I remember when I ran into a friend of my gf in the past that flirted with me. I didn't think of anything but just her personality but now I think about it. Perhaps I should've taken the bait because her friend was probably more of my type than my gf at the time.
After you become more experienced and age you realize that when we're younger we don't really date people that are much better suited for each other and that people who are more compatible usually meet in the most unthinkable ways.
So take it in the chin for now, if your bf is truly in love with you then this is nothing and he won't fall for it. If you really weren't his type then let this be a signal that eventually he'll cheat or break up with you.

There's really nothing for you to do, it's on your man to withdraw from her when she flirts. Or, if he's a "no f's given" type of guy, he could tell her to keep steppin' because you two are obviously together.
Question: Is your guy making it absolutely clear that he is with you? If not, she may not really know.

He doesn't make it clear when it happens, no. He's kind of passive and non-confrontational. But I know that she's well aware because she's referred to us as a "couple" and it's common knowledge among the people we hang out with and who know us. And the way she comes at him is over the top. She's excessively smiley and attentive while barely acknowledging me. It's very obvious and very disrespectful.

She deliberately crosses that line because he does nothing to stop her from doing so. We're all responsible for the choices we make, and when he chooses to do nothing in this scenario, he's "telling" her it's fine to disrespect you. Not cool at all.
He could be charming or pleasant and still put an end to her excessive flirting. Nobody has to lose face here. If it bothers you that she does this intentionally, he should care enough about your feelings, to make it known that her actions aren't welcome. A few direct words spoken discreetly and it ends. But it's up to him to have that conversation with her.....
Have you even discussed this with him? Does he know that you are feeling threatened by her behavior?
What does he think about her behavior? I find it odd that he does not make it clear that you're a couple when she's in the midst of engaging in over the top flirting with him.
It IS your Friend, put her in her place, now!
Your BF might not confront it because it IS your friend.
And a friend should not be playing these games with your love interest, nor should a friend be making you uncomfortable. Make her uncomfortable.
Forget about appearing jealous, so what? She again is putting you in this situation. Just stop socializing with her. Matter of fact, do not bring these type of people around your dates.
Respect is important, and if you do not want to respect me, I do not need you around me.
