Under 'Preferences' do You have the option to 'Encrypt to My Key' checked?

This is a 'Feature' that many find desirable so that they can go back
and check a Sent Message to see what they actually 'said'.  You may
un-check this box and Sent messages will no longer be able to be
decrypted by You.  :)
