What to do when another guy plunges into your set?

So I hate it when I'm talking to a girl, whether it be in a networking event (today) or cold approach nighttime streetgame (months ago), and either an acquaintance of that girl or another socially awkward guy plunges into our conversation and the girl can't simply ignore the guy... I just do the "bored look" and not engage the guy, but these people don't get the signal. Sometimes they try to steal the girl away from me, by asking her number, even if I was currently PUTTING HER NUMBER in my phone. And the girls simply talk and answer these guys' boring questions until the conversation turns to shit and the girls want to leave, and at that point it's very hard for me to recover and not be chasing her again as she often feels too uncomfortable from the situation to re-engage me herself.

It's crazy what type of questions girls are willing to engage with actually, and not throw guys under the bus. When I'm doing nighttime streetgame random drunk guys come up to ask her for cigarettes or walk between us or do stupid shit to get her attention or fuck my set up, with some new found courage seeing that I'm talking to her.

What do I do in situations like these? I can't think of any effortless and non-chasing behavior other than bored look, or perhaps telling the girl, "hey X, I'll be sitting over there, come find me when you're done" with a smile. But I can't do that line if I've just opened a girl and not having enough investment from her.

Should I get ripped or something, lol, I'm starting to wonder whether I look like an easy target since I can approach beautiful women and guys think they can pick them off of me.

Alchemist,

I had been in both sides, and generally the outcome depended on what she wanted.
So if the guy is obviously socially awkward and she continue talking to him, she wants you to handle this situation. Many girls don't want to reject guys when they're with a guy friend. Or a guy whose status is not clear. She don't want you to think she's cold heart or a bitch or what have you.

She wants you to handle this situation.

Tell her to come somewhere. If she wants you, she will follow. If she doesn't, problem is the girl isn't that into you.
