted to do, so he knew I would see his photos). We both have Macs, and I was using iPhoto (not Preview), where bf hadn't created any folders, so all of his pics were on the same thing. I scrolled up higher than I needed to (that's the snoopy part), and saw a few pics that I have a question about - maybe surprisingly the photos I am curious about aren't the drunk pics of him with random girls at bars He had only recently gotten his computer when he and I first met - and the first photos he had were ones of me - that he took from my Facebook and MySpace profiles. They aren't "sexy" photos - some are group shots of my friends and me, some are just of me that I used as profile pics or whatever. And this is from when we were just friendly, not dating yet. He hasn't saved any pics like that since we started dating (I'm guessing because we started taking pics of us together). On the one hand, I think that's kind of cute. On the other hand, I'm kinda like, huh? I've never saved photos of someone like that. I've never had the desire to, but if I thought about it, I wouldn't, since they're online to see anyways... So I'm wondering how normal that is. Do lots of guys (or girls) do that?
Els Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 He had a crush on you, and that was his way of acting on it. Haven't you done anything similar with people you've had a crush on? Perhaps not photos, but maybe recalling every last conversation with them, or memorizing their phone number, etc?
Author New Again Posted November 6, 2009 Author Posted November 6, 2009 When you put it that way...in that stage of our relationship I saved nearly every text and online conversation we had! :love: There's no doubt in my mind that he's had a high interest level in me from the beginning, and that now he just loves me to pieces.
tigressA Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 I think that's really cute! Social networking sites have changed not only the relationship game, but how crushes are acted on as well.
DanielMadr Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 I once saved pictures of my boss from a company party....I placed them strategicaly...and when audit came and I was summoned to him, because I had "personal stuff on company property server harddrive"...I got promoted. Next time on his computer check his Internet Browser temporary files....then you might get spooked up:p

SincereOnlineGuy Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Wow, this query surprises me a bit. For why wouldn't it be natural for me to have randomly encountered just any woman from the real world, and learned some small bit of info about her, and then simply wanted to compile much more about her (while imagining myself lucky enough to be by her side)? A person would be crazy to rely on always having access to one's Facebook page, or the photos one cherished the most of the particular muse. So why shouldn't he have instinctively, and reflexively taken your group photos, and saved them to his computer to reduce his risks? In answer to your question: ... a lot of everybody does that !! This indicates nothing beyond the fact that he is really into you, and that he has been from day one. (thank heaven you didn't find anything outside of that, while snooping on his computer) Now, um, stop snooping before you get yourself into trouble. PS - your suspicions about his not needing to save every document from every staff meeting at your work anymore, ETC. (heavy on the "etc.") ... are surely right on target.

SincereOnlineGuy Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 He hasn't saved any pics like that since we started dating (I'm guessing because we started taking pics of us together). On the one hand, I think that's kind of cute. Because he now gets to spend time with the real you, and because he is beginning to really believe that it is happening, he is no longer having to resort to just crush on you from afar while compiling any image of you or any word written about you. It was normal, earlier, before he started dating you.
