I find that people tend to be in the "talking" phase with multiple people. I kind get why, but it makes me so uncomfortable. I like to be the "apple of someone's eye" and I get pretty jealous. I'm not ashamed to admit. Jealousy is a normal and perfectly human reaction, a flaw we all have little to no control over.
Myself personally, when I'm "talking" to someone I'm pretty exclusive about it. Once I'm smitten, my eyes only see but one person, and I couldn't even dare dream of breathing near another man. I'm too cheesy for words.
I was once talking to a guy, and when I found out I wasn't the only girl he was talking to, I got so angry and upset. I've decided that if I have to compete, I have already lost. The idea that i was just a fish grouped with other fish, his affection was the bait, and he was the fisherman waiting for one of us to bite.
"Why do guys "talk" to other girls?
Because humans are social beings.
Jealousy regarding conversing with other humans is NOT the norm, and it is more than a flaw that you have no control over.
Have you considered therapy about it?
Assuming you mean "romantic talking," unless you are exclusive with someone, I don't see why "talking" to other people is a problem. Some people like to play the field and others like to focus on one person at a time. You are a one person at a time woman, that's fine, but you can't expect each man you date to conform to your way of thinking so early in the dating. Or if you do, and you will only date a man who dates one woman at a time early on, be prepared to have a limited field of men to date.
If you are asking about just friendly talking normal human interaction, I agree with Pitt Chick.

The talking phase as in the getting to know you phase.
You know you're not really official, but you're on that path of being a possible romantic partner.
Are you one of those sorts of women who doesn't secretly talk to a ton of other guys via social media--you know, posting pics and counting the 'Likes' from the orbiters--while some guy thinks you're official and exclusive? You mean--gasp--attention from one guy is enough for you?!?!?
Oh my god, the temperature in hell must've dropped.

That is different, though. Seeking attention and talking to a man are not the same. With today's social media, a girl can crave all the attention she wants without saying a thing. To have admirers is one thing, to actually acknowledge them? That's another.
This is insane! So if you are getting to know someone, he can't talk to anyone else? If a guy said this, he'd be charged with stalking and you would call him horrible names.

I can go with that--as long as the woman isn't messaging other guys and texting the hot co-worker who pretends to give a damn. If she's so much as texting another guy or sending pm's on FB then she can't complain about the guy 'talking' to other girls.
And it doesn't matter if he's actually dating these women or not--some women would have a problem with their man so much as liking his female friends' beach pics, though they live a million miles away.
I think she gets that--she's just not liking the fact that he has other options, as I'm sure she does.
That cake is sitting there and she wants to eat it, too.
