Overfamiliarity

Tonight my boyfriend arranged for us and some friends to watch the football. Some of them brought friends out. I got there a few minutes late due to road works. When I got there, there was 1 woman we had not met before and she was sitting next to my boyfriend. He had never met her before either. He let me sit down between them. Throughout the game she kept leaning across, talking to him, flirting and touching his arm. He was oblivious to what was going on. He absolutely adores me. Why do some women think it's ok to flirt with other people's partners? He gets this a lot where he is just being friendly but women interpret it as interest.

My DH wouldn't notice if a was flirting with him unless she literally said she was interested.

He's quite a easy going person who's quite easy to generally chat to and he likes to joke and laugh;unfortunately won

Sent too soon

*women mistake this for interest.

I think some women are insecure and do it for the feel good factor when flirting with a man they know is attached.For some it's a power play and others just don't care.

All that matters is the trust you have in your partner.

Sounds like she was making a tit of herself. I wouldn't think anything of it more than that.

Did she even know you're together though?

Flirting in isolation could be unintentional or could be you being sensitive ie reading too much into a normal comment cause he’s your partner

However everything combined here - he really needed to shut down any physical contact and pay more attention to you

Later on she called him an effing tw*t because he wanted Wales to win. No need for that. He didn't say anything to her too. I hope I don't see her again.
