Someone told me that in this situation, the girlfriend should tell the guy off for being disrespectful to her man, and that if the girlfriend actually acknowledges the guy by making eye contact (even accidentally, not by being flirtatious or anything, but just making eye contact because he is in her field of vision) , then she is totally disrespecting her bf.

Does this make any sense? Do you expect your girlfriend to stand up for you in a situation like this? Someone told me that by the girlfriend not cursing the other guy off and by actually acknowledging him by looking at him, she is humliating and disrespecting her significant other. Because by telling the dude off she is saving her bf the trouble of having to kick the guy's ass.

Form a guy's point of view is this a common thought process? To expect your girlfriend to back you up all the time whenever there are other guys around so they know that she's taken? Or is it expecting too much?

Just a hypothetical question, that's all.
