Dear Fonseca
My boyfriend refuses to post pictures of us on his Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages. When I asked him why, he said it's because he is a private person yet he posts pictures of everything else on his social media pages. Is this a red flag? My friends say he may be a 'player' and trying to have 'his cake and eat it too'. Do you think it's a red flag?
