We never really talked about us, just had a great time, and after a bit we would go our seperate ways. But we always kept in touch. About 6 months ago we reconnected. I'm 24 now and he's 29. I have had a lot happen in the past year, and grown up in so many ways. I was engaged and it didn't work out, but now I know exactly what I want. So we go out and have an amazing time. 2-3 times a week we meet up and have the most amazing dates. He is everything I have always wanted, smart, funny, successful, sweet and I think honest. He has brought up our relationship a couple times and always told me he would tell me the truth. Tonight he tells me that since he started his own business the only thing holding him back is his lack of time. He says I deserve more than he can give me. We had dinner and drinks and such an amazing time as always. We are planning trips together and everything seems perfect. He has told me he's not dating anybody else and how much he likes me. And then I get home and see that this girl keeps posting on his Facebook page. And her profile picture is of the two of them hiking, which is our thing. And it's recent. I'm not usually a jealous person, but this really bothers me. I actually really care for this guy, but I need to know what's going on. What should I do??

It's NOT normal for someone to have a Facebook picture of them hiking with another person, though there may be a perfectly innocent explanation (what if she's his married sister, for instance? Or an ex with whom he's still friends?) You need to hear that explanation, and judge for yourself!
Don't raise it like a jealous person - just say 'Hey, who is that girl on your Facebook page?' like you're curious. You'll likely get a straight answer that will set your mind at rest.

In my humble opinion Facebook and Twitter are dumb time bandits.
