My bf and I went out to eat the other night and it was great. I had mention that this guy stopped talking to me at this coffee shop by my work that I frequent because now he knew I had a bf. My bf replied saying that it wasn't a smart move by him because "God forbid if you ever become single again" he could have a possiblity. What could my bf mean by that quote?

Wow...I think potentially some folks may be reading a lot more into the comment than was necessarily intended. Maybe it was just a general comment like about not burning bridges. Maybe he feels secure in your relationship and was just making an off-hand comment about people "burning bridges", not meaning anything deep by it. Like others did mention, he said "God forbid...." which would indicate that he isn't, by any means, wishing for anything like that to happen. I wouldn't read too much into it (unless of course he has, or does make other odd or questionable comments).

What he meant was that if you were to become single again...IF....by that guy blowing you off just because you had a boyfriend shows that he was not really interested in you as a person and that IF you were single, because of this guys actions you would not give him a chance now.

He may have meant>>> if you were to break up with him, then you'd have no future prospects, because you're not making sure to keep other guys interested in you.
He may be looking at it like this>>> just because you have a boyfriend now, it doesn't mean other guys should stop talking to you... because if they stop talking to you just because you have a boyfriend, it would show lack of interest in you... like you're not worth talking to, much less pursuing.
Your boyfriend may be looking at it from that point of view, but he needs to realize that some guys will back off from you out of respect for you & your boyfriend.

I think he was saying that you're attractive and someone woth being around. Now if you become single that guy won't know because he's not talking to you. I say things about my fiance and I not being together, but that doesn't mean I don't want to be with him. If you hear, "Why are you with me?" then you should worry. Because that's what I asked when I wanted to break-up with someone.. but I'd rather they broke up with me so I wouldn't have to hurt their feelings.

1. Well, you had it comming... NEVER mention to him (or any other guy you might date) such "approaches" - even if they are harmless. Put yourself in his place... He has to trust you, when you are not with him.
2. He tried to "mask" his feelings with a (bitter) joke - good for him! Even if the joke can be seen also as an unpleasent remark...
So, just act like it was ONLY a joke. And forget about it.
Anyway, WHY did you tell him that??? To achieve... what?
What did you expect to hear?
Be careful, relationships are fragile.
One word or one phrase can ruin them... unintentionally

He means that the guy should have kept talking to you because if you ever became unattached again that he would have a chance at you. Plus he was being sarcastic by saying that he didn't appreciate other guys talking to you and was hinting that if they were and you were talking to them there could be problems

You will find someone! Be confident in your self! There are no ugly women in this world, only lazy ones. Becoming beautiful takes effort. Cleanse your face daily, exercise, and tell yourself you are beautiful. Guys love confident women who love and respect themselves. Don't be insecure and you are NOT a loser. =D I'm sure everything will work out for you <3

Greeneyes, I'm a guy and I'll tell you that your bf loves you. He needed to emphasize that he won't be looking for another gurl again that's why he added "God forbids". I think he truly believes in God and he's very sure you do also. Please be rest assured that he's on your side. Cheers!!!

Your bf was mad that you mentioned the attention of another guy and threw that out to try and hurt you by making you think he could just disappear at any time.
