What motivates girls to 'cockblock'?

Wow, not true at all. Just read this thread to see numerous examples of how that isn't true.

What you need is a friend to counter-cockblock. I was once pulling a girl, and her friend clearly wasn't happy, one of those occasions where she was clearly more attractive and getting all the attention. My mate started dancing with her, but she wasn't having any of it and was clearly annoyed. It ended up with my mate basically just blocking her off (it was a crowded dance floor so she couldn't get round), which was successful.

Now that's being a good friend.

Your friend sounds like a deity and awesome to an extreme degree.

It was an inspirational moment. Since then, I've always strived to be the best wingman I can be. Pass on the love.

YES, I'M GLAD SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT!!
Literally the first thought that came to mind was jealousy, none of this sister solidarity/looking out for your mates stuff lol
If she was JUST dancing with him, I seriously see no need to cockblock

Personally I think 'cockblocking' is a myth. My female friends will only try and drag me away from talking to a guy if he's unattractive and/or they can tell I'm feeling uncomfortable.

If I really want to talk to a guy and I'm enjoying the conversation and I want to give him my number there's nothing my friends can do to 'cockblock'.
Clock blocking is just an excuse for guys with no game in my opinion.

If she is drunk, she might just be having fun? If she is single its completely fine whatever the hell happens to her.

The girl that stops her is the one who is sober and probably does not have the confidence to do the same.

I know from experience, this is what girls do. It is not to protect their friend. As much as girls say they do, it is always the ones that are sober or not getting any attention that do these kind of stuff.

or the.. "DONT WANNA GO HOME ALONE, GONNA BRING HER HOME WITH ME"

Why do you need to be dragged away from talking to unattractive guys?

That's pretty bitchy. Maybe you have a different view of attractive than them? Or you're just enjoying his company?

Some girls feel it's their duty to stop their friends being "sluts"- sadly, slut shaming does regularly occur within female groups. My girlfriend had a friend like this, she lectured her the first time we got together, and the next time literally tried to pull her away, she had to really tell her to go away. That was really nice though, because girls normally just go with their friends, even if they clearly don't want to.

Let's not make this debate personal. I have been in a position when a girl latches on. It does get awkward but I deal with it myself. Its easy to walk away and hide with friends. The OP described a very different scenario whereby they are both enjoying each others company but a friend swoops in a dragged the girl away claiming it was for her own benefit. You wouldn't normally find that within a male group of friends. When you do its usually resentment for that particular girl and they will make their intentions clear about that.

I am sorry but your illiteracy and poor grammar makes it hard indeed to decipher your comment.

Lol its not bitchy at all, my friends just know what my type is. But if I'm enjoying the conversation I won't allow my friends to pull me away anyway.
I don't know what kind of old school females you and your girlfriend know but I can assure you none of my friends, or any of the females I know will slut shame a female for talking to a guy who is trying to chat her up lol.
But exactly, if a female is interested she will tell her friend to back off. What men view as 'cockblocking' is usually just our friends saving us. Some females even have special signals which they slyly give to their friends to rescue them lol.

Basically, I went out with a big group on Thursday, who all knew each other. Unsurprisingly, some of us were quite drunk. Getting to the point, one of the girl was getting dancing with me, and we were getting pretty close, until her friend then went and cock-blocked the **** out of me in someway and sent the girl home pretty much

To make matters worse, when the girl who stepped in got back to campus, she told all the other girls, and probably made me seem like I was being a creep of some kind.

So what's usually the motive behind cockblocking?

I hate the word cock. *Shudders*

And this is why girls get raped. Your username is very apt.
