6 Obvious Signs Your Friend Is Into Your Girlfriend

There’s not a man on God’s green earth that would complain about having an attractive girlfriend hanging off his arm, but there are certain drawbacks also. Firstly, and as much as some may try to deny it, you tend to be very aware of her looks, more than might otherwise be the case, and consequently, you end up having to put in a bit more time and effort to keep her happy.

Also, and more worryingly, is the unwanted male attention she’ll attract unwanted from your perspective at least! It’s inevitable that a good looking woman will attract looks from men and women everywhere she goes, if not a little light flirting. But what if the person with your significant other in their sights is actually one of your friends?

# I can feel your presence

Is your friend one of those who you have that kind of healthy relationship with, where you might not see them for six months at a time, and yet you can seamlessly pick up from where you left off? Then they meet your girlfriend and all of a sudden are ringing you every other day, inviting themselves round to your place or on already planned nights out? Does he always ask if you’re going out on your own or whether there will be anyone else there?

These are all surefire indications that he has the scent of your woman in his nostrils, and is relentlessly pursuing her. He may not have admitted it to himself at this stage, but he will, and it will lead to trouble. Try not to encourage his behavior, and keep him to a routine that he was previously comfortable with – no matter how close you are.

# It’s no joke

Your friend’s one of the lads and like a bit of a laugh, but he holds onto his laughter like a cheating husband holds on to his nether regions. He’s kind of cool and collected and exposes his humor through little more than the odd sardonic smile.

Then he meets your girlfriend, and starts belly laughing over every silly and inconsequential thing she comes out with for no apparent reason. No, he hasn’t suddenly turned into the moron he is acting like. He has actually and very suddenly become infatuated with your girlfriend. In a desperate attempt to show her how nice he is, how approachable and friendly he is, he has thrown his cool scruples to the wind. Best keep your eye on him.

# Whose side?

You go out for a drink or meal or something similar, and whether orchestrated that way or not, your girlfriend and friend bump into each other, and the chat starts flowing. Do you find that your friend is starting to be all obsequious with her, hanging on her every word?

And more importantly, do you notice that he starts agreeing with everything she says, and yet disagreeing with you. If he is so swift to take the side of someone he barely knows against someone who could have been a friend for years, then you can bet your bottom dollar that his little brain is firmly in control!

# Smooth operator

Your friend is a real masculine type. He dresses pretty for every occasion in casual gear or day wear. In fact, his idea of formal dress consists of black sports shoes, instead of white and a t-shirt without a logo on it!

So, when he suddenly turns up unannounced, looking like he’s auditioning for the part of James Bond, then something is definitely amiss. Is it that he’s had something of an epiphany, a moment of self-realization? Nope. He’s after your girl. Simple.

# Ditch the itch

Your friend is a happily attached man. He’s one of those that you always have to drag away from his other half and seems content to spend the rest of his life in her company and no one else’s. Then one day he meets your girlfriend, and the next time he sees you tells you he’s single.

He’s split up from the woman of his dreams, and furthermore, can’t seem to provide even a half decent answer as to why. No doubt about it. He’s fallen for your girl, and he’s made himself available for any future moves to be made on her.

# The gentle touch

This man, the one who is famous for his burp and fart jokes and is more likely to turn his back on a girl than turn on the charm, suddenly turns into Mr. Sensitive. You and your friends watch in shock and horror, as he turns himself into a smooth-talking Lothario. Definitely one to keep an eye on!
