It may seem relatively trivial, but me and my girlfriend have been dating for nearly 4 months, and it still says shes 'Single' on her Myspace account. It does say shes only looking for 'Friends', but I've asked her if she'd change it a few times and shes said she would, but she still hasn't.. Should I really bring something like this up to her again, or just leave it alone?

You're not a very secure person are you?

Four months is not a long time. Maybe she's still feeling things out between the two of you. I understand how you feel though. Talk to her about how she sees the two of you. If she says she sees you guys as a couple then suggest that her status should be known as being involved with someone on all fronts. If she's still feeling things out, give her time and ask her again or she may change it on her own as the two of you grow closer.

I wouldn't freak out about it if this is the only sign. But if there are other things going on, it could just all be part of a big picture. You've asked her to change it and she didn't, which seems like a relatively simple thing to do. But still, in the world of real problems, this is a stupid internet thing. Don't base your whole relationship around this one detail.

ah yes, the old "single" status problem, well, other ppl dont think of it as a big deal, if its not such a big deal, then why not change it? nearly 4 months should be more than enough time to be PROUD to be taken, or "in a relationship" i say you should either A) bring it up once more and see what happens or B) change YOUR status to single, see how she feels, or C) TELL people ur single, thats the same thing as putting urself as "single" in the cyber world of today,

I don't think it's trivial at all. If you're in a relationship, I can certainly understand that you would want to know the other person is committed, too. But if she is still not changing it, there may be a message for you in that. It could be she is still not sure.

You should bring it up again and tell her to honor her word because it is bothering you that she hasn't and to keep down conflict in your relationship you would like her to do so
asap.
Don't leave it alone because your not finish or acceptable of the result at this moment.
Don't walk away from something you know would cause friction and problems in your relationship if your dating you should be able to do something as simple as communicate.

What? Does she wear a sign around her neck or something? OHHHH, Myspace. She's not going to change it. It is this weird Internet anonymity thing. She can be Xena, the sexy, single, warrior princess on the Internet. Just let it go; seriously not worth the fight it will become.

Leave it alone, your world does not revolve around MySpace, that is just a front ppl lie on there like whoa so if that is what she wants and deep down inside she knows she is with you and that is what counts. Do not let Myspace create an unneccessary conflict with you and her.

She is in a relationship, so to me, she should change it because guys have a tendancy to search for single women and as long as it says that, she will come up in the results. When I had a b.f, I considered myself "In a Relationship" and I changed that on my myspace, but now that we're "just friends", I changed it back to single. I think she should change it out of respect for herself and respect for you.

Of course not. If she matters to you, and you matter to her, then she should respect your relationship, and if it is in a high enough level to be considered a relationship, then you have every right to want this of her.
I think that you should bring this to her attention; and tell her that if she really cares about you and respects you, then she would change it. After all, it is just a small request of you, but it would sure mean a lot.

List everything on your own to whatever she has, and see if it affects her lol. It's being pretty mutual that way so neither of you can really get mad at one another. But with something as trivial as myspace already is...............I wouldn't think much of it, but yeah, just talk with her....calmly....and ask her of her reasonings behind never changing it.
