Why don't some guys speak up when they have a girlfriend and someone is hitting on them?

Eh.. IMO I hate that loophole bs.. You can nonchalantly mention you have a girlfriend without making a big thing out of it and nip that in the bud. Letting someone carry on flirting with you when you’re in a relationship? It’s not cheating, but it is disrespectful to your partner regardless if they are present or not. Pfft.. they are either insecure, craving the attention or have avoidant coping mechanisms. Both are gross. Both = preventable drama.

He was flattered by the attention.

he needed the validation

My girlfriend/future wife had a signal that she gave me if a guy was bothering her. When I saw the signal, I rescued her. We never had a problem, even with drunks.

Because we're pretty much hardwired to long for variety and this goes double in dating , it's the spice of life as they say but that's even more so when it comes to dating.

I mean hell too as someone in a polyam relationship like I like getting excited about other women because usually when they disappoint me it just reminds me of how right I was in wanting to be with the one I am with.

it's funny "other women" are just pushing us closer together.

hey you might not like my answer either but at least you know from it I value honesty.

He wanted sone strange

Scared? Intimidated?

Why should he tell her anything? She was merely flirting, not wrapping a chain about his waist and trying to run off with him.

the question sounds like she was hitting on him. who was hitting on who here?
