Sometimes it just doesn't come up -- especally around people that you really don't know that well and don't talk to that much. Your close friends would probably know that you were dating someone, because you would naturally talk about your dates and/or ask for relationship advice. But I don't think that is is natural to stop everyone that you pass in the hall and announce to them that you are dating someone. It would seem to be an odd thing to do, wouldn't it?
I suppose if someone is "hitting" on you, or droping a hint that she wants to date you, then that would be a proper time to let that person know that you have a girlfriend.
Otherwise, it is none of anyone else's business whom you are seeing.
P.S.: If no one knows that you have a GF simply because you have no close friends to talk about it to, that is a different problem. Maybe you need to be more sociable and make more GUY friends! You cannot mature in your relationship skills if you have no friends, period. Not having any guy friends that you can turn to for advice leaves you in a very bad position whenever you and your GF fights, and you have no one to turn to for help.

In my life I only mention my boyfriend if it somehow fits into the conversation. I don't think that you need to tell everyone you meet that you are in a relationship. If someone asks you than yes you need to be honest and tell them your in a relationship. Sometimes if I feel that someone might be flirting with me I might try to find a way into the conversation to mention my boyfriend just so they know I am taken. And I don't think there is anything wrong with flirting as long as you are not trying to cheat.

Your question is a little confusing..
but yeah after 8 months? Most people should know you have a gf. Especially if you talk a lot. It's not a matter of someone knowing your private life. If you are proud of your relationship, people should know!
I can see why your gf would be mad!!

Not to be mean here bro but your grammar, punctuation and logic is a "little confusing". I would suggest getting a few books on English and learning to write. It may help you in relationships if you improve your communication skills.
