I originally thought dealing with a 'player' mate was great! I mean you could meet loads of girls and eventually get the leftovers. However, that was the start but since I've got into pickup I've developed leaps and bounds. I can consistently get numbers and dates and have had same night lays. This is in the space of around 8 months.

Now this is the part where It gets sticky. Me and my friend (let's just call him Sam) used to go out and basically go to a lot of parties. Whenever we went he would always be the one getting the girls and the first pick and I would always compliment him and eventually when he's done with the girl get the leftovers. Now it's changed up ... and the girls frequently pick me. Not that my looks have changed but I've become more skilled. I make girls laugh, move them, build sexual tension and persuade them home.

Due to this I've started to notice Sam try and take the girls attention away from me and onto HIM, probably not because he likes the girl but because he can't stand the fact she found me attractive and I was the first pick. One case was even was I was dating a girl and he openly flirted with her in front of my eyes and didn't even pay attention to me or his fb! This has come to light because I read an article on a website about cockblocks and this is why players do it. For validation and to prove that he's still more attractive than me (Even though this has blatantly changed up).

He's a really good mate of mine and I live with him. I don't want to get aggressive with him but I will speak to him if he ever does it again.
What do you guys think of this situation and how can I handle it better next time?

just think right now, you are basicly trying to do the same thing as him, who cares who is first and who is second, if you both get laid, you both win, as for a buddy flirting with your girlfriend, you have to pick and choose where to draw a line, and outline your boundries

If I get in this situation I just sit him down and sought out some strict rules. What me and my wing basically used to do is opener would have first dibs, but if no momentum has been established within about 10 minutes than the follower can run game (presuming a 1 set or single target). Once it's clear who the girl is more interested in, the other has to back off, if it's not clear paper-rock-scissors to decide who games and who doesn't.

So basically we take it in turns in gaming her until one has an advantage, and then other is forced to back off. It worked pretty well actually, it was rare we were bothing running full game simultaniously.

I think the most important thing though is to have a mutual respect for your wing and understand each other. You're working as a team not in competition. You'll rarely have problems with a good wing, only a dickhead mate would try and snatch a girl from under you.

I understand both your points completely however. When we were at the party where we met the girl they were both speaking and I thought he liked her, he was asking people to take pictures of them together etc. However the turning point in the night was where they were both speaking at the table and I was sitting down near the playlist on the other side of the room. She basically moved all the way across the room and started playing with the iPod next to me. So we started talking and I basically asked her if she wanted to speak outside. After that point she was into me and we both got a taxi into town. Later on in the night my friend was buying her drinks and all this etc.

Now you may say 'dude your friend was way into her'. Yeah but why would she move all the way across the room just to speak to me when she was with him and then basically cling to me for the rest of the night? Surely it's safe to say she's mine at that point.

However is it still right for him to try and flirt with her even harder after he knows I get her and we are dating?

I don't think so but what do you guys think.

I really don't think that would've been the answer to the issue lol.
It just seems to me as though the first two answers said I didn't play to bros code and took the girl when he liked her.
