Dating Dilemma: Only in a Web 2.0 World

Last night was my class reunion … my 20 year class reunion, but we aren’t going to dwell on that number.

Because he’s incredibly awesome, the guy agreed to go with me. I knew we’d have a good time because I’m pretty sure I’d enjoy just about anything if he were there. We did have fun, even with a few awkward moments like tackling the topic of how I introduce him … we landed on boyfriend, which I guess is appropriate after four months of dating. And despite our conversation, he was called “Amber’s husband” about a dozen times, which didn’t seem to faze him too badly.

It was only afterward that I was a little flummoxed … to tag or not to tag? That was the question. Most of my friends know I’m dating someone, but I’m not sure about his. Tagging the pics on Facebook sort of changes that.

I debated whether it was proper etiquette to ask him if he minded. In the end, I decided I was way over-thinking it, not to mention the fact that we looked good and I wanted to show off to my friends and his … so I just did it.

What do you think the right approach is when it comes to dating and tagging?

    Amber,

    You both look fabulous! And of course you should tag! You do over-think things.

  2. Deborah Says:

    Both of you look great! I think it’s okay to tag at this point in time. BTW, if he doesn’t like being tagged, I think he has the option of removing it.

    Finally, a pic! You look absolutely adorable together… and I’m so impressed that he braved a reunion with you. And Deborah’s right, he can untag himself. : )

    WOW Amber! What a hottie, he is very handsome and you make a lovely couple. I think this is an appropriate avenue to share you personal happiness!

    A great pic! Wow… I am so behind on my computer time. Congrats on “coming out” to the world… and if it feels right, you should tag away! I can’t believe it was your 20th reunion… that means mine is coming up soon, too! Oh, and by the way, I was also impressed that you used the term flummoxed. I am too sure what it means, and yet it sounded so appropriate!
