Our relationship is no secret on a very large scale. And I can agree that perhaps its just not his style. But it still hurts a little, and makes me wonder if he is trying to make it seem as though our relationship isn't what it is to certain people.
If you have a child with him and he's posting THAT, it must be pretty clear you're a girlfriend, at the least. I'd be less concerned about the social media side and why he's not more committed in general to your family.

I agree. And I think that bigger issue is what's making feel as though this is an issue.
I'm pretty sure that cropped picture isn't the only thing making you feel like you are in second place to your shared child in your boyfriend's mind.
I agree. If my husband did that to me on Facebook, I wouldn't even notice. But that's because our relationship is solid. I don't think this relationship is solid.
I have cropped my wife out of pictures, but it wasn't to avoid others knowing about her it was simply because what I was trying to show in that picture was better served by cropping it to be the focus of it instead of everything else else in it.
...Your issues are not just pictures. You would have had to be looking for this stuff in the way you see it to have seen it the way you did.
My boyfriend doesn't post any pictures of me on his social media - which to date hasn't really bothered me much. But he recently had a picture of our daughter up where she was sitting in my lap, and he actually cropped my face out of the picture. I said something to him, and his response was "how can I get her face and your hair". But my hair was in a bun, and clearly in no way obstructing her face.
I told him I feel like a closet girlfriend. He said everyone knows your girlfriend. What do you want, me to hold your hand in town with a white picket fence? :/ I don't think he has to profess our relationship in an over the top way, but i dont want to feel like he is downplaying it either.
Should i have an issue with this, or is it really no big deal?
I say if your good for him to have a child with you should be good for him to show off. Your his child mother a picture of you and your daughter should be nothing to upload.
I don't have an issue with him posting pictures of her. I post pics of him, and her and us. My issue is that I was clearly cropped out. Why? That's what hurt.
I think you know the answer. Why do you keep asking as if you don't know?
It's obvious to most everyone that you are not the important one in this relationship.
