I would ignore them love. She might be trying to make you jealous telling you these things so I would rise above it and not read too much into it. Tell her they sound really immature jerks then change the subject.

She doesn't have to tell these guys to stop this behaviour in a nasty way or hurt their feelings at all; you can be perfectly polite about such things! I do agree with cd206m, that she is with you and not them, but I can also understand why this might make you feel a bit insecure. Just try explaining how you feel about this issue to her; don't make a big deal of it or get angry - I'm sure she'll be able to see things from your point of view and put paid to the matter =)

She's with you. If she wanted to be with one of the other guys she would be. If you try to control her then you'll end up pushing her into their arms.
