Just something for discussion:

Social media : almost everyone uses it...so how would you feel if your other half follows/comments/likes the opposite sex and they are half naked, slutty, provocative etc. pics

So many possible reactions...
Overall, he wouldn't be my other half for much longer if it was happening all the time- agree with Libralula on that point.

But then again, it depends on so many other things, the BF is in that kind of industry where a lot of his female friends and female social media contacts are models and actresses and they do look pretty smokin' hot a lot of the time...
so he is friends with some of them and professionally tied with some of them and it would make perfect sense for him to like some of their really awesome shots - bikini pics or what ever...
am I jealous? Maybe a little... does it make sense to be jealous? maybe a little... is that MY problem and not his?... definitely.

But if the guy - I assume- was a player, and used social media to amass his harem or dating pool, and was using it that way, or treating the girls on there like his personal cigarette card collection then yes, maybe it's an issue... in terms of expecting a personal relationship with him.

Look but do not touch or interact, and this also applies online therefore they should not like or comment. However -

If the SO chooses to replace our sex life with external sources when I am easily available and in sync with him then he is a bastard. If that were the case, then it would be neglect, and he could very well try to warm his bed with those pictures whilst I leave him high and dry.

Normally, by the time the above occurs there would have been various other issues which have been plaguing the connection and the relationship is but a lost cause.

It is a simple rule of respect, if a man believes in double standards and feels he could do as he pleases without boundaries regarding such circumstances then he could very well go, the door is that way and I would lock it behind him.

Everyone is gonna look, its just human nature. Its the touching and interaction that causes issues.
