So after I dumped the man I was dating, I understand that (background: he friended a number of my girlfriends on facebook, a few who I had introduced him to and many more, out of state that made no sense) he's been out & about with the local women. Not my business; kinda funny in a high school way but this man is over 50. Just curious if this behavior is typical in dating today?

you dumped him, so he can do as he pleases. Why do you care? is he dating your fb friends you mean?

I understand he can do as he pleases, they are friends within my circle of girlfriends that he wouldn't otherwise have met, one of them already had a bad experience with him. Not my problem, just sayin'.

Isn't this a strategy that some people employ? Get to know all people because they know more people who are potential dates?

I dont think its abnormal. He met few women through you, and now he is capitalizing on those opportunities. maybe he's trying to make you jealous, although for a 50 yo man that would be rather silly IMO.

Silly behavior 4 sure. I had heard through the grapevine this was his m.o.; now I believe it. No wonder he never introduced me to any of his male friends/kept all his friends except for mutuals hidden on his fb.

Another reason not to add people you date to FB. Too much drama.

People are weird, what can you do. Even knowing that, i always try to find something positive about everyone that crosses my path. Why did you dump him btw?

I think all dating behavior is curious but why would you care who he dates after you dumped him. If your friends didn't learn from you what he was like it is there problem. I'm curious why you would waste time and brain cells even thinking about this issue let alone posting it.
