I disagree, if she tells me she finds a guys then I dont see that as disrespect, excessively yes, but not in a normal quantity.
My gf keeps telling me how hot her guy friend is

The title of the post says
My gf keeps telling me how hot her guy friend is
Not
my GF mentioned once this guy was hot
So yes, she is doing it all the time. Therefore it's disrepectful.
I have been in a room before when I was sitting down with a girl and she wuld say a guy is hot, I don't give a damn. But it's pretty ovbious that if she keeps talking about this one guy that she knows in particular, she is doing more than just saying he is hot, she is fantising about him and wants him.
One day my GF and I got into a huge fight because I said Ciara looks like she is good in bed. I explained to her that I don't want to **** her, I just think she might be good in bed.
However, even though I calmed her down, I was lying, because I would tax the **** out of Ciara.
You don't see a hot woman and not think about about in some way banging the **** out of her. It's human nature.
I don't expect my GF to not have thoughts about other hot guys from time to time, however they should be just that... thoughts.

Once again, thanks for all your replies. This site really is worth its weight in gold.
I've decided that if she mentions him again, I will put my foot down and lay down some groundrules, basically let her know it's unacceptable for her to keep saying things like that. I think she will ultimately respect me more if I DO say something, as what girls want is a MAN not a nice guy. I won't lose my cool, but I will tell her firmly and assertively that her behaviour is unacceptable.

Just cheat on her.
Disclaimer: as my username suggests, I'm female, but have no weird motives for posting here. I've just been reading these boards and finding them enlightening and entertaining in equal measure, so I thought I'd give something back. Hope it helps.
Sounds potentially worrying, particularly the "telling you you're bigheaded" bit. At the "almost as gorgeous as me" line, it's simply good manners to say, "Indeed, no one could hold a candle to your splendour" or "Nah, he's better looking, but I'm sure you make better cups of tea. Speaking of which..." Such a response indicates that she thinks he's better looking and you'll have to live with that, but that it's you that she's fond of. A *****y reply is Not Good. To give one in the first few weeks of going out would serve to keep you on your toes, but you're past that stage.
Of course, her professed interest in him might be totally innocuous: she might have no real designs on him or anyone else. Some girls just have *really* poor judgement about how much time they should spend thinking about other men and who they should mention it to. If this is the case, then a simple "you know what? I don't care. Now get over him, ok?" should be sufficient.
But I think you need to establish whether this is in fact the situation. You may be able to get him to stop her from talking about him, but will she stop *thinking* about him and anyone else she finds attractive? Women have crushes on other men from time to time - it can't be helped - but it's good grace to attempt to get over them ASAP, never mind relishing in them. How would she respond if he (or someone else she liked) showed an interest in her? If she wants to go out with you, she needs to indicate that she's happy to do so, and isn't going to trade you in for a better model as soon as one comes along.
As to how to deal with it? On the rare occasion that I admitted to my ex that I found a guy attractive, he'd calmly say, "Oh yes? Do you want to go out with him, then?" to which I'd answer "Nah, it wouldn't work" or "Well, in another situation, maybe, but I'm with you and that's fine with me" accordingly, and all was well. So you might want to ask that if she brings the subject up again.
A bit of "testing the water" in this respect is sensible (since some men get ridiculously jealous), such as commenting on other guys occasionally or hanging out with male friends unaccompanied. But this is taking it too far for it to be a test, unless she's trying to establish where your cut-off point is as to what you'll tolerate (but that seems unlikely). Ask what she's trying to achieve.
