8 Ways to Tame a Guy Who Flirts With Other Women

1. FLIRT BACK. Sometimes the only way to get a guy to under that what he’s doing isn’t appropriate is by showing him. Next time your guy flirts in front of your face, chat it up with the next hot guy you see...right in front of his face!

2. CALL HIM ON IT. If you catch your guy in the act flirting with other women, don’t fret or get upset. Instead, call him out. Ask the woman he flirts with what she thinks of his style and if she thinks he should be flirting like that with his significant other present. It’s going to embarrass him into behaving like a gentleman and shows him that you are not going to stand for being disrespected.

3. MAKE A BET. The next time you go out with your guy, make a bet with him. Tell him that you believe he can’t stop flirting with other women in front of you. He’s going to say that he definitely can. Bet whatever you’d like and if he loses, make him pay up.

4. DON’T BE A THIRD WHEEL. When you guy starts flirting with another woman in front of you, don’t stay silent like an unwanted third wheel. Interject yourself into the conversation and give your opinion on what’s going on. Is your guy trying to convince the waitress that he works out? Let the waitress know that the last time your guy saw a gym was when he was in high school. She’ll appreciate your honesty.

5. IGNORE HIM. You can try to ignore his childish flirting, but often, that’s easier said than done. It’s hard not to react when your guy is flirting in front of you. But if you can ignore it without becoming resentful, please do.

6. DUMP HIM. If your guy’s flirting is too much to handle, dump him. You can’t go through the rest of your life with a guy you aren’t happy with. Remember, he’s not going to change and you’re not going to be able to make him. So if your guy is a flirt now, he’ll still be a flirt 10 years down the road.

7. DISS HIM. The next time you’re out and your guy starts chatting up with other women, leave. That’s right, just get up from the table or wherever you are and leave. Catch a cab home, call a girlfriend, etc. but don’t stay there and put up with it. When he asks you why he’s leaving, make sure you let him know exactly why. He’ll soon get it in his head that flirting with other women means he’s going to be left eating alone at a restaurant without you.

8. REALIZE THAT HE’S INSECURE. Guys flirt with other women because they’re insecure about themselves. They need to feel like they can engage a woman other than their wives or girlfriends and pick up a chick in a bar or restaurant. They may be totally delusional, but once that waitress who is paid to be nice, flirts back, a guy is encouraged and continues to do it.
