When your frame is strong, and the attraction is strong enough, you can set all kinds of rules and boundaries.....and she will comply. She will comply because those are your rules, and she wants to be with you.
But then you've stepped into the following realm:

My other posts on this subject will answer all of your "you're beta" accusations pertaining to this^ statement.
She wants to be your girlfriend.
She still wants to hang out with other guys.
Which one is most important to her?
You.
So she ditches other guys.
In this scenario, she still wants to hang out with other guys. WANTS.
You could have a 51%-49% lead in the other guys to zekko ratio so she'll pick you. What happens down the line when the percentages flip only a few points?
See my first post in this thread.
Here are two other threads where we've been "discussing" this topic:

If your frame and attraction is strong enough you won't need to tell her to not to see other men. And you shouldn't.
"well they're programmed by society to believe they can do that, duh P&V."
Oh, so telling them not to do it, is going to re-program them?
"yeah, all you have to do is tell chicks something and their whole mind set will change, they need to know the boundaries or else they'll cross them."
I have a better idea, try withdrawing your ATTENTION when they do something that crosses a boundary, they'll learn, and they will not want to cross that boundary again. Also, see SgtSplacker's rendition of how his woman learned a lesson on pushing the boundaries of their relationship.
You can have the strongest frame there is, with all the attraction in the world. But the second you tell your woman this: "I don't go exclusive with women that hang out with other guys." You have shown an insecurity.
"but if you have a strong frame it won't matter!"
Yeah, for now, it won't. But that is a chink in the armor. <------truth.
Her mind: Why does he care who I see and don't see? Does he think I'll cheat on him? I wouldn't do that. Why is he beworried that I'll cheat on him?
^doubts start to creep in, as slowly as this may be.
"oh, you're afraid of coming across as insecure or unattractive."
No, I'm breaking down the dynamic. I'm not insecure, that is why I don't say those things. It has nothing to do with the perception. I am simply not insecure when I go into an LTR. If I was at all worried about her seeing other men then I wouldn't go into it. If I felt I had to tell her not to see other guys that I was threatened by, then for more reasons than one, I would not get into the LTR.
"well, chicks will cheat on you all the time, whenever they get the chance, you won't know!"
This is where you're wrong.
Also, I like what Shark has to say here:
But then you've stepped into the following realm:
(Oops, that was a previous mis-type. I fixed it, in bold.)Peaks&Valleys said:You can say setting boundaries is just a price, or something she needs to know, or being a man, but it's just a less extreme version of hiring a Private Investigator......same lines
This is an example of my reasoning:zekko said:No it isn't, and it isn't even remotely similar. I really don't get where you are coming from here.

As I've stated zekko, if she wants to hang out with other men when she has an opportunity to hang out with me, then something's not right in the relationship. I will guide, explain certain things, however I will not forbade them from hanging out with anyone.zekko said:Come out and say it, Peaks. You do not have any objection if your girl hangs out one on one with other men. If you want to say it is beta to have a problem with that, at least approach the argument from that point, instead of being vague about it.
My other posts on this subject will answer all of your "you're beta" accusations pertaining to this^ statement.
I got this through my head. You can word it anyway you want.zekko said:And again: I never told my girl she couldn't see other men. I told her I didn't have any interest in having a girlfriend who saw other men. I believe that's basically what Danger has been saying all along, too. It's a filtering process. There is a difference there. I don't know why you can't get that through your head.
She wants to be your girlfriend.

Well, there's been quite a few men arguing with this. Did you skip over all of the gazillion arguments? You seem to be a smart guy, but I feel you, and a few others, are being extremely close minded about this. If you really want to know how or why someone could argue with it I bet you could figure it out. You don't have to accept it, but, if you wanted to, I bet you could understand the other poster's POV.JoeMarron said:I don't understand how any man could argue with this.

Either you're full of $hit here, or you're telling the truth. Either way, our mind sets are on complete opposite spectrums, and I believe we have different ways of qualifying women that we bring into our lives. So your projections on my relationships are incorrect.Danger said:Bull$hit. I have fvked tons of taken girls who were goddamned class A actresses right in front of their boyfriends. They could have won Academy Awards. And these are not "rare" because I can think of almost ten right off the rip.
Also, I like what Shark has to say here:
Shark said:When a girl cheats for emotional reasons you don’t need a list of signs, it will be shamelessly obvious. Her attraction for someone else will manifest itself as full-blown emotional withdrawal following with increased nagging, lack of sex, and a harsh indifference. More importantly, she will make her attraction for another guy blatant, and her obligation to you will only harbor resentment.
