Thirsty flatmate

[1mag1ne]

What would you guys do if your flatmate was hitting on your girlfriend?
I know that staying cool is most important and to be fair in this situation I'm not as much worried about losing the girl but more so about tensions with a flatmate cuz nothing's worse than being stuck living with someone you don't get along with. He's cool otherwise, just the talkative fuckboy type. Say gf and I are cooking in the kitchen, he comes in and starts chatting with her and just won't shut up and leave.
Is there any way to deal with these kinda situations without coming off as insecure but also remaining on good terms with your flatmate?

For now, what I thought is to tell him that I like keeping my social circle/friends and the girls I'm seeing separate - in the hopes he'd accept and respect that. This is actually true since I don't want to put my friends in the position of picking side if I had an argument with gf for example (or vice versa).

Are you sure that he isnt just friendly? What have he done that you consider hitting on your girlfriend?

What I would personally do is tell him in private that he’s being disrespectful hitting on your gf. You’d appreciate it if he cooled off with that. Don’t be insulting or attack his manhood. Just emphasize that it’s disrespectful, not cool and you don’t want things to escalate. Don’t let any reframing as “it’s no big deal” or “I’m not flirting” or “just chill out bro” to get by you - all of this just means he’s unaware or unwilling to accept that he’s being disrespectful. For further emphasis, ask him how he’d feel if you hit on his girl all the time. It wouldn’t be cool would it.

If he takes advantage of this in order to embarrass you in front of your gf, like says something snide like “your bfs worried I’m flirting with you.” Or if he keeps doing it...

Then randomly bust in his room and beat his ass.

Another pro tip is to ask your father and male relatives what they’d do.

Beating a friends ass won’t necessarily mean your relationship is ruined
