So, I feel like the girls whom I have been friends with have been flirting with me ever since they found out about my new girlfriend. Some of the girls weren't good friends with me, but I have tried to go for them a while back, but ever since they found out about my fresh relationship, I feel like they started flirting with me. I don't want anything to do with them, but is that what some girls do to guys who are in a relationship?

I'm 21, and I've been single for a while and I've hit on girls here and there, but I've never gotten girls flirting at this magnitude.... I mean WHAT THA FUCK?

Is it because I stopped flirting with them?

But is it normal?

    Girls like attention.. when you are single they get plenty....when you aren't single the attention they are used to isn't there....therfore, they try whatever they can to get it....

    Do not mistake this for real attraction, because if they wanted you they would have pursued it before... Women just get this competive need to "prove they can" have you, if they wanted... It is the same as how guys will act macho and fight over nothing... just to prove they are "alpha" or superior.

    It is an ego boost... and most enjoy a good competive challenge/game.

      Thank you, I understand now. I honestly didn't know if the those girls weren't wishing me a happy relationship, or what. But, at least I know they don't have bad intentions!!

    It's normal. Actually statistics show that girls flirt with guys that have wedding rings more often than single guys. My understanding on the matter is that being in a relationship increases ones desirability because some other individual sees you as bf/gf material. It's like how when you see a guy talking to a lot of people, others will gravitate towards him because they see him as desirable and interesting. Although, these women could just be flirting with you because they want what they can't have and that's normal. Either ways, don't break up with your girlfriend over those other girls.

      Oh hell no. Of course I won't breakup with my girlfriend over them. I like my girlfriend a lot!

      The reason I asked the question is because their attitudes were noticeable. I wasn't sure if they had bad intentions towards my fresh relationship or not. That's why I asked. Now I know it's subconscious behavior and of course I won't hold that against them at any time.

    I would say these girl-friends crave for attention and competition. Girls see themselves more attractive and desirable whenever they can catch an attention from a man with not-available status.

      Actually, I thought your explanation was very well explained and interesting due to having people's input on the OP's situation. I base most of my sociological knowledge on my observations.

    Lol, it's because you got a gf. Girls correct me if I'm wrong, but I've had some girls tell me this is because: They feel safe and comfortable around you, you are more confident and in some cases (not all I might stress) that some girls are interested in what makes you bf material and even in more rare cases, some girls just want what they can't have and that if you have a gf, you must not be that bad a guy. But hey, this is what girls have told me in the past and opinions vary :)
