The story

Me 24M and my gf 24 F have been in long distance relationship for 6 months. We are old friends but did not know each other much. We both know each other's parents and have met them but they have no idea about the relationship. We have met couple of times in these 6 months.

The issue is that she doesn't want to tell her friends about our relationship. Some of her female friends know but not her male friends. Her group has 7-8 female friends and 6 male friends out of which 3 are single and consider her single. She says she wants to keep things private nahi to najar lag jati hai. I dont believe in such things. I have tried to convince her twice as she is with these guys in college and sometimes hang out too. But she refuses saying that najar lag jaegi. I feel like this is major red flag. What do you think about the situation?

Isn't it a little weird that she only shares the news of your relationship with her female friends??? I mean, if you're in a committed relationship, shouldn't both sides be transparent, based on mutual respect and trust?? The whole "najar lag jati hai" thing can be significant to some folks but shouldn't it be balanced with being open about your life with those around you... It's understandable wanting some privacy, but when it's selective like this, it raises questions. Have you considered what her reasoning might really be?

Dude, if she's keeping it under wraps just for some of her friends and not all, maybe there's more to the story than "najar lag jati hai": is she worried about something else entirely?

i hear you man, but maybe she just prefers keeping some things to herself. not everyone thinks about it the same way.
