Why tell her she shouldn't have one? You live your life, she lives her life. You choose not to have one, she chooses to have one. And let's not kid ourselves here; facebook doesn't create relationship problems. People create relationship problems. Social media however will really exploit insecurity if it's present though; so yea I guess it can create problems because it will shine a light on the ones that are already there, and it sounds like you're insecure about something (which I'm not judging, btw; I have my own). Might wanna take a look inside and see what's causing that. Your 'other' using forms of communication to stay in touch with people, really shouldn't be an anxiety raiser. If it does; either you think she's sketchy, or there's something you should address within.

This is full of fail. As I said before, all of this is attention-seeking behavior. Why doesn't she have enough self-esteem to make a smart, rational decision on her own? If she got onto FB for bad reasons, then she should have no problem walking away.

She's asking you to take charge, but on her terms. That's f@#ked up. Grow a pair, remind her you don't have a FB page, and that's that.
Im making her delete it, i just feel bad because her sister lives in texas and thats the only way that she can see all the b.s that she posts and talk to her. but am still making her delete it. being an asshole never turned out bad for me.

I'm not one of those super spiratual people and "looking within", but after being given the same exact advice from from the same person over some fantastic beers at a beer joint a while back and it's advice worth listening to. Figure your shit out before your ready to take on someone else's baggage.

That's not being an asshole for the sake of getting some. That's just being selfish and full of insecurity.

Yea when I say look within, I don't mean in a spiritual way (unless you want to). I accidentally got more than I bargained for when I tried to fix my issues. Figure this, every issue has:

An effect: Usually the problem (i.e. insecurity -> anger, frustration, withdrawal, temper, blah blah)
A cause: What triggered the effect (generally an external factor that triggers the internal switch)
The root: What's there that allows the cause, to exploit the better of you.

It's like weeding n shit

I would go on her facebook and make a status update, "I like it when my bf PIIMB." And then you can monitor which of her girlfriends does a "like" and then if your relationship doesn't workout, you know where to go next
All of her friends like it, some just don't know it yet.
lol i wish i could piitb, my gf gets all sensitive when i even go near there bummer. but that would be a good status update im sure it would get alot of what is PIIMB ? dumb bitche$... >.>

Are you serious? It's been 2 whole months... who gives a damn? Dude, if a person is gonna do something, cheat, pursue other people through the internet, or whatever, you can't stop them. People are gonna do what they are gonna do, and there is nothing you can do about it, password or no password. People stop, or change when they are ready to, not when you add pressure or get a password. Man do YOUR thing. Drive the S, hit the bootie as much as possible, and hold on to things loosely. Let the chips fall where they may. There is always another piece around the corner...
