Most of the time, your GF's "male friends" are guys that tried or wanted to have sex with her but failed

of course they are attracted to each other

that said... as has been pointed out already, she's more attracted to you

so i think you are asking yourself the wrong question

attraction is common, and this attraction in particular is going to be there no matter what you say or do about it

so you have to ask yourself, "do i trust her?" and "do i like her enough to put up with this, b/c it's not going away?"

if both questions are yes you need to man up and deal, which includes being nice and civil about it. (of course, never be naive or stop paying attention)

one day it might be you with an attractive friend, and hopefully your maturity will be repaid in kind

if the first question is no, then you need to break up or address the trust issue. if the second questions is no, then you should walk

I disagree. Just because they get on doesn't mean they are automattically attracted
Connection and attraction are two totally different things.

I have many friends, male and female, with which I have a connection, but absolutely zero attraction.

#8 convinced me

something tells me G is not an ugly duckling

perhaps i was a bit overbearing with "of course"

however, i'd certainly lay wagers here

If you are friends with G, why not talk about this with him too?
An a personal note, one time me and my best pal were both interested in the same exchange student. I ended up taking her out twice and he didn't mind.
