Why does my gf keep doing this? It's getting on my nerves...

Not really sure why my gf does this.. but it does get on my nerves at times and often a bit embarrassing.

Some situations :-

We were shopping at a Morrisons, I decided to go to the fishmonger area while she continued along the aisles, there were 2 Chinese girls trying to buy a salmon and the bloke behind the counter had trouble understanding them... so I tried to help them and also started talking a bit to those 2 girls, they got their salmon and started asking me why I spoke their language so well, then my gf sees me in conversation with them, she quickly pushes the trolley to stand by my side and starts telling them she is the gf.

There was this time we were at a pub, I got on talking to 3 girls that I knew from a conference (they work for a competitor), we exchanged business cards and then we start talking..... my gf comes into the conversation and tells all the 3 she is the gf, then she tells me she wants to go home. I asked her what's wrong she said nothing.

There was this time, I was walking the dog at a a park and one lady I knew her to be the owner of a certain business establishment and got talking to her because I wanted an appointment to see her. My gf was in the park as well and the moment she saw me talking to that lady she quickly comes over and starts telling that lady I am the bf. Then again she said we should go home.

Then there was this time I had just returned from work, I saw this boy trying to paint a plastic model car... he is the son of a neighbour of mine who knows me well. I taught him a few tricks to do it better, and I got talking to my neighbour, she is a middle aged woman with 2 sons. My gf saw me talking to her, again she marches over and quickly tells the neighbour I am the bf and starts saying something to the fact that it was late and she wanted to eat.

The first time it happened was also at a pub, we were still at uni at that time. She dragged me along when she was meeting up with some of her mates, seeing as the conversation was revolving around topics I did not enjoy and I saw one exchange student I knew, I excused myself to talk to her...... we bought a round of drinks and started talking, my gf came by she places her daughter on me and said she was going to the toilet, but before going to the toilet she tells that exchange student she is my gf. She goes to the toilet then she starts hovering around that exchange student and me, we decide to speak in German then since my gf does not understand it... and as soon as my gf realized we were exchanging numbers, she starts asking to go home.

Just curious, why does she keep doing that? Sometimes I would rather she not do that... how could I tell her to not do that.

she seems properly insecure, you need to talk to her about it and ask why she does it

out of interest, how do you react when you see her talking to guys?

Is she always lurking around? Seems like she comes out of nowhere and does the same thing.

I'd be upset too if I found you exchanging numbers with so many other girls. Can't you include her in the conversations? (Esp the last one)

She's just jealous, and there seems to be misunderstanding. But I can't stand either if my boyfriend takes more interest in anothergirl and leaves me in the background.

You know exactly why she does it, you know this is a pointless thread.

SHE LOVES YOU, YOU DUMBSH*T.

Why DO you speak their language so well?

I did ask her about it usually by asking her if something is amiss when she wants to go home early. She would always say nothing. On times when I asked her why she did that, she would just say she is the gf and she can do that.

As for how I react... I usually just ignore it and let her be, I trust her to do what she wants. But tbh, I've not seen her talk to any guys and she doesn't really make any effort to get to know any.

Just include her in the conversations more?

My gf does similar sometimes but normally only if she is drunk. Like recently we were in a bar and I overheard a girl say she went to a certain uni and it happened to be a uni I used to go to. Ended up talking to her for ages and then eventually my gf came to find me, I introduced her to the girl as my gf and my gf gave her a chronically evil look. The girl promptly left and it was a bit embarrassing but I can understand why she did, it's instinct to a certain extent.

She seems a bit insecure.

Ask her why she does it? She (if she's anything like me) wont admit to it, but if she does, reassure her that these women are just friends.

She is insecure, maybe a bit paranoid because of it.

Just talk to her about it she probably needs reassurance, my girlfreind can be very similar but it can be dealt with if you try to be understanding.

i would personally want to punch her if she said that.
if it's bothering you - make it clear to her that you're not her bitch and that you don't appreciate her acting like she doesn't trust you around girls...even middle-aged women, wtf?
you can say it in a nice way, whatever. but she needs to know.

I tried asking her about it, she maintains that she can do that as she is the gf.
