I read something somewhere on this forum that astonished me recently. This idea that a girl bringing up her boyfriend in conversation might actually be more beneficial to you than you once previously thought...

This cute girl that I'm neighbors with talks to me whenever we see each other outside walking our dogs. About a week ago, I walked with her to the mailboxes and she was asking me questions about the rules around this condo place and about snow plowing in the winter and shit similar to that. I made some kino with my arm on her shoulder while pointing out a few things in the neighborhood, and I had her laughing with some of the stuff I was saying. Eventually when we made our way back to my steps, she asked if I had met her boyfriend yet, and I told her I hadnt. We made some small talk and she she was like, "Hey I wanted to let you know that I never came back to the pool after that day when we first met cause I just got this tattoo (that she showed me) and I didnt wanna ruin it in the sun. I didnt want you to think I didnt wanna hang out." She brought up her boyfriend again and I made some joke about married life and she was like, "Oh god I don't even wanna think about that right now." Long story short I ended up making her laugh while tooling on her bf without sounding like a dick. I just made him seem average and boring and before i knew it she brought up some of her own examples and we laughed. Then told her I had to go to play my guitar and she said she had to go check on her dogs (haha does that even make sense? sound like something quick on the fly...)

I think it's important to mention as well I did make things a bit sexual. In the middle of the conversation, after she mentioned her absence from the pool, I said "Ya know what's funny. The thing that made me remember you from that day was that you had the pink nails/toe nails, a cute little pink top and bottom, and these little pink gauges... Most girls nowadays look so dumpy, but I looked to my buddy and said, wow, this girl actually cares to look presentable. That really impressed me, even though pink is kind of a common color..."

And she lit up and was like, "Omg I cant believe you remember that." But her facial expression when she said it was like, *Someone deserves a blowy.* "I love matching. Right now, I'm not, but I always do. (Validating herself.)

Anyway, what do you guys think? In your experience is it usually better off to your advantage if she brings him up? Is that her way of trying to resist her attraction towards you, or is it just a test? If I get the chance I am SOOOOOOOO gonna pound this chick. Any advice is welcome, fellas.
