I don't think the thread has gotten too out of control. I will need to make a separate warning post to shenanigans here.

This situation is tricky, to be sure. I will, as always assume that everything you posted is true, as I have no reason to believe otherwise.

You got an excellent reply by "qtns", and my reply will certainly echo that post.

This needs to be kept under control before you let it go to far. It's too easy to just sit back and let her do whatever she wants to do, under the guise of "I'm not making her do anything, it's her choice."

It is her choice, but like it or not children need and even want boundaries. It is our responsibility as GL's to do two things: Never impose our needs, wants or desires unto the girl and to not let her do anything that could be dangerous for her.

In this case, letting her continue to flash you is going to end up badly. Sooner or later someone is going to catch her doing it and not only will she get in trouble, but it may end your relationship with her.

The only responsible thing to do in this case is tell her when she does it that you don't want her to get in trouble, and that others may get the wrong idea and that she can't do that anymore. If she persists despite the warning, then you cannot allow her into your room anymore. At least not without another adult present (perhaps your girlfriend?).

This behavior is something that is very common and normal for children to engage in with someone they like and feel comfortable with. Who else can she push limits with? But deep down she knows and trusts you enough to test your (and her) limits without you taking advantage of her. It is our duty as GL's to never take advantage of our little friends when they push limits and boundaries. We just need to remind them that they could get in trouble and that we don't want them to be hurt. Anything else is just irresponsible.

I know you don't want it to stop, of course you don't. You're a human male attracted to this little girl, and in love with her. So of course you enjoy when she shows you her body. But, it cannot go anywhere. You cannot have a legal sexual or romantic relationship with her. By allowing her to continue showing her body in this manner, you are sending her the wrong message. You need to set the record straight and tell her you just don't want her to get in trouble, and that people will not like it. Tell her it's also likely if she gets caught that she probably would not be allowed to see you anymore.

If she loves you and respects you, she will not want to risk losing you as part of her life yet (this will simply happen naturally as she gets older and finds a boy her age to date).

I'll also put my mod-hat back on and say something else. If someone makes a rather questionable reply accusing you of something, you do not have to reply at all. As we always say "Don't feed the trolls". You don't need to waste time replying to something you felt was a waste of time.

I will wish you good luck with this situation. It's a difficult one to be in, but you need to always remember that it's your job to be the responsible one and not let things get out of hand. As much as you love her, you simply cannot allow her to do anything she wants.
