    Your problem isn't with her.

    If you have a boyfriend who falls for any woman who flaunts herself to get his attention, then you have a problem with your boyfriend.

    While you may be able to avoid her by not going to family gatherings, there are plenty of women just like her that you cannot avoid. Such as co-workers, strangers in bars, company Christmas parties, etc.

    You either trust him or you don't. Perhaps your niece IS a good test for him. If he falls for her, you have lost nothing.

    Just to clarify, being friendly, and engaging at a family get togethers' is a long way from falling for someone. And even if he gave her attention while you were right there, that's still not falling for someone.

    Seems to me you would have given him a heads up about her, and laid out your expectations beforehand, and I'm not seeing a 12 year old turning heads, and making a grown man "fall" for her.

    Help me understand this "fall" for her thing.
