Ok I've been dating this girl. We have both told each other that we were starting to develop feelings for each other. We have had and sex and I've spent the night with her a few times. She has mentioned this guy before that lives down the street from her but I never met him. Well last night I went to pick her up and he was there. She introduced us and then he left. She said he wanted to hang out with her tonight but she told him she couldn't because she had a date. So he said he wanted to meet me. She says he is like her little brother. He is 18 and she is 20. She told me they have a weird friendship because he hangs out at her house alot. Which for the most part they are alone. We have talked about cheating and I told her that was one thing that I could not stand. She said she could never do that to me. So I do trust her but it really makes me uncomfortable because he's an attractive guy and we all know how 18 year old guys are. I know very few guys around that age that like to hang out with a girl unless they want something out of it. Also that night we were lying in bed and it was 12:30 and he sent her text asking if she was still up. Which was the 2nd time he texted her that night. They have known each other about a year and I have no idea if they have had sex or not. What should I do? I don't want to be controlling.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Girlfriend has this guy friend? What should I do?

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Not much you can do, her actions and behavior are changing the nature of your relationship with her.
As always, I would take attention away from her and focus on other girls. Once she knows you are valuable to other girls, she'll wake up.

This other guy might be a total AFC in the dreaded friend zone! HaHaHa!
Based on the info you gave, it's tough to give a direction here. Maybe your gut is telling you something. All I can say is try to maintain your dominant, confident attitude as a sexual male. You both have made it clear that cheating is not tolerable on both your ends, so now get past it and don't revisit that topic unless absolutely necessary.
Keep doing what you did to attract her, and maybe even bump the confidence up a notch or two... For example, the next time he texts in the middle of the night, say something like, "You need to go?" or "Everything OK with Brad?" You are not saying anything bad about the guy (or her), but are actually sounding confident in yourself. And she will give a response to your question as a bonus!

I don't see too many problems here.
He sounds like a pathetic orbiter AFC m@sturbating over her while using his tears as lube while sitting well and truly in the friend zone.
Maybe she introduced you to him so she could get him to back off. There's also the chance she's a damn attention wh0re using you to pique the other guy's interest or just to get off on two guys chasing her.
Most 18yo guys have no real game. I wouldn't be too worried about him. But go with your gut.
Did she reply to that late night text? Does she text him while she's with you?
If it's obvious she's playing you both off against each other, pull waaaay back.

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
How long have you been hooking up with this girl for? If your answer is anytime less than 3 months (minimum), you have no business calling her your girlfriend, let alone being exclusive with this chick. Even if you are not actively pursuing other chicks, you should at least keep your options open.adamw5963 said:
Why? Because of the mindset that freedom gives you. Having a "I don't give a damn" attitude is actually good for the relationship, it will keep the girl on her toes while at the same time getting her more and more into you.
And one of the questions you wouldn't have to ask is "girlfriend has this guy friend, what should I do?"
There yah go.adamw5963 said:
YOU are having sex with her so why are you worried? Hot girls usually will have orbiters. There's a reason YOU are fvcking her while they aren't. My gf has orbiters as well. Am I worried? Not really because I know at the end of the day when they are texting her, my penis is inside of her.
