Not a chick you're picking up but a girl you're out with who's clearly your gf.
And I'm not talking about guys hitting on my girl (altho some of them may have that intention)
My girl is the spitting image of a
young Monica Bellucci and she gets a lot of attention from guys. She doesn't actively flirt or does anything to embarass me but she does respond pleasantly to people talking to her.
I've had it happen with charismatic waiters, cab drivers and most recently, my girl's previous male colleague.
They'll engage with my girl while giving me the minimum attention just enough so it's not rude. They're so under the radar and pleasant that it's hard to call them out without seeming too reactive.
Usually they're not doing anything serious like trying to pick her up but it still bothers the heck out of me.
I find myself in a situation where I'm left out while the guy makes smooth conversation with my girl, which she responds to politely.
Recently this cab driver engaged in a pretty animated convo with my girl for the whole ride.
I tried to insert myself in the convo and he acknowledged me while smoothly redirecting to my girl.
I can't really call my girl out on it cuz she's not actively flirting or anything.
She's being polite and probably enjoys a pleasant social interaction.
How do you guys handle that?
