Someone does not to know the character it seems...EntropicAngel wrote...

"I romanced Isabela without really getting to know her as a person, and was upset when she 'surprised' me with a totally in-character action?"
I'm not inclined to think sleeping around when you love someone is in-character for Isabella. There's no proof of this outside of the instance in-game.

I always thought of it as "Isabela isn't sexually monogamous, but she can be emotionally monogamous. For her, they are two completely separate things."
Thus, if someone she cares for and respects asks her to remain faithful, she'll do it as a courtesy out of respect to that person. But only as a courtesy, and not as something she cares about herself. She wouldn't be upset with Hawke for a visit to the Rose, but she would if Hawke was emotionally involved with someone else.
But that should tell you who you're dealing with. Plus in act 2 at the docks there would be an npc who would claim he contracted some sickness from Isabela, before she interrupts.Pseudocognition wrote...

I forget which act (1 or 2), but When visiting Ander's clinic Isabela implies she has an STD/STV and Anders scolds her for abusing his services.
Maybe she got it from Hawke.ohsnap
But seriously she's not in a ~relayshunship~ with Hawke by then.

The problem I have with it is that she never asks.
She never bothers to ask what hawke thinks about her hooking up with an old friend.
It's not the sex as much as the lack of...thinking about someone else's feelings. There's a word for that I'm having trouble finding.

You can ask her not to go and she won't, or just join her. You should have knowen what you where getting your self into by romancing her.

Self-centered? Yeah, that's totally out-of-character for Isabela [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/uncertain.png[/smilie]

If you are Rivalmancing Isabela, I can see some
justification for complaint. Since that adds an entire layer of "you
need to change your ways" to the romance and that could be considered
something of a mis-step in that context. But even then, given the game
gives you yet another opportunity to tell her she's wrong about
something... it hardly seems complaint worthy.
If you are
Friendmancing Isabela, you have no room to complain because as far as
she's concerned you're down with her views and behavior, and by the time
that scene rolls around have been for years.

It's more of an urban legend than anything in specific. The actual line in question is:
"I know your face. The boys in Orlais named an itch after you."
There are a few others, but nothing ever concrete. It's all innuendo.
"Did you... board us once? Woman, you left us drifting!"
"Could have sworn I knew a girl like you out of Rivain."
"There's a scourge on the waves, sometimes scarlet, sometimes satin. Know her at your peril."
