The Envious Boy-friend

By "boy-friend" I don't mean an actual boyfriend, but someone who is the male friend of a female. This guy is always hanging around, and usually secretly in love with his female friend, even though she has no interest in him. He goes everywhere with her and tries to sabotage her relationships by telling her all the things that are wrong with her potential beaus. He also tries to show up other males who may or may not be interested in this girl, only because he fears that he may never have a chance if she hooks up with someone else.

Usually this character is portrayed sympathetically in movies, but in actuality, this fellow is quite annoying. However, the girl involved usually can make her own decisions, and the jealous boy-friend will usually be too nice to step in and overtly cause any problems.
