What you should do when you suspect another guy likes your girlfriend
These are the things that you can do when you feel that a man likes your girl:
- 1Some guys are just friendly. Do not misinterpret actions and do not go on a rampage. You do not want to have an unnecessary altercation with a person who does not actually like your girl at all. Also, even if a guy likes your woman, as long as he is not making any advance to take her attention from you, it is not a big issue at all. It is normal for a person to like others; what is not good is when they do actions that may hurt other people.Keep calm.
- 2If your girlfriend has received a bar of chocolate from a guy, do not directly assume that he likes your girl. He may have given everyone in the workplace the same chocolates. Maybe it is his way of thanking his workmates for a job well done, or he may have gone on a trip and brought everyone some treats.Do not overreact.
- 3Tell her of your suspicions. This way you can agree on some things, set limits, and have a healthy relationship. Do not keep all of these things to yourself. Your girlfriend is one of the concerns here, so she should know about these things too.Talk to your girlfriend.
- 4This is the last resort. If the guy gets too pushy or aggressive about showing his feelings to your girlfriend, tell him to stop. Some guys are just sweet to girls without any other intentions. Telling him that you do not like all of his extra sweetness may tone him down.Talk to the guy.
What you should NOT do when you suspect another guy likes your girlfriend
The following actions should not be taken when you suspect that another man likes your girl:
- 1Do not fight with the guy. Do not confront him angrily. That will make you appear obsessive and paranoid. Your being too hard on every guy is a big turn off for your girlfriend.Do not do irrational things.
A person liking your girlfriend is not unusual, especially if you have an attractive girlfriend with a great attitude. Your objective is to protect your relationship, not ruin it. Always think that everything in excess is not good. Someone showing excessive acts of appreciation to your girlfriend is not good; and you being too overprotective and obsessive is not good either. Just maintain your confidence in your woman and trust that no matter how many guys try to lure her, she will stay faithful to you. It would be another story, of course, if you suspect that your girl likes another guy. You can check on this article to know the signs that Detect if your girlfriend likes another guy.
Questions and Answers
Is it okay for another guy to post your girlfriend's pictures on Facebook?
He posts so may pictures of her that you would think that he was her boyfriend.. I have tried: Nothing because I don't want to seem possessive or jealous.. I think it was caused by: I caught her looking at pictures of herself on HIS Facebook profile.
Yes, it is all right for some men to do that unless you specifically demand that he do not do that or unless he is stealing someone else's copyrighted photography. There are a lot of photographers, artists, and creative people who see a lot of people aesthetically appealing without any other context. There are also people who value friendships, and if someone has pictures of another person, then that does not mean that they had a romantic relationship. A good way to see that is find out whether he has a habit of collecting pictures of you, his other friends, or acquaintances. Additionally, nothing is impossible; and there is always a chance that he is reconsidering his current relationship (the person in the pictures is absolutely not necessarily involved in that).
I don't know how to handle it, can you help?
This guy is always talking to her and my girlfriend is the helpful type but he is in my opinion using that too much by laying all his problems on her and she is always upset and talks about him all the time and he makes me super angry. What should I do and if you need more details just ask. I have tried: Talking to her about it in great detail and she tells me it's fine but its not because she is always upset and it is making my relationship harder. I've also tired talking to some of her friends and they don't like the guy at all. I think it was caused by: She is such a nice and caring person, she said she would help him out with any problems he has so he told her every problem he has
Her friends also do not like this guy and that is a big red flag. Gather her friends and stage a "you are too nice" intervention. Have the friends make a list on what they do not like about this person and then you all need to address her with these issues. This will put her on the defensive but she needs to realize that she has a toxic relationship with this guy and it is not just effecting your relationship but her friends as well. Girls can get trapped in a toxic friendship because it is in their nature to fix people. It is not her obligation to fix this man as much as she has.
How to reduce the guilty in me?
Yesterday I saw a male friend to my girlfriend putting her picture in his profile picture, I immediately told my girlfriend to ask him to remove it, later in the evening my girlfriend claimed that I never had to ask her because she had no issue bearing in mind they are just friends and he knows her stand? Now I felt guilty about telling her to do that, please kindly help. I have tried: I have done nothing towards it. I think it was caused by: My immediate response to it
Jealousy is a normal reaction. We all have done something in a quick moment of jealousy that we regret later. Explain to her that you love her like she is the only girl in the world and your immediate reaction was to protect the rare thing that you have with her. She will understand that you were not intending to make such a big deal out of the picture.
I really love her but I am not sure if all the dramas are worth it?
I'm in a relationship with my girlfriend since 2 years. For about 6 months we were together (living in the same place) but after that we are in long distance relationship. She is the perfect kind of girl that I have dreamed of and I feel very lucky to have her. We both are in our early 20's and are very career oriented which has been working great for us. We keep our relationship very low-key and do not discuss personal matter much with neither casual nor professional friends. This has affected our relationship to some extent as guys constantly hit on her. There are couple of guys who often go overboard by sending her flowers anonymously, randomly texting her. At times it makes me feel like she doesn't want to keep them away. but when I see her reply to such texts and responses it makes me clear that it's not her fault. She is very loyal and has better things to worry about than those guys. It's the guys that I have problem with. These guys even have the gut to shed some untrue rumors about my girlfriend with the purpose of breaking us. She doesn't want me to interfere in her social issues which at times gets on my nerves. She's the youngest and the prettiest professional in her company. She works very hard and already bagged 2 promotions within 6 months of her work. She is such a charmer that there is no doubt that anyone could fall for her. Changing social circles does not seem to favor her career. I am really stuck in here and not sure if I will be able to tolerate this for my entire life.
Take some advice from Beyonce, if you liked it then you better put a ring on it. This does not mean that you have to get married tomorrow but you should make a grand gesture of commitment and ask her to marry you. Guys are always going to be sniffing around her and you will have to trust that she only has eyes for you. At least if you make a stronger commitment to her then you will know that she is yours. That is all that matters. Now a ring may not keep these guys away but it will remind her of what she has with you and that is a promise of a future.
I am in a 5 year relationship with my girlfriend, I found out she has an Instagram account, no problem so far, but all I see is really nice pics of herself including in bathing suit. When I asked about it, she said she would close the account. Now I found out it is a "private" account, you see this relationship implode?
DO YOU SEE THIS RELATIONSHIP IMPLODE? Am I paranoid? My situation is different because she is not an "ex'. I have tried: I tried to ask for an explanation why she is showing herself suddenly to the world..this can mean she is looking ...fishing. I think it was caused by: Maybe our relationship is very unstable? I support her financially so I think now she is afraid to loose that support however she is acting like a single person would
