I was wondering what is the best way to combat this, i suppose there will be a different response depending on if you are with your girlfriend or just a target you are gaming.

Lets say you are with your girlfriend, and some friends, but one friend is trying to be flirty but discreetly and you see a bit of kino building, but in a friendly way, it is in his nature and he is like this with anyone. Or lets say in a situation you are in a club or in a gathering, and there is another male demonstrating higher value, what is the best course of action to take ?

Showing signs of being threatend and reacting badly, would give the outer male a higher value, so its a tricky situation, anyone had any past experience of this ?

why do you have to combat this?, just game the girl yourself and don't worry about other guys, ignore it

if she is your girlfriend why would she do anything?

if she is a target, why would another guy be hitting on her when you're there? (are you not leading?)

and if a guy is being overt with your girlfriend in front of you, just tool him, don't put him down, play him up like he is too amazing, while simultaniously doing shit to your girlfriend, giving her direction, lead the situation, and raise the guy up to a standard he can't reach

''wow, look at this smooth guy'' *puts arm around girl friend*

''you're putting the moves on my girlfriend like such a pimp'' *starts to kiss girlfriend*

etc. etc.

Its not a fear of what she might do, but its more of a question of principle, and being in control. I like the examples you gave, thats the sort of things i was after. I remember a mate from university once told me how he can deactivate a potential threat to his game/target, by using some simple words. I saw him do this, but didn't hear the words he said.

Thanks
