I have made efforts to think that way. It's hard for me because in the back of my mind I'm thinking that she's doing it for the attention and not for me. But I get that it's perfectly normal for women to want to look pretty and sexy when they go out. So I know it's my little hangup that I have to work on.

That means that if only one male on the prowl takes all of the "hints"/ pics, and sweet talks her to death, she's as good as his/gone/seduced/done.

When I'm working out and my body is in good shape I like to wear clothes that show it off a little. I would never post pics on FB because I find that to be really vain. But I enjoy when women notice me. That does not mean that the first one that showed an interest I would be "hers/gone/seduced/done".

You sound like a "glass is half empty" kind of a guy. Do you always assume the worst possible outcome for everything?

Not at all.

Unfortunately, I have witnessed this scenario time and time again.

Don't get me wrong I have too. But not every situation is the same.

It would be wrong to ignore the fact she could wander as a possibility.

I think the fact that I've talked to her about the pics and the attention she seems to seek is proof that I'm not ignoring it. I'm confident at this point it's not about wanting to wander, but more about wanting to hear/see positive comments about her looking good. It's a huge stretch to say that the next thing she'll want is sex.

It's not a stretch when her actions have been a problem in the past for you. She seems to find new outlets once you voice your disapproval of her actions. It seems like she will always find a way to receive attention from men. The progression and finding other routes is what is worrisome.

Just keep your eye on her.

True.

I would ask for her Facebook password as the true test and trust. If she gives it without a flinch, then you're probably a-okay. If she starts with the, "You don't trust me" bit, you should be really worried. Of course, she could delete all messages before and after. There will always be a mess up, or forget to do it, in the future. It could also keep any temptation away. Another alternative is adding your combined names and pics to the account. That should keep the dirt bags away!

Example: Mr. & Mrs. Scooter <<< followed by her first name & your first name

If the OP doesn't feel his lady will wander, why even care if she posts pics? Something doesn't sit right with him. Maybe he should listen to that little voice and not consider it "assuming the worst".
