Is is just me or do girls want guys that already have a girlfriend. It seems when I have a girl on my arm I get all kinds of play.
Is it just me...

vi_edit has got it. that's the evolutionary psychological reason anyway.
when you have a woman it means you have more resources, women want to increase their fitness by pairing with a mate which has the most resources possible. The more resources a woman is able to achieve the more likely she will be able to care for and raise offspring which pass her genes (it's all about increasing the amount of genes passed on to the next generation, the more offspring, the higher the chance that you will pass on more genes etc). A woman is not going to spend time with men who have to resources (well unless they can trick themselves into believing the man has more resources than he really does, but that is another matter entirely).

Yep, I see that all the time. Seems like no one likes you when youre single, then if you get a girlfriend, everyone seems to want you.
Nope, it's not just you.
I have had to put up with untold scores of women, whether they be neighbors, my husband's co workers, or acquaintances, who make all kinds of eyes and seductive motions towards Mr Isla. It's tiresome. I can tell right away, too... Don't these women realize body language is very easy to read?
They get some kind of fantasy in their head about what kind of man he must be... but in reality, it takes work to live with him and get along with him, just like anyone else.
Fortunately, I do have a couple of loyal girlfriends who truly love me and while they have admitted they think he is sexy, they wouldn't want to take him from me. I don't mind when they flirt with him because I know that they understand the reality of him and are not caught up in some fantasy world.

I think it has something to do with the whole "women are vultures" thing. 
No really I think they are really into the challenge of trying to get you to take her instead of the woman you're supposed to be 'devoted' to. It's something sick like that.

Look at it this way:
If you're taken, there has to be something about you that makes your girlfriend, well, your girlfriend. There must be something interesting about you. That's why when you go out with girls, other girls will pay more attention to you, since there has to be (in their view) something about you.
BTW, that does not work the other way - we guys just look at any girls: single, with a guy, with girlfriends, with a girl, ...

So that would make cheating for men a natural thing, right? We are, given by our nature, always trying to secure our family and our trait. And therefore, spreading our territory and seeds as far and broad as possuble, we will then be more resistant to extinction. So sleeping with more women will guarantee our survival, right?
I like that!

I always thought that once you are in a committed relationship, other women see you as being "safe". They are now free to flirt with you without the fear of committing themselves to you. Since you are supposed to be off limits, they are already prepared for the rejection.
I have always treated it as innocent flirting that will never go anywhere.

its because turning on another womans man is the ultimate validation.
well at least thats what my slutty friends tell me.
*kat. <-- has slutty friends.

Hmmm, wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that men do it too! Okay, way too much guy bashing for me. Just think of it as a compliment guys, I know I do. And then you can tell your s.o. how lucky she is to be with a guy that is so wanted by so many different walks of life.
