I'd say it's more about validation and self-esteem than it is about sex. Haven't you ever had a boy compliment you on your appearance and not wanted to sleep with him as a result? Even compliments coming from the hideously unattractive or your mom feel kinda good. It's just better when someone cute pays attention to you, though, partially for sex, I suppose...but mainly because a total hottie thinks YOU'RE fun/cute/smart enough to flirt with. Know what I mean? Even if the thought of boning them never enters either of your minds, it's still pretty enjoyable. Oh, and no apology necessary. :) Wellll, I wouldn’t say it has NOTHING to do with sex…but there’s definitely a lot more to it. I’d say it’s more about validation and self-esteem than it is about sex.

I do, however, take umbrage to the assertion that all dudes have dicks for brains, much in the same way womankind would take offense if plaintively told them they all had pussies for brains. We all like sex, right? And besides, it's entirely possible that it's not a sexual thing, and that your boyfriend is clueless as to this girl's true motives. Let's be honest, men are notoriously oblivious to subtle machinations of this type. And like Steph says, he probably likes the attention. Who among us DOESN'T enjoy it when an attractive member of the opposite sex pays attention to them? In his mind it's probably all harmless...but it's obviously not harmless to you, and that should be what matters.
