My girlfriend and I have been going out for about a year and two months, and over the course of university(in 3rd year now), i've noticed a trend. Perhaps it's because i'm also "taken" now as well.

I've become friends with a few girls since I joined this particular club at school, and at one point it came out that I had a girlfriend, talk ensued, etc. This one girl and I have been having decent conversations and we've grown to be friends who talk about a lot of things when we're together. And just today I was waiting with her and another friend cause they were waiting to be picked up at school. She gave me a big hug before she left!

It may be nothing, it may just be a hug as friends. But i've seen this happen a lot, in which girls are very flirty and friendly with guys who have girlfriends and not so much with other guys. I don't think it has so much to do with a "want what they can't have" attitude, but more of the idea that since the guy is taken, nothing can happen between them, so might as well have some fun. I'm just wondering if anyone else has observed this in recent times. Back when I didn't have a girl or anything I got no attention...weird how things always seem to be at one extreme or the other when it comes to girls!
