rant

i wish my bf would take pictures with me.


there i said it :(


he doesn't like taking pictures, but still he would do it with friends if he was on a vacation. so why not take pictures with me on special occasions at least?

its such a little thing, i know, but it really, really gets to me sometimes.

i want something you know, to look back on later. the way i see it is, the first couple years when you're in a relationship is when its fun and thrilling right? so why can't i at least have some tangible memento of it?



anyway......just had to get that out of my system.

watercoloursky said...

hmm how do you make him do it? :S

my bf doesn't like it if anyone tells him what to do ...which i can understand, buuut... still.

i know what you mean - i've been dating my bf for almost 4 years and we only have a few pictures together, either from his sister's wedding or a family trip to the beach :(

prob'ly he doesn't like taking "formal" pictures, but doesn't mind "candid" pictures (like the ones he takes with his friends).

meh. just make an appt and drag him there.

let me at 'em! I will knock some sense into him!

*hugs* I wouldn't worry! Men are so strange! Maybe he just isn't the mushy sort! Tell him how you feel and discuss it with him! if it hurts you he should know about it and at least make some effort towards taking a cute pic here and there!

When all else fails Threaten to kick his butt ;)

=)

Chin up lovie!

mayaari: awww we're in the same boat :(

gezebel: oh no i wouldn't want formal studio-y pics either :) but he doesn't like 'candid' pics of us either.

the muse: LOL thank you :) you're so funny! that made me feel better :D

he does know how i feel...sorta but i think he doesn't understand that it means that much to me.

:( I'm sorry to that. Has he ever told you why he won't take pics with you? My boyfriend will take pics with me, but he always (always) blinks at the flash.

I tried to take a pic yesterday and had the cam behind us, he flipped out! Gotta be a guy thing >:(

Mary said...

ohh that blows...I'm such a camwhore that I can't imagine now snapping away constantly. My bf first found it weird when we started dating, but I think he's vain enough to know that he's quite photogenic so he doesn't mind.

My suggestion would be to secretly take pictures of him, and gush on and on about how GORGEOUS he looks in the picture, he's so cute, he looks like a model, yada yada :p maybe he'll come around with enough flattery!

Vanessa said...

HAHAHHA my BF was the same way, he was always like "NO PICTURES!" and just freak out about it and I was like what is the big effin' deal dude!??? it's just a picture! So now I just make him do it I do the whole "pleaseeeeeeeeee....for me? " and the puppy face haha, works like a charm! And now he takes pictures, BUT makes silly faces in ALL of them! So I am still working on that! LOL.

(g)ezebel said...

hmm. well, then my next suggestion is THE BEST WAY ever: guilt trip him into taking a pic. *evil grin* pout, tear up, etc. trust me, it always works. :0)

watercoloursky said...

psychoexgf: umm...he basically said he wasn't the type that likes to be in pictures...

ilurvemakeup: lol i guess so :(

mulzanza: lol i don't think flattery works on him haha but i'll give it a try :)

vanessa: haha thanks for sharing! perhaps i will have to follow gezebel's advice...lol

gezebel: girl, you're evil! :P i'll see how desperate things get lol

thank you all for the kind comments! :D i'm going to work on it when he gets back from his vacation ;)

Fei said...

Is it weird that my bf and I are the opposite? I don't like to take pictures with him whereas he loves when we do. LOL.

watercoloursky said...

haha i guess to each their own then :) at least the guy gets to do the begging :D

alien man?! said...

omgosh, that's not a little thing to me! i'd be pretty upset if my man didn't want to take pix on special occasions either!! he might as well be saying he doesn't care to remember these moments! omgosh tell him how you feel!

awww i like taking my pics with my bf, he tired when i go camera crazy lol. i think he'll eventually give in after some persuasion..?

watercoloursky said...

alienman: i'm sure he knows it means a lot to me, but i think he doesn't understand why ... :(

nicnic: haha i guess pictures seem to be more of a girl thing :)

yeah i hope he'll give in....
