Women are a funny lot

So, i'm at a work christmas party today and i'm sitting at the bar chatting it up with a friend. A female friend. And attractive female friend.  A childhood friend from another office (this is a multi-office party).

what's funny is that if I wasn't talking with her, most of the other party guests would just let me be, but since I was talking to this good looking girl, it seemed like every girl i know wanted attention.

Even my friend whom i was chatting it up with  pointed this out to me.  She was starting to become a little annoyed that as we kept to ourselves, someone else came by to get me into conversation and always another female.  She found this quite humorous.
