Some folks are always looking for ways to break up a relationship. I agree it is okay to look at one’s page but you shouldn’t go jumping to conclusions from that.

I am on FB and after seeing how relationships can blow up as a result of insecurity first hand, and as a result I elected to no longer post my relationship status at all unless I was about to be engaged or get married. Until then, that is strictly between myself and my significant other. Those who are closes to me and truly friends already know. It's a personal choice and to be honest, posting your relationship status doesn't really do much except put more of your business out there because if or when your relationship ends, it suddenly becomes knowledge for everyone on your respective friend's list. I also don't deal with those who would try to say that by not posting your relationship status you are hiding something. This isn't necessarily true. I am just a private person and find that involving potentially hundreds of other people in the relationship makes for the potential of increased drama... especially if the significant other in question is a tad insecure like my ex was. I mean questioning me about pics of me dancing or posing with female friends who I've known since college and live 3000 miles away with either kids or their own relationships with men that are also friends? As Larry said earlier... "Not a good look" Facebook itself isn’t the cause of relationships going down the tubes, but often times it doesn’t help.

It's like the old adage: be careful what you look for because you just might find it. A girl has no right to go through a guy's phone and then question him on what he finds. The same applies to facebook. While she can search his facebook page she shouldn't jump to reckless conclusions. Be glad you have a man and appreciate him. Give hime a back rub, wash him, and cater to your man. Treat him like a king and don't worry about what Mercedes is doing on his FB page. Mercedes ain't in that bedroom with you girl. So stop tripping and start strippin--just playing. But seriously FB stalking is all good but leave it at that. Trust guys don't like to be interrogated. Not a good look.
