You don't react, you act. Don't be phased.

"I hope you gave them your number" or "I wouldn't like a girls who doesn't get complimented" then slap her ass.

"He sounds like a guy with good taste."

Agree and say you get compliments too. No biggie.

Women falsely believe that jealousy works on men like it works on women (they become even more aroused when jealous). That's not the case. Men become resentful if they feel jealousy. So eventually women destroy relationships like that, using men's tactics against them. What works on women rarely ever works on men. Both sexes are different. And have different incentives.

"Yeah, I know what you mean... the attention is nice, but I find that it borders on harassment sometimes. I mean, you say no to a girl, and that should be the end of it right? But noooooo.... they just keep on at you...."

Ignore

She's trying to make you jealous and is seeking validation at the same time. You either ignore it or agree and amplify.

She's testing you to see if you'll get jealous / defensive. You've got to know her well enough to know how she's looking for you to handle it, probably just a "I don't blame them but I'll kill them if they try anything" kinda thing

Classic shit test. Smile. Pat her on the head and say "you're so adorable, how could they not?"

Treat her like a child

Or

You can agree and amplify:

"Ohhh good.. was one of them a sugar daddy? I need a new macbook".

Either of these will work.

Just a thought from a woman here—if she’s doing that, she may be childish, but the way to really be awesome in the situation is not to give hate with hate. The most mature thing to do is have a conversation about it. I’d look at her in the eyes and say something like “babe, am I not complimenting you enough?” Or give her three compliments to counteract it. Then throw her over your shoulder and fuck her. That’s what she wants. She’s trying to communicate that she’s feeling like low hanging fruit—that these men are affecting her. If they aren’t complimenting her, and she made it up, she’s acting out of insecurity. The only thing to replace insecurity with is security not rudeness.

Now, if she a crazy ass bitch and you don’t want to do the long term emotional work, eh, be done. Or roll your eyes.

She should recive contempt vibe from you when bringing up such topic. It only shows she tries to pull disrespect card, powerplay or just shit test.

Dont play her game.

“Sounds like they have low standards” with a smirk.

"Cool story bro. I like u but I dont need u. Thread carefully"
