Anyone ever have a confrontation with a brother/ boyfriend while trying to pick a girl up? How did you handle it, what happened, etc.?

haha one of the first times i approached this girl sitting outside starbucks while visiting my dad in florida. I said "hey i had to come and say you're really cute". immediately she said "i have a boyfriend hes going to be here in 10 minutes"...i was like uhh all right..and told her that's cool i just wanted to compliment her.

Guy sits down 10 minutes later im inside on my laptop he comes inside and leans in and says "if you hit on my girlfriend again im going to sock you in the face". i was taken a back and was kind of laughing and was like "lol all right dude you're not over-reacting". Thats literally worst case scenario and chances are it wont happen. The girl also was like a 7/10---

I could've challenged the guy but didnt really feel like getting into a fight in the middle of starbucks over some girl who thought she was hot shit, and didnt really give a shit at that point if some guy got that butthurt about it>

moral of the story, just approach. if the guy has a problem i usually just use sarcasm to deflect "oh i mean my girlfriend loves it when guys do it to her" or some shit. not a big deal

As a "girl" if the guy who was attempting to pick me up engaged in a fight/argument with my boyfriend or brother or their brother (you didn't quite make this clear), i would probally not be interested in them.

This kind of stuff usually only happens in the minds of guys who don't actually go and approach.

I guess it depends on the point that the BF/brother finds out. Honestly, I think the most dangerous place to be is when you first approach. And honestly, you couldn't have known if they are single or not at that point. So, there's really nothing to fight about in that situation. I say something like "It's cool bro I didn't know" and they usually skulk off pretty fast.

On the other hand, I've slept 4 women with boyfriends who have found out about it (that I am even aware of, probably much more) and they didn't do anything. I think at that point they are mad at the girl, not you.

let the boyfriend come off as the dick. i like a line like hey, i didnt know you guys were together. thats great, be happy that you have such an awesome girlfriend. it cant fail. he cant attack you for that. and if he tells her, you only look even better. if hes a jerk like that a lot this could pay off later.
