Women have subtle and not-so-subtle ways of letting the rest of the world know their man is taken. These eight ways women mark their territory will save you from wondering how involved a guy is, and if you’re in a relationship already, then you’ve got some work to do.
- Quite obvious one—leaving any kind of feminine product—from Tampons to flatirons—at her guy’s home.
- Giving her guy a framed photo of the two of them for his desk at work.
- Making subtle changes to her man’s decor, like changing the gender neutral dish towels to a floral pattern.
- He, all of a sudden, has tons of toilet paper.
- His apartment now smells like vanilla, as opposed to gym socks or a dirty trash can.
- His pet likes to cuddle up to her stuff too.
- Gives his mom a gift that she actually appreciates and displays in her home.
- He not only gets bi-weekly manicures, but also pedicures.

my wife used to leave ear rings all over the place when we were dating which I was always convinced was marking thing since she was (/is) fairly neat otherwise. nowadays its bras - not underwear or other clothes (other than shoes which everybody does), just bras which I’ve given up hope on breaking. the funniest thing she ever did was when she found out the gay guy who sat across from me thought I was cute (I didn’t mind/I’m about the most gay-friendly straight man alive/he & I were “work friends” anyway) she apparently came over to check him out (she/I met @ work). I came back from lunch one day and he came over & asked me if I told her about him/his joking about me. I said yes and asked why to which he replied that she had come over to my desk ostensibly looking for me but obviously checking him out/giving him the “stay away!” look - we both got a big laugh out of it (& he came to our wedding a couple of years later)...

is there anything to do about in public or at bars? there are girls that know my man’s taken but still tries to get on him, EVEN when I’m around.

I left underwear at my husband’s when we were dating.
The best day was when he gave me a small drawer to store my stuff and I noticed the underwear already in there. One pair wasn’t mine.

I have a toothbrush at his place and one got old so he kept it to clean his car parts, which I think is a bit gross but cute all the same. =)
