Do you care when your gf gets hit on?

Thread Starter 
Inspired by some back and forth with Javyn in the Why do you workout thread, curious if people care when they see their gf/wife/SO being hit on.

Personally, I just don't care. My last couple of gfs have both been pretty sought after, and left alone, the sharks will circle. I kind of can't control that, and just figure that letting them buy her drinks ultimately saves me money, and she's still coming home with me....soooo...don't care.

Anyhow, others?

hmmm...depends on the comment I guess there. If he said something grossly inappropriate and reached for some tit, that's one thing...if he came over and said 'hi I saw you standing there and wanted to get to know you while I had the chance' or whatever - basically respectful and unaware that she was married...then that is something very different.

I used to, when I was younger. way back, my girlfriend of the time told me that a friend of hers was going to visit, and that her last boyfriend used to get upset because he flirted with her a lot. I said something to the effect that that I wouldn't bother getting upset, I would simply bury him someplace that his famiy would never know for sure if he was dead or not. he canceled the trip, and they ended up getting married a few years later.

a guy hit on my wife once, during our honeymoon - we were in a museum in london, and my wife was telling me and a couple of our friends about some antiquities - her field. some guy started following us around and trying to get into the conversation. I had a very brief good natured talk with him and he buggered off. but I wasn't either upset or flattered as much as amused.


there are thress elements -

1. is it insulting to your wife?
2. is there an actual threat to your relationship?
3. does it emasculate you?

if the answer to all of these is no, then why get upset. if the answer to either 2 or 3 is yes, you should look at a lot of other things.

She's pretty good at handling it herself. So I don't really worry. When we go to bars she tends to attract some attention. The moment I walk away to grab drinks or something, guys usually run up and start talking to her. It is really funny at times.

If some dude got grabby, I guess I'd have to take care of the situation. But that hasn't happened yet.

Doesn't bother me. My gf usually just points to me and tells the dude that she came with me. She's good with not baiting the guy to buy her drinks or to lead him on. (I think that's pretty wrong.) I've never had to get physical over this, but then again most dudes would think twice about fucking with me because I look like Bruce Lee's twin.

The only time it bothers me is when its clear that we are together but some guy still feels like he needs to get a word in with either "let me get a piece" or "damn mami", usually some dumb disrespectful thing like that.

I've never had a serious confrontation. The can only recall someone buying her a drink twice when I was present but not attending to her (group situation), I wasn't threatened.

It's one thing to get a little upset but some people take it WAY too far, especially in the states I find. Not too long ago I had just arrived on a pretty long flight so I was a little tired and I saw this really attractive girl give me a smile, so I gave what I thought was a perfectly innocuous comment, and out of nowhere WHAM some bald guy headbutts me in the face! What the fuck!

Weird. I was on a business trip to London and had some free time so I went to a museum. I was just walking around enjoying the atmosphere, but this couple kept following me around. I was trying to mind my own business but they kept following me. So i decided to be nice to them and engaged them in the conversation when the guy got defensive and told me that he didn't appreciate me trying to hit on his wife. I was quite astounded at the guys accusations as I was just trying to not make them feel awkward as they were following me around, but he appeared to be a nice fellow, so i just walked off and got away from them as soon as possible when they looked the other way. I sure hope they had a good trip and that guy spent more time enjoying his wife and himself instead of thinking every guy there was trying to take his wife away from him.
