Deck him. Seriously, seeing as he shouldn't have YOUR phone in the first place.

No need for violence really. Why? Theres no struggle over this chick. She WANTS to be with you right? If thats true you've won, game over. Tell your "friend" to fuck off, this is not the behavior of a friend.

A PUA rarely needs to resort to physical dominance/conflict or intimidation. Why? Because a PUA is Alpha.

Its the idea that he took his phone and is trying to make him look bad.

I disagree.

I don't know if the phone was snatched out of his hand or if it was picked up of a desk while he wasn't there. Even if it was snatched would it have been right to attack a perceived friend right away?

Violence can solve A LOT of things, but it doesn't need to be used in this situation. If he goes and decks this guy he may as well deck every guy that looks at his girl in his presence.

Yes. Friends should know not to touch another friend's property without asking first. If that were me, I'd probably grab his arm, throw him to the ground, and punch him a few times. Then again my friends aren't like that so I dont have to worry about it.
