I think what some of you guys are forgetting is that there are women who are perpetually in a relationship not because a guy rocks her world, but for the comfort and ability to be able to turn down guys she’s not interested in.
And when a guy she is interested in approaches, suddenly her boyfriend becomes “a guy she goes out with occasionally, nothing serious.”
If she’s married, then hands off. If she’s serious or committed to a future with her boyfriend, same thing. Otherwise, she’s fair game.
