Many women thrive on competition. They like to feel like they "won".

I had a female friend ask me this one time, "how come it is when I'm seeing no-one, no-one wants to ask me out. But when I get a boyfriend then other guys become interested." The same thing goes with guys. Maybe they think that the ones that have someone are better cuz someone is with them. Maybe they think someone is single cuz something is wrong with them... that's why they are alone. So they are more interested in the ones that have appeared to have gotten approval from someone?
Also, there is the wanting what you can't have. Have you heard the saying, stolen fruit is more sweet .... & exciting for some. (I totally don't agree as I think dirty isn't exciting.) Competition..... etc.

The official term is 'social proof' and yes it is because women are competitive. But the reason why women are competitive is because they see something of value that is sought after by other women. So if other women are spending time with a man, they will think he is in demand and suddenly they are interested.
Same when a woman finds out a man has a good looking girlfriend and all of a sudden, they start flirting with him, when before they wouldn't give him the time of day.
Oh dear....if only women would objectify us and treat us like pieces of meat, without us having to prove ourselves all the time. And in this era of supposed equality of the sexes, this double standard still exists...Oh, I feel so oppressed! ;-)

Funny, the guys I see whom many females hang around are average joes. They are not handsome nor are popular in general, but I find that they connect with the females and have lots of things to talk about with them and do not have the type of ego most men have.
I think females think your friend must have lots of things in common with women so he's probably a good catch, not much of his physical appearance or the excitement of competition. Because as you said, those women are friends with him, they aren't going after him.

Because you have women around you, you can't be that bad. The women around you have already deemed you "acceptable" which makes it easier for other women to meet you.
