I purposefully look sexy around his friends and coworkers...

Whenever I know that his friends or coworkers will be anywhere near us, I purposefully dress up, do my hair and makeup and tweak my appearance specifically to look as sexy but not trying too hard as possible. I want him to get props for having a hot girlfriend and make his buddies jealous of him. Whenever they are around, I act as close to "perfect girlfriend" toward him as I possibly can so they'll be jealous of him.

Whenever I get the opportunity, I do my best to make great conversation with those guys and will regularly cut them off mid-sentence to love on him in front of them. I'll take every chance I get to say something about him to make him look good - I'm not gonna lie, sometimes I embellish or make shit up. I won't go out of my way to do any of this but when I get the chance, I sure as hell do. That said, I keep a distance from his guys who have girlfriends and just talk to their girlfriends instead.

I don't tell him this and he has never questioned it because I try to be subtle about it. Is it normal that I try to make his friends jealous of his girlfriend?

Is It Normal?

  • I've never been one to play a facade. I've seen couples play the "perfect couple" act before, but with some you can tell they're miserable when they're alone, no matter how subtle the act is. If your relationship is healthy then I guess there is no harm done, but if you're covering up for a shitty relationship then your bf might be the one you should really be trying to impress.

  • Honestly, although the thought would be appreciated, I wouldn't want to make my friends jealous of me. They're my friends and that's not what friends do.

    So I can't say that, as a guy, I'd like for a partner to do this to my friends, so you should ask to see if he minds it happening.

  • well the fact that you want him to look good shows you are a good girlfriemd but I would watch trying to play on others feelings people are not toys and you might find yourself in a situation you dont want

  • As a typically jealous guy, this makes me feel a lot better, because now i know that its all just a big show you are putting on. If you have to pretend to be a great girlfriend in public then you probably arent so great in reality when others arent looking.

  • It's cool that you're doing that but I think you can tone it down a bit cause making stuff up is just too much :/

  • This isn't ideal; it's just manipulating circumstances. I admit must that it's a pleasant surprise to see you trying to stroke your boyfriend's ego instead of trying to hit on his friends or make their girlfriend's jealous. Still I'm sure there are better ways than to manipulate and orchestrate.

  • It is good that you are trying to help your bf> My wife does the same thing but has taken it to another level with my bosses. She is at a minimum topless when my bosses stop by the house. They love the way she acts in front of them and how she treats them. It has helped me out at work big time.
