What would a girlfriend who loves you typically do when she's out with her friends? Would she text or send you photos and stuff?
There's no 'typical' answer to this question. Some will. Some won't. I expect most would send a text or two but otherwise concentrate on enjoying their time with their friends. But I wouldn't think anything of a girlfriend who sent photos, or who was not in contact at all. I assume you're asking this because your girlfriend has been with her friends and hasn't contacted you at all. In which case that's fine. She's focusing on her friends instead of you. Nothing wrong with that when she's on a night out with them.

It's my first time having a girlfriend, and yeah, I always do that to make sure she knows who I'm with or what the plans are with the boys. I kind of feel a bit worried and upset when she doesn't do this kind of stuff. I always feel this every time she hang outs with friends.

Why are you worried or upset when she doesn't text you when she's with her friends?

Idk I guess it’s just me but in our culture it’s important to let your close one knows what you’re up to, it could be texting or sent sth just to let that person know so they are less worry. This is like an Asian mom worry about their child going out late night even tho they’re a grown person.

I don't think worrying about your children being safe even when they're an adult is something exclusive to mothers, let alone Asian mothers.

It's obviously understandable that you would worry about your girlfriend's safety. But at the same time, when she is out with her friends you know who she is with, and probably roughly what she is doing and where she is. If it's something that bothers you then asking her to send you a text or two to confirm she's alright is reasonable, but I don't think she needs to be sending pictures as well. Ultimately she is with her friends and can and should be focusing on enjoying that time. Keeping you in the loop is fine up to a point, but not to the extent that it interferes with the time she's having with her friends.
