Should I be upset with my boyfriend?

Should I be upset with my boyfriend because I just found a photo online him having his arm around another girl last year while being with me as he didn't tell me about it?

What sort of arm was it? Were they extremely touchy in the photo or was it like an awkward friend hug? Did you know each other at the time? atm it seems like u shouldn't be upset tho

Arm around her neck and her head on his arm. I didn't see them take the photo but we was still dating at the time and we still are but when we first got together this girl kept telling him not to be with me

What’s his explanation, doesn’t seem so serious on the face of it

I haven't spoken to him about it as he would say I'm crazy and everything

Probably begin with asking who she is before jumping to conclusions, it might just be an old friend

Could be a family member. Explore further. If not related then perhaps speak to him about how upsetting he had me you feel.

It's okay to feel the way you feel. I would talk to your boyfriend about how it has made you feel and have a mature conversation about it. Something to consider - are you generally uncomfortable about your partner having their arms around girls generally? If this is the case, you may need to communicate this very clearly with your boyfriend so that it doesn't happen again.

They had a relationship before he got with me

so they are exes. hmm and she originally told him to not be with you? I think this girl may be jealous of your relationship with him. Do you know if your boyfriend and his ex ended on good terms or bad terms? I suggest to calmly speak with him about it 1 on 1 without making assumptions right off the bat, let him know that you have concerns about this because keeping it within yourself will just leave you with no real answer.
