As a shorter guy, this is something I see quite a lot of: I open a girl, flirt with her, tease her, she’s having a good time.

All of a sudden, a random guy approaches and tries to interrupt me.

I don’t see this happen nearly as often to taller guys 6’0” but for me, it happens just about in any setting, even Parties and Meetup events. Another guy comes up and interrupts the conversation and spits his own version of game.

This was incredibly frustrating for a while and I tried just about everything to try to overcome it. I tried agree and amplify to whatever underhanded insult the other guy threw my way. But that would quickly devolve into the girl losing interest in both me and the other guy since it was just 2 guys trying to one up each other... not good

I tried going on the attack and insulting the other guy’s fashion or comparing him to a dumb movie character... but same thing as before, this would just result in 2 guys fighting over one girl, which means the girl loses interest.

I even tried going the apocalypse route. “You... get the fuck out of here now! Or I’ll fucking murder you!” to try to intimidate them into leaving but unfortunately, this scared the girl off too. Really dumb on my part please don’t do this. I’m lucky I didn’t get killed.

I finally discovered the secret after I tried to interrupt another dude’s set and steal his girl. He didn’t insult me. He didn’t even look my way. And that’s the secret. Total and complete ignoring, like a king would do if a peasant approached him. His girl remained glued to him, and even told me to go away!

This was incredible! I began applying and modifying this new discovery and found that this is by far the most effective way of dealing with guys that try to steal your girl. It demonstrates that the guy is such low value that he’s not even worth your time to notice.

In fact, I made a slight modification after dealing with one too many persistent guys that got angry and kept trying to enter the conversation anyways: apologizing on their behalf!

I still wouldn’t even so much as glance at the other guy. He’s not worthy of my attention. But I would “apologize” to the girl on his behalf. “I’m so sorry, we keep getting interrupted, my apologies”.

What this does is it conveys that not only is the other guy not worthy of attention, but also that his social intelligence is so low, he can’t even recognize that he’s interrupting and thus, I have to “apologize” on his behalf the way a Dad would for his misbehaving son!

At this point, usually the girl will tell the other guy to leave! Same thing that happened to me. Simple, brutally effective strategy to prevent other guys from stealing your girl.

Of course, all this goes out the window if the guy knows the girl. For that you’ll need actual social skills to befriend the guy.
