Me and my GF ( whom I care for a lot) go to the same artist gathering night every week. I am a very friendly person, I talk to a lot of different people there not just ladies. Why does my GF's friend always point out the fact that OOOHHH I am talking to another lady and that my GF better watch out!??!?!? Am I being disrespectful by talking to other ladies when we are out together?? Or is my GF's friend just trying to cause trouble?!?!? If so why ??
Please explain??

Your GF's friends are definitely adding fuel to the fire. Let them know that when you need a peanut gallery, you'll give them a call.
Some girls need a crowd for support or someone to reinforce their insecurities. It sounds like your GF has in some way (either directly or indirectly) let her friend have the idea that she needs her help in this area as far as you're concerned. If you've never given her a reason to doubt your feelings, I wouldn't worry too much. Next time your chatting up another chick, maybe take the opportunity to intro her to your GF; that way you're GF will feel super-special, it would totally make her friend gush (and probably a little jealous) and you'll look the the uber-cool BF I am sure you are.
Good Luck! You sound like a really nice a guy :)

She's trying to cause trouble. There's nothing wrong with you socializing with other females as long as you aren't being disrespectful to your girlfriend, hiding your actions and/or being a flirt with the other ladies.
This friend sounds like trouble. Hopefully your girlfriend won't fall into the trap and start becoming insecure. People cause trouble for various reasons - the friend could be jealous of the relationship, unhappy with herself, jealous of your girlfriend, attracted to you or plain and simple - a messy person.
Either way - watch out.

Sounds like your GF's friend is jealous. Hopefully your GF will think the same. If not have a heart to heart with you GF , tell her what her friend is saying is rediculous and is making you upset. If she cares about you, she'll talk to her "friend." Obviously you are an outgoing and friendly guy, and I'm assuming that's why your GF started dating you in the first palce =)

I don't feel that she is causing trouble. This is just the type of standards she would have in a relationship. There is simply nothing wrong with talking to others when you GF is with you. Your GF friend got issues within herself. I am sorry for her man if she even have one.

I don't think you're being disrespectful, it sounds like the GF's friend may be jealous of your relationship, and has a general mistrust of men. Maybe she got hurt one time in the same sort of situation.
Talk to your girlfriend, and maybe mention what her friend is saying to you, also. Chances are, she doesn't even know...

Sounds like your GF's friend has a complex. She may be the jealous type and is transferring her insecurity to her friend's relationship.

She's projecting her own insecurities onto your GF trying to stir the pot. Perhaps your GF should put her in her place and tell her to mind her own business. I am willing to bet the friend does not have a boyfriend of her own.

It sounds like your girlfriend's friend needs to stay out of your personal life. If your girlfriend did not like you talking to other girls (which I think is immature), then she should tell you. As long as the two of you are happy with the way things are going, just ignore her friend. But, just to be safe ask your girlfriend how it makes her feel.

aah! Girls LOVE drama. It's pathetic. That's why. And no, you're not being disrepectful, you have the right to socialize. I'd watch out for that friend if I was you, friends like that are known to screw up relationships...good luck :-)

she's a trouble maker. if you aren't flirting with other women or handing out your number then you are not wrong. if your girlfriend doesn't have a problem then her friend should butt out. she is probably jealous of your relationship and wants it to end. misery loves company.
