My girlfriend ALWAYS brags to me about guys hitting on her. In shopping centres, at clubs, or at bars.
So, what's the best response? I know, to appear unaffected and to not give a shit. But what about taking it a step further and getting girls to flirt with me? The only issue is that I have a much smaller social circle, and I've tended to ignore girls hitting on me (the very few that have) as I prefer loyalty over anything that can be misinterpreted as unfaithful. So, would it be wrong for me to start sarging but only with the intent of friendzoning girls so that I can say "hey check out this girl who added me on Facebook, she was totally all over me today"?
Your girlfriend seems to have insecurity issues, and a desperate need for attention. She WANTS a reaction from you, but not just any reaction. She wants a reaction that shows you're insecure. Don't feed the troll.
By completely ignoring what she says, it could potentially be interpreted as you being bothered by it but pretending to not care with your head in the sand. It's also an abnormal reaction and she'll just keep doing more and more outrageous shit and enjoy seeing you bite your tongue.
DEFINITELY don't do the Facebook trick you mentioned. That will basically let her know that she won and you're worried. I could suggest that you do what I've done in the past, but it may seem out of character for you and backfire. A girl I dated (not the last one you saw me mention, but before) used to tell me about guys that hit on her (I know the guys around her. They are absolute nobodies, like someone mentioned on a nearby thread, if she wanted to cheat on me with one of them, I'd drive her over there with all her stuff and laugh all the way back). My response was always condescending and generally douchy. eg: "daww that's adorable" and "shoulda picked him.. I don't think I'll ever measure up". Are you normally cocky with her? If not, you should slowly become that way. Don't even deny it. I straight up told my gf that I'm a cocky asshole... She denied it and said I'm very modest and sweet...(I'm not). Honestly, just give less fucks about her, the other guys, and having to be with someone in general, and you're 80% of the way there.
If you want to make her worried and jealous, be subtle. VERY subtle. She'll pick up on it from your subconscious actions/words. Go, flirt with some HBs, see them as just friends, LITERALLY, and make sure it doesn't look like you're just parading them around in front of your GF to make her jealous. Mention them as just friends, never mention their looks in a way that makes you seem interested (I'm PMing you a couple strategies off the record). Hell, see if you can get another HB interested in you. Don't cheat, but the knowledge of having attractive options alone, will give you the confidence, and the lack of fucks given to deal with your attention seeking problem girl.
Just know, that unless you just started dating, the behavior you're seeing is a red flag, and you should think twice before getting more involved with her.
Good luck my friend.
