Getty A woman was left furious after her brother shared a photo of her on Facebook without her permission Venting about the situation on Mumsnet, she recalled having repeatedly told her family throughout a trip they took together not to post photos of her on social media "Whilst I shouldn't really have a reason as to why I don't want my pictures on FB etc. The main reason is for work, as my job is sensitive," she explained A woman is unleashing her rage after discovering a photo of her was posted on social media without her consent. Having seen the snap on Facebook, the woman penned a lengthyMumsnetpost admitting that she's unsure if she's "blowing this out of proportion." She recalled having told her family repeatedly throughout a weekend trip that they took together that she didn't want any pictures of her to be shared online. However, her brother put a group photo that included her on his Facebook Story. The woman said he removed it immediately when requested, but by then it had already been up for around five hours. "My mom has explained that he asked her first and she said do it as it is a nice family picture and will be up for only 24 hours as a result he put it up," the woman wrote. "I'm feeling upset that my wishes were ignored. For reference we are in our 30s not 12 years old." The PEOPLE Appis now available in the Apple App Store!

Getty "Whilst I shouldn't really have a reason as to why I don't want my pictures on FB etc. The main reason is for work as my job is sensitive," she continued. "My profile is locked down, privatised and not used but I can't guarantee the same for close family and friends…" The woman said her mom has been "gaslighting" her since the disagreement over the photo, accusing her of having a "personality disorder." She said her mom is also claiming that she doesn't want a photo with her family shared online because she's "ashamed" of them. "I did offer to get it printed and framed as an alternative so she can see it every day which I felt was a fair compromise, but no," the woman said. "Reading it back, it sounds like a stupid minor thing but has totally wound me up." Hundreds of people responded to the post, with the majority of commenters reassuring the woman that she hadn't behaved unreasonably. "YANBU [you are not being unreasonable]," one person said. "I myself don't like any photos of myself on SM [social media], etc, and request people not to post any, my sister used to be a pain with this. She used to like posting every aspect of her life on FB." "I do have a FB account but only because I volunteer for a dog rescue charity and they organise volunteer stuff through private groups on there," the same person continued. "But if you don't want them for a job-related reason that's even more important." Another chimed in, "I'm on your side op [original poster]. And you should be able to trust your family to respect your wishes but sadly they can't so I agree with pp that unfortunately it may be best to duck out of family photos in future."

"I also think it depends how sensitive your work is - there's quite a big range of how p----- off someone you've been in contact with might be. Without more details this does sound quite diva-ish."

It was a group photo up for 24 hours, you weren't tagged. I highly doubt anyone is scouring social media for photos to use against you. If you're that precious about it, come off socials altogether/refuse to be in photos." Read the original article onPeople
