My gf tells me about other guys that try to approach her, invite her out, etc. Then it made me a little jealous and I said not to mention one of them, an exfriend. She said that she tried to tell me about her life. Somehow is good that she tells me and I know all. Or all women experience constant approaching from men and I am paranoid? Anyhow I don't like hearing much about other guys.
Thanks for reading that.

Try to be a good listener, you might learn a few things. Be a good sport when you meet them and try to be polite. The important thing is that she is your gf now. What is the feeling behind your being jealous? Mad? Try to look inside yourself and see where that anger is coming from, sometimes behind the anger is fear? Check yourself and find out what is causing your uncomfortability and deal with these things otherwise it might turn her off. Good luck

Different people do it for different reasons. Believe me,it isn't only women that do it. I've had guys do it too. Some do it to make you jealous,some to get you riled up,some want you to take charge like their knight in shining armor & then some are just talking to you as a friend or letting you know what's going on in case some tells you & adds more to it. Others just don't know when to keep their mouths shut after you tell them you rather not hear abt out.
I had this same problem w/a guy before. The way I dealt w/him was(after I explained how I felt abt it),evertime he brought up the subject of another girl,I started talking abt another guy. He caught on after a few times. Hope this helps you.

She wants to find out how you feel about that. She wants to know if you get jealous or protective. If you just let it go and don't react to it then she thinks you don't care. If she tells you and you stand up to other guys and tell them to leave her alone then you are showing your bravery to her. If you shrug it off and don't do anything and cower away from it then you are whimping out and she thinks you don't care about her enough to protect her. It is a game we women often play to see just how much our men care about us. If they don't react then we think they don't really care about us. Relationships that are worth keeping for a long time and into marriages are ones where both people can communicate with each other. If she can't talk to you about what is on her mind then that isn't good. We women like to be aqble to open up and discuss anything with our man. My husband of 30 years is my best friend. He protects me and loves me and trusts me and talks to me. That is all a girl can ask for in her marriage. That is what you girl is asking of you.

Settle down, she could just be having conversation, but it could also be a situational test where she wants to see if you will react--to see if you are apt to get jealous. Maybe the point is to get you jealous so that you value what you have in her because she gets approached alot, or maybe she is insecure and it makes her feel good to realize that others seem to want her. At any rate, it is no big deal just because she is your girlfriend that doesn't mean that the two of you have exited the real world where people are constantly exposed to other people.

When a woman becomes friends with a guy, she'll talk to him like he's one of the girls. This includes telling you about guys that hit on her.
If she brings it up, just tell her you appreciate her honesty and willingness to share information with you, but you'd prefer not to hear about other guys.
Ask her if she'd like it if you mentioned how women are flirting with you?
If she pushes the issue, joke with her and say something like, "Oh, I get it! You're trying to make me jealous." Then laugh.
Change the subject of the conversation to something else.

I hear you, man. This sort of thing sucks, big time.
Yeah, guys are always approaching women, it is just a fact of life you are going to have to live with. That is not to say, however, that your girlfriend should be rubbing your nose in, if you catch my drift. Tell her it makes you feel uncomfortable, and not to mention these things to you in the future.

Ummm....why can't she tell you? Sometimes pretty women do get approached a lot by guys, she's just confiding to you like to a friend.
If not you, I supposed she'll go and confide to all her gfs. Women need to talk and tell each other what happened and all the gossip etc. lol.

She's telling you about the other guys to make herself feel wanted. She is telling you that you really are lucky to have her, because all these other guys want her also. If this bothers you, then tell her that if she wants to be with them, then she needs to go, because you are tired of hearing about them. Maybe she needs to act better, then maybe these guy wouldn't be coming on to her, or she is just someone that attracts men, after all she attracted you didn't she.

Me and my bf joke about the guys/gals that try to pick us up when we're out.
Don't be paranoid about it. You trust your girlfriend? If yes, then what do you care if some sleazy guy is trying to ask her out? SHE IS YOUR GIRLFRIEND!!!
