Fortunately, my boyfriend is a secure, mature, emotionally stable adult who wouldn't go APESH*T on me for making eye contact with somebody.

Yea, well he is a doormat if you are flirting with guys in front of him.

OP:

You can beat up about 15 guys before you figure out you are in a relationship with someone who disrespects you. Get it settle from the outset. You sound young, your GF is no doubt young. Straighten her out. You are doing her a favor. when she grows up she will understand that respectable women do not crap on their male partners.

It's a compliment when guys hit on your woman but remember the song...

If you want to be happy all of ya life, never make a pretty woman your wife.

Maybe...if I WERE flirting with guys in front of him. Which I'm not doing, simply by virtue of having the gall not to avert my eyes if a guy not-my-boyfriend looks at me. For God's sake, wouldn't you be PROUD if a guy were looking at your girlfriend? You'd think it'd be an ego boost.

Being flirted WITH is not flirting. Neither is being talked to, being smiled at, or being looked at.

At what point did we learn that the OP's girlfriend was flirting? I missed it. As well as some sort of mention of what that flirting that she was doing WAS, exactly...

BS.
They sure can. I know all of us guys in this thread can see clear as day what the intentions of this character was and is. You have to dumber than a box of rocks not to. He's trying to get her number. That's just one thing. He is also trying to get her facebook or email behind his back (without him knowing) if I recall as well. A+B+C+D+E+F....... what's it spell? TROUBLE!

Totally...beat up 14 guys, and it's probably not your girlfriend who is the problem, no worries. But that 15th? She totally disrepects you, or 15 guys would NOT have talked to her. For real.

Seriously...where did she "crap on him," from anything he posted? Cut and paste, please. I missed this evidence, apparently.

If she gave the guy digits, for me, that would be it. And, I think she did. She's young and so maybe cut her some slack. But he needs to straighten her out.

I haven't read every single post on here, but it seems most people have missed a vital clue: that the brother and his friend don't know that the OP and the girl are in a relationship. Therefore, we can't blame the guy for hitting on the girl - as far as he's concerned she's fair game, and perhaps even was being encouraged to hit on her by the brother.

Without having been a fly on the wall during the evening, it is quite possible that the girl wasn't sure how to handle the situation - after all, she couldn't mention she was with the OP because the brother doesn't know about the relationship.

Now if the guy who's flirting with the girl continues to behave like that after he knows she's with the OP, then we can blame him. And if the girl doesn't rebuff someone flirting with her when she's free to say she's with the OP, then we can blame her.

This is a game they play. Of course they like to be hit on. And, a lot of guys just buy into the whole "I'm just lucky to have her" deal. Because, at that age they control guys with sex for the most part. Its understandable but not ok for a good relationship.
